No matter how AAA a Sandbox MMO, and no matter how non-Buggy it is, it will always be ruined by Western Player culture.
Thats the problem that needs to be fixed.
Developers give players the option to ruin other's experience, these Sandbox MMO games will never grow.
Culture cannot be "fixed". It is what it is. And why is it a "problem"? If the culture is not conducive to good sandbox games, play something else.
If you can't change the culture to fit the product then why wouldn't you change the product to fit the market.
I have never understood this silly you can't have consensual pvp servers in my sandbox because it would ruin my experience even though I'm not even playing on that server. Purest stupidity plan and simple. Let's make sandbox developer so impossible that no one wants to touch one with a 50 foot pole.

Labels are ruining my immersion.
