I play for fun, some of these people seriously need lives and/or some type of therapy - talk about anger issues. No one seems to have any patience for the noobs.

Also - PvP realms means you are subject to constant (i can't think of the word) - death by high level toons, just 'cause they can.
I wasn't able to quest or farm without having some high level toon gank (there you go) my ass even though I was at least 20 levels lower. I dreaded the contested areas. Once I transferred to a PvE realm, breathing was easier.

I prefer PvE because you can toggle yourself as PvP if the mood strikes .. and you can always go into BGs and that of the like. Just a thought to consider.
Agreed but I've also seen the same behaviour in Raids (LFG). I've been booted because apparently I didn't pull my weight (I was 13th out of 25 so not sure where that came from and figure it was more about loot than anything else). I started on a PVP server (Kilrogg) and got ganked a few times. When I was high enough, I ensured that those that were attacked -- and I was close enough -- I'd go and help them. Ganking shouldn't be allowed, IMO (should only be able to attack someone no more than 5 levels below and how many ever levels above).
