Just pointing out that those against power leveling also should be against this, as someone who goes from the minimum level of participation to cap in PvP will be worthless -- in their definition -- in PvE.

This is most people's experience with RPG PvP. Only time I've ever encountered it myself was in Diablo and it made me loathe PvP in RPGs -- mostly because it consists of some over-powered low life berating you and your brand new character into a duel, killing you in one hit, then acting like they won some hard-fought battle.
I'm sorry if that is that is the "most people's experience with RPG PvP.". I have experienced that as well... However that doesn't mean PvP is bad, whether you like it or not there are always going to be assholes like that, however if they do that, they are NOT good AT all. Besides, he said nothing about duels at all, just Frontlines and Coliseum.

That is completely wrong, I PvP to have fun, and pass time, I also take it seriously and love to win, however, I do not SUCK at PvE at all. It's good to know everything about your class, not just the PvE aspects of it, or the PvP aspects of it as well. Also, People really shouldn't play this game for the PvP, we don't even know how much EXP we will get from PvP, get from winning, what the PvP is going to be like, etc etc... But saying that people who PvP will know shit about their class is wrong. Plus, if that is your only experience with PvP, you should get around a lot more. If your so against it, you should learn more about it.
Just IMO.
