Also if a server is going to be manual/auto/both isn't that up to the admin of that server? or does NI have like 10 of its own servers under the NI admins? if someone could clear this up for me that would be great because i have little to no knowledge of the mechanics of M&B
If anyone is confused, this poll is for just ONE! server in NA, and there will still be plenty others with autoblock enabled. Think of it as a test run

Then sorry for my vote, its not my place to vote for a NA server since i'm an EU player. All i said was for the whole NordInvasion about the blocking.
I see that archers think melee classes are there to hold mobs if they come close, to keep killing them in range; and melee players think archers are there to weaken the wave while infantry kill the mobs . So which one is right? Do you guys expect me to hold a shield and dont move an inch? Guess what, i play to get into melee, to kill them in melee. Dont get me wrong, i dont rush to mobs to kill them alone; i usually stay with the group and only rush front if we have a person left behind. I think staying as a group is the only way to survive in NI. But as an infantry, close fight is the only way for me to get a kill unlike others.
There maybe another reasons for melee classes to rush. Maybe they rush because they know that achers also can kill as much as infantry in melee too, and since they can wear nearly as good armor, infantry may think "So they kill from a range, they kill in melee, and they have as good protection as me. So why should i wait here to protect them? They can protect themselves huh!" Maybe we need more distinctions between classes to improve teamwork. Dont put all the blame on autoblock please.
Also yes, maybe its no challenge while fighting against the first 5-6 waves, but when you're fighting against huscarls, their axes will wake you up that they are not there for a picnic even if you have autoblock...
