There's something the majority doesn't seem to know about BWM: they aren't that many online. People probably think TTTLA just got something like 12 active pvp players in their ranks while in reality the number is like 1-3 active guys. At least I haven't seen more than 3 BWM members in one place.
It's a problem with all small gangs, getting people online and doing stuff. Going pvp with 2 or 3 guys without chance of reinforcements just isn't worthwhile. There's nothing wrong with teaming up with other active players, that way you can mostly get a pvp group assembled and chance to get reinforcements if enemy has superior numbers. When enemy has more people, for small gang it just means withdrawal from action and more boredom for everyone.
