ontop of that you get lots of raids and shit going on stil no difference pve wise on a pvp server just added fun of pvp which you need to learn to do anyways or your farked in any encounter you get into

Because some of us just play this game to relax, we don't want the stress of having to watch everything all the time. Also not everyone likes PvP in the first place.

i have never once worried about been ganked while leveling on a pvp server there is no stress fine if someone wants to kill you they can but so can you to others it just adds and extra level at the end of the game and makes more sense to the story to be on pvp even before wotlk and the full out alliance/horde war rather then just hostile enemies (the whole wrathgate thing)

I always grind with a friend. He's a mage, I'm a pally. There have been times we've ran across Horde in contested territory. It gives us something to do when the quest item drop rates are low and the mob spawns are slow.

Plus it sort of prepares us for pvp later on. Always being alert in case of a gank. We own. Easily take people 10 levels higher than us.

That was corpse camping hours without you even ressing mate. ;)

I dislike PvP anyway. Only PvP I like is AB, and that's only because I like seize and control gametypes.

I solo about 90% of my time so far (Rogue=Stealth=Can do most quests). I have no desire to log off if I am corpse camped or to walk a 1/2 mile if I am ganked while questing. As a matter of fact, some evenings I have about 30 minutes of max online time and if I wanted to run do a couple of quests and got ganked or had to log out for 10-15minutes because of corpse campers, I would probably just quit the game.

I come home from 10 hour work days, help my two boys with homework, wife with dinner, run outside and do anything yard-wise I can (granted I get home close to 6pm and it is getting dark). I do this 5 days a week and when I get to the point of being able to sit down in front of the PC and log in, I want to relax and mindlessly veg out. Oh don't get me wrong, there is enough in game to get my adrenaline going even on my lame PVE server.

I immediately sign up for all 4 BGs and I could, if I wanted to, just stay in one the whole time I am online. But I do a few BGs, practice my pvp, skills sets, etc and get back to questing. I also am now doing pvp daily where I am flagged the whole time and have been having some nice little tower battles (I am finding a partner of a group to run these with. I could also leave the PVP flag on 24/7 if I wanted and I always see those that are flagged. So yeah, I could pvp on a pve server all the time but I really like to relax while questing, mining, exploring, doing achievements, etc. To each his own.
