Why equal TB rewards is bad for the game.

Ok...ok...ok...
I've been playing this game since Nov 15' changed OS in Jan 16' and currently have a galatic power of just over 2 million... im not a big spender, but ive bought some "good deals" and a few bad ones.
I started my guild when guilds came out, I've always sought to help newer players... because most advanced players are guildhopping, backstabbing, gearhawgs... ive never really enfoced any rules other than log in every 30 days... which has been uped to every 14 days now with TB coming.
My guild regularly does T7 pit 1 per week and a T4/5 per week. We do AAT only and are very close to starting our first HAAT. We have about 20-30 members participate in T7 & AAT... half of which are peeps in the 1 million+ galactic power range.
Bottom line is i have always ALWAYS said that this is a game we play to have FUN!
As a member of GOH community from launch, and a guild that has watched how so many purposefully leeched off other guilds to unlock GK... I am very happy to see that the rewards will be equalized... this means my guild can now directly help our newer members advance quicker and this is a good thing.
What im saying is my guild has progressed naturally, without unnaturally juicing our roster... and without any real type of rule enforcement... everyone has been very helpful and great team players. Sure some have left for mega guilds and unlocked GK. And thats not a bad thing...
My ulitimate point here is this... if you have GK unlocked and your commenting in this thread on how reward equalization is good or bad, you are more guilty than others of guild manipulation. And reward equalization will still help everyone, but will mainly help the guilds that have not actively tried to manipulate the rewards payout.
I am in no way saying that restructuring your guild last summer in anticipation of AAT raid is wrong. Or joining a HAAT guild just to do 1 pt of dmg to earn GK shards is wrong. What im saying is that if you have GK unlocked, then your guild is SO FAR AHEAD of a naturally grown guild, that you are missing the point. Reward equalization is only equal to what you have already accomplished by unlocking GK (some more than others) and that by disapproving of reward equalization you might as well have your GK removed... think about that, and if you had your GK removed and were no longer able to join a guild thats HAAT ready, would you still want to disapprove of reward equalization?
Reward equalization will grow the base of new players faster, thus increasing the longevity of the game overall.
Those of you who have GK unlocked have done SOMETHING it make it so... and extending this same benifit to everyone, ESPECIALLY the newer GOH members is a win for us all, once you look past your immediate self.
I agree a hundred percent I'm in a casual guild I could probably move to a stronger guild but for me it's about playing and we have several level 85s non of us are past a million galactic power but we are all getting stronger and I think the equal rewards raises the lowest and the highest so we all win
