Warning, rant/flame ahead. PvP and people who assume the game is only for it pushes a lot of hotbuttons for me.

News to me. Druids get four different shapeshifts - two of them are cats.

Congratulations. You have discovered the entire purpose of PvP.

it seems both forces thought of the same tactic. all mages and ranged attackers thew bolts buttelts and arrows.
That doesn't sound like a tactic so much as simply what those classes do.

Intelligent players will normally kill the priests, so they aren't HEALING.

they slowly lured us to the city. We didnt know untill it was to late.
That's pretty common knowledge. Maybe you didn't know, but I'm sure *somebody* among those 89 people did. I'm surprised you only had 3 guards. Usually a whole army of them spawns.

mostly low lvlers i was one but i managed to kill a weakened lv 25 tauren warrior!
Wow, you big brute you. What level are you, out of curiosity? And was this on a stress test server? Cause 25 is not remotely high level in my definition. (It might also incline me to retract a few other remarks.)

if the players name is blue you cannnot engage them. these players WIll NOT be affected in any way when a raid goes on thus you will not ruin their play time and Grievers will shun this game.
This is completely false. You can kill quest NPCs. You create horrible lag. I'm willing to bet that well over half the people that did not want to have anything to do with your raid logged off, and that's including some of those that rallied to stave you off. I know because I've done exactly that when it has happened - a level 15 horde member in the Crossroads is going to do exactly squat in a raid of level 40+ alliance members, and vice versa in Auberdine or Goldshire.

every time the horde would yell or say somthing it was somthing we could not understand thus keeping their tactics hidden from us. the same would be when the horde would see us yell or say somthing.
Undead understand common.

What i don't like about PvE servers is that most people that go there don't want to engage in battle, also many like to roleplay which to me is idiodic.
I don't like to do either, really. I'll opt for the RP over the PvP any day though.
Quote:
Also i don't like the fact that most raids will be only city raids.
What else are you going to raid? Some hermit's shack? Randomly encountering other people does not constitute a raid.

I also don't like to play with whiners, crybabys, and such and such.
I don't like to play with people who don't like things.

I'm not saying everyone there is but some people on that server go beserk when they see a guy name "ubarorc".
I wouldn't call myself a role-player, but I get pretty sick of names like this too. It gives me a certain stereotype of the mindset of the player, and I rarely will group with people with completely dumb names. (xxxNaMeS wITh CaPS or StuFF B4 teHm R w0rsexxx) It just shows a complete lack of creativity on the player's part, and an overall lack of care about the fact that he is supposed to be a person and not an instant messenger handle. This was pretty bad when I got into the beta in phase 2, when names like xxLeeTPRoToSSxx were prevalent.

PvE server will be a safe haven for people who don't want to have to deal with PvP. Call me whatever names you like, but I absolutely loathe PvP, and feel it has very little place in an MMORPG.
