Player Vs Player servers add areas where you'll be flagged for PvP all the time, meaning anyone on the opposite faction can attack you. You'll be safe in your own territory though, unless you decide to engage in PvP against a wandering enemy, they'll not be able to attack you.

Player Vs Environment has no PvP areas. You can choose to engage in PvP where you want, even disengaging if you wish.

With the current Honor System, your best bet will be to go PvE. It's not fun on PvP at the moment, so unless you enjoy being killed by players 60 levels above you, and who then turn around and utter moronic insults as to how you should "live with it because it's PvP blah blah blah" stick with the old PvE.

On Rp and Normal servers entering contested areas does not automatically flag you for PvP, the games longevity is also aided by finding a good guild.

What's the difference about servers?

I mean is it as simple as:

-One has constant PvP
-One has periods of PvP

?

You can cultivate a good beard in a month so you will look the part.

Whatever.
Is there still a lot of n00bs turning up?

It'll take me about a month to figure out which server to go on, then which mode, then which race, then which class.
Bah.

Nope, you'll be at 1.

But anyway, I don't really care. To be honest, most of the people I "party" with are pretty decent - and I know why. See, all these retards and six year olds see Alliance and go "Ooooh, I want to be a good guy! Me me me!" whereas most Horde players are, well, older.

I'm probably going out on a limb here, but most people I've encoutered have been decent. I ran into a lvl 28 Alliance Rogue after defending the Crossroads from a massive raid (wahey, 6 HKs at lvl 19) and he started attacking me. Being a Hunter, I knew he'd rape me, so started dancing, and he just ran away. Yay.

Hmmm. I'm damn well tempted to try and find someone with a guest disk or something, cos I don't know anyone who has one.

On a related matter, anyone know anything about wireless routers?

I could do with one to help this go along.

Well, my Gfx card is causing me trouble. 2d apps only (the fan grinds like hell on a 3d app)

Choices choices.

1) Return a RMA to Germany, which will then be shipped to Taiwan and back. (god knows how much time)
2) Fit a Zelman 3rd party cooler and thus void the rest of my warrany. (possibly have time to fit it on the weekend)

Minimum week off. Crap. I can feel the withdrawls already.....
