Step 1: Be new to PvP.
Step 2: Make char.
Step 3: Get in an actual fight.
Step 4: Die in 1 minute.
Step 5: Wait 2 hours.
Sorry but this doesn't fit any possible definitions of "fun" or "training".

And this is a bad thing how exactly?

There's no training like on-the-job-training, learn when it's time to fish or cut bait/time to *make mud* or get off the pot, time to stop using Conn as a pew-party and get down to the real business of being the character you spent hours designing
Again, the same thing. How you are supposed to "*BE* your character" if every time you try to do something that doesn't involve a lot of talking you die in a minute or so? Remember, not everyone here is a PvP pro already.

Silly argument (doubtful) or not, how is this relevant in any way to this discussion? Having to travel to Connecticut caused a lot OORP situations (Turtles and Ranseurs passing through NY and such) that are, fortunately, a thing of the past.

For example, as KNF, I often train by Fuchu or the BS Matsumato
How is training near some random base any better than training in Connecticut? Remember you have to gather the faction members in a single place in order to train. In some cases that would require a lot of time that can be spent better. For example flying somewhere out of Connecticut after training.
Last, why are you (4-5 people) that hell-bent on removing Connecticut? If you don't like it don't go there. It doesn't affect you in any way (don't tell me about lag; it happens even with 30 people on the server). Simple.
P.S. I'm not going to argue here about Connecticut's right to exist anymore as it isn't the original purpose of the thread. It seems to work no better than arguing with a TV anyway.
