I agree with some things, but I am totally against these squards/group changes. WwW has 2 main problems currently, too many servers (NA) and few active players, squads that are in WvW to simply bag farm (disguised pve) while enemies take it all. Raising pips for this type of group is just alleviating the problem and rewarding this type of player.
WvW needs rewards that encourage disputes to increase the tier of its server, there has to be a complete rework to also avoid those kangaroo players who are jumping from link to link. For this, ArenaNet has to put something that is worth staying on the server and improve the population.
