Petition threads being a no no aside, your petition and perception of the need there of doesnt actually match the reality of the intent of the devs and the game. All these issues are non issues once you stop feeling you need to keep mismatching your wants with the 860 or so official servers and instead shift to the 30,000+ unofficial servers out there which accomodate your wants as intended.

I agree that small tribe/alliance servers wouldnt stop mega tribes or other people if they wanted to have an "unofficial" alliance/tribe. They could still share resources/dinos and through discord, raid together.

For a PVP server with small tribes the idea sounds good but what measures would be taken, that wouldnt limit the gameplay of official PVP?

As much as I like the idea of having OFFICIAL-PVP small-tribe servers I honestly cant think of a way to stop people from exploiting the game while still allowing the normal ruleset. The best solution I can think of would be having an active moderator for the server but that would require Wildcard to hire someone for that...

Even with my doubt that small-tribe could work on unmoderated Official-PVP, I still think Wildcard should go ahead and try it. The upcoming "speciallty" servers could be a good time to see how players would exploit the system. Than, WC would have to figure out a way to prevent unofficial tribes/alliances from resource/dino sharing and working together to raid, which solution would require some moderate changes to the system but at the same time we wouldnt want the inablitly to able loot other people and their stuff.

I do think however that if they somehow created a system that could prevent unofficial alliances/tribes WITHOUT limiting the gameplay, that OFFICIAL-SMALLTRIBE-PVP could be an awesome game mode. Yes, there is 1000's of unnofficial servers but those could come with problems of unfair moderators/rules, not having acess to a large pool of cross serving raiding and the servers could close whenever and you would have wasted all your time.

I understand that it should be a players choice.
But in my mind the only real way to deal with this mega trive issue os to leave them be. After some time of "owning" a server with no new peeps comming in. They will get bored and leave.
Imo this is a big deal because peeps make the choice to fight it.
The only way to get the attention of the devs on this topic is to no joke. Boycott official servers. Once the pop start going down and wc responds to that. Then take a run at officials.
This is hardly an issue wc can or will dral with because many of them are ligit players.

Does konda suck for the new palyers wanting to support wc.s officails. But really other then this which has been done before. What other choice do u have.

Smaller tribes with even no alliances have made no difference on the "Beginner" Official Servers.

there is no changing human nature except by them choosing to change, No software or server settings can control that.

This is exactly what unofficial servers are for.

The official game meta is set, it's too late to change it.

I didnt make this petition.

I'm not for getting rid of the official servers or the rules.
And this is why I'm sharing this petition.

I'm for adding new official servers with tribe size limits and alliance limits, without having to join an unofficial server.

I disagree on having to rely on unofficial servers for this.

Wildcard have official ORP servers, or the new "bob" servers. Just to mention some different but still "official" servers.

Official PVP servers as we know them today should in my opinion be as they are, or be the "meta".
Specialty servers might be a perfect place to test out this with different tribe size/alliance limit.

Then you should of made a post about what you would like to see.

No tribes or alliances is speciality ruleset. Heaps of people play solo I'm sure a few servers with that ruleset would be full.

You run smaller tribes / alliances you are just going to get a mega tribe splinter and destroy you just the same.
