Nobody is going to stick around when they are getting lamed over and over.

Then make it your mission to fight for the new guys. I'll be doing that - more rewarding and more fun. Be the batman gk needs

Adding a min level and forcing bmode wont do this justice either. Level 54 Physique is a very low level for forcing bmode as well. The whole forcing anything is simply going to cause problems. We want to attract players to the server not force them to leave because of something like this.

You simply can't know if it would make the community better or worse until you try it out. Also I'm talking 54 base level as a minimum. That's just to prevent actual bile laming with death runes and such. If you feel 54 is too low then maybe make it 80? You have a base health pool of 280 at that level. If you had the time and gear to grind to level 80 you have the gear to fight off the big bad wolf when he comes for you.
