    Most MMO pvp is never very much fun to me for a few reasons.

    1. Healers always end up overpowered. Until MMO devs realize healing should delay death instead of preventing death (there is a difference) it won't get any better. It's not fun to be standing there wailing on people for 5-10 minutes with no one really dying unless the healer falls asleep because it's all so tedious. I'm going to go ahead and say it, I think PVP would be better without healing.

    2. Class balance/role trumps skill. In most cases unless there is a noticeable disparity in gear, certain classes always outshine others or end up being mostly useless.

    3. The community. I never see people rage really hard anywhere but in PVP. Yeah I see people get frustrated doing PVE to but never as badly as in PVP content.

    Those three reasons are what turned me off most to MMO PVP. If I want really balanced and engaging PVP I'll just play Pong. >_>

    Unfortunately that's a PVP norm. You're expected to act like a 10 year old kid who recently learned how to curse, to PVP properly.

    A mentor stole my house, slapped me across the face, and raised my ping from 15 to 30. Literally unplayable.
