re: PvP in MMO's, why is it always broken?

AV was amazing and it felt like a huge accomplishment when you won before the blitz became popular. The couple day long AV's were way more fun than the zergs.

There was always a group of assholes that would bitch and gripe if you stopped to kill people on the plains between the two bases. It basically became raiding an empty city.

Vanilla WoW had some good PvP, we had a group that hit up WSG in nothing but bullshite grey and green gear to look like farmers, magicians, and other dumb shite and went like 30-1 one night only losing 3-2 to a team that was decked out in BWL gear. Seemed like as the expansions came the gear scaled more for the raids to make a huge gap at top level.
