The massive team vs team PVP was non-existent when I visited the PVP island. At least on World 10.

I didn’t say that swapping weapons was all you can do — I said it is the thing you do most often. Armour swapping, weapon swapping, either way its not helping make the game a role-playing game.

I was not aware that the EXP penalty was instituted previously for PVP. That is quite amazing! Im glad to hear that the players are demanding things and CipSoft is listening.

And I think he took my FS because I said “yo mamma” and attacked him from out of nowhere.

Let me add some corrections and comments:
1. TibiaME Gold client only enables an ingame minimap, a Who’s Online list, and a Top100 list. It has surely nothing to do with dungeons.
2. Aurea is in no way a “PvP Island”, the one that is actually called so is the special Arena island, that can be accessed from Aurea (find Gladus to the North of the Arena and he will teleport you, even if you don’t have a Premium character). The main purpose of the Arena island is allowing massive team vs team battles.
3. There are actually vocation-dependant quest rewards, and a quest on a Vargos island requires a team of both warriors and wizards (they get teleported to different dungeons, opening paths to each other by pressing buttons correspondingly) for successful completion.
4. Choosing a weapon is not the only choice players have, usually the armour (consists of 6 parts) is a much more important choice, and you might even have to combine your armour against some special creatures or dungeons.
5. About the “story”… Well, CipSoft didn’t really care of developing a main storyline all these years, however the last updates include a long storyline, which leads you through the Aurea (start by talking to Vladir), all Solahmar Islands, and all Ashmor. It even involves choosing yourself a side (a flavour of a non-linear quest). Actually all the great innovative additions to the game were made in 2007, and they’re not that easy to find for a newbie.
6. About the 2% experience loss in the Arena “addition”, and ability to lose millions of experience… This game had 10% (5% for Premium players) experience loss in the Arena since it’s birth actually (i remember how a Top1 player was hacked and executed in the Arena in 2005 till he hit lvl1), and removing the loss recently was CipSoft’s idea. The “user base” is very critical about that, but by removing the loss CipSoft actually wanted a basis for a new PvP system they are going to build, and any player can contribute his own ideas to it on the forums.
7. The “damage evasion exploit”, usually called “dancing”, was actually “half-fixed” (you could kill a monster with it usually three times faster then you can now).
x. Java port is not recommended – it has much less performance and convenience then the original game for S60.
y. Oh, and a fire sword actually has no value in the game, it’s strange that a player 30 levels above you actually took it.
