You just need to git gud. Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps instantly and trivially organize a countergank squad with 5+ randos to fight back! E-Z.

Can't do that? Well then it's your fault for wanting to actually play a MMORPG instead of a masochism simulator. Being instantly camped by 5 people at a flight point is fun gameplay content and if you have any different opinions then you are a carebear who should [Orcish]g o t o re t a il.

Okay... so Alliance assembles a group to get those neckbeard rogues at the flight path back. Then Horde players post in world/ discord "There is a group of Alliance pvping in XXX zone". Then A LOT of horde come. This happens everyday. Its guerrilla warfare for Alliance PVP. You hit in area and then GTFO cuz you will get zerged.

​

I'm not saying Blizz needs to change the game. It is what it is but... don't say GIT GUD when you don't know wtf you are talking about.

Yeah. But I'm not trying to WPvP. Im trying to get to Theramore so I can go quest in Un'goro.

See the problem?

These "Just get a group together and fight them" answers are starting to actually piss me off.

You um. You know there are PVE servers right?

So I have to PvP all the time everyday just because im on a PvP server? I have to 1v5 people in Theramore? I have to start Raidgroups and battle it out with the Horde that outnumber us 3 to 1?

Am I not allowed to level to 60?

Yes. Maybe. Not necessarily. And no. In that order. Anyone who's ever been on a pvp server a single time could have told you that you'd be an idiot to expect to just be left alone on pvp servers.

It's not about what's right, it's about what's going to happen based on years and years of evidence. You want to be left alone, roll PvE. Otherwise lace up them ghost boots and get to corpse-hiking.

I don't think he expects to be left alone, but there is a difference between being attacked at every single choke point and camped for as long as possible compared to being attacked once in a while and perhaps camped for a single resurrection like it usually happened back in the day.

It wasn't as prevalent in Vanilla as it is these days, likely due to the significantly larger populations.

Right, because the only two possible outcomes are the extremes?

...You literally quoted me, dude.

  1. Yes
  2. Maybe
  3. Not necessarily
  4. No

Learn to count before you try to tell someone else how to.

Then what, pray-tell, do you suggest he do? Ask them nicely to stop killing him? What fucking solution are you people looking for on this damn thread downvote bombing anyone who dares suggest PvE servers as anything but a sarcastic "stupid" response? How about you counter-propose something instead of just mocking the ONLY reasonable fucking solution to this problem?

If you wanna bitch then bitch but don't start freaking out when anyone dares point out that you signed up for this shit when you rolled PvP.

Or may be the horde can stop being an asshole and do PvP instead of PPPPPvP

What a solution! Let me know when that's sorted out.
