Summary: PvE stuff inside of PvP areas

You know, I do wonder how some of the players here would have coped with the early (and in my respects) better MMORPG's of the past.
Games like UO forced you to venture into the most dangerous areas to get the "best stuff". In these areas you would find the strongest monsters but at the same time you were away from the protection of town - you could be killed by other players.
No flags, no switches - you could just be killed.

I remember a cycle as people started playing UO. Initially they would post on the forums about these killers. How they ruined the game, how it wasn't fair.
Slowly they grew to realise that firstly they added a sense of danger actually making things more exciting and that it was logical to gain those rarer items you have to take risks and venture into the more dangerous areas.

And so full circle we go. Once again the complaints begin. Lets hope people are like the UO communities of old and grow to realise that just getting the best things without risk really is not fun.
UO added a safe world - you could go to all the dangerous areas but other player couldn't attack you. Subscriptions fell every year from that point onwards.

Hanging around in Outlaws den during the HK release is the most fun I've had in SW:TOR in months.

I play on a PVE server because when leveling, I don't want to be ganked, i just wanna level and get past it. However, I love pvp, much more than pve, and I especially love open world pvp. I went to outlaws den solo and killed people, both imps and rep, for maybe 3 hours. I started with the philosophy of "if its red, its dead". Then, when I noticed people who were dying a lot, I'd then help them out. I also attacked large groups whilst solo (managed to kill 4 at once) so I couldn't really be accused of ganking. In short, it was great, and it renewed my faith in the game for a short time.

If you want world PVP, go on a PVP server. On a PVP server you should be auto-flagged for PVP everywhere.

If you're on a PVE server you should never be auto-flagged for PVP. Ever. At all. Except if you choose to go do a warzone obviously.

If you don't like it, skip it. It's PvP content, not PvE.

If it's pvp content and it offers only pvp rewards then fine. If it's pve rewards then we have a problem.

Or......If you enter one of the 2 PvP zones. They're no different than warzones in terms of VOLUNTARY participation/entry.

Not EVERY PvEer is anti-PvP. If you don't like it, skip it. It's PvP content, not PvE. In order to enjoy it, you know you're risking having to PvP...so if PvP is that scary to you...just skip it!!!!

Would you consider cosmetics, vehicles or pets "PvE" rewards? Or would it be ok if they were PvP exclusives, like the MOGUL droid or speeders are PvE specific?
