It is high time they disabled this "world PVP" in the zones, because for every case someone enjoyed it there are like 300 cases where people were just pissed and set back.
I don't know why they keep it, it is an obvious net loss.
It's more about pointing out a huge problem we got, that there seems to be no sollution to. As I've said earlier, if I was a new player, and finally got to go to Outland just to be faced with this, it would put the whole game off for me. Most likely quit.
And that is the community that is killing pretty much every online game, they act like idiots just because there is no punishment for it.
They should just make it so you can't attack "grey" level players, and put max level+10 guards in every questing hub, making it hard to actually kill quest NPCs.

You just sound pathetic, and like one of those that actually would do this sort of things.
When I was a new player I did get ganked, many times. It added more threat to the world and made me appreciate how powerful high level characters were.
Being creative about avoiding the aggro is part of the fun. And no, it's clearly NOT a huge problem or it would've been fixed sometime in the past 9~ years since dishonorable kills were removed.
There's 0 evidence why this problem is 'huge' given by OP. It's widely accepted as largely happening only in 2 towns of 1 zone to any levels past one-off encounters, there are multiple workarounds in place for those who don't like it, it takes less than 10 hours to get a character to 60 again on a pve server if it truly bothers you, etc. etc. etc.
And what is the intended fix? High levels cant attack low levels? Absolutely retarded & makes no sense. Bans? Ridiculous, it's an expect part of player vs player.
Cant play the game because you're too shit. Spend "an hour" getting ganked like a tard. Jump onto a forum and have a big cry about it because the bullies won't let you play. Get laughed at by the community because you're bad at life and WoW. Get even angrier and threaten people because they make fun of you. Laughed at more. Make ridiculous suggestions about trying to "fix" ganking. Try to redeem yourself by trying to act tuff. Everyone laughs even more.
BRB. I just have to go to another site and post about how someone was mean to me.
You know, that since you are on a pvp server, you can pretty much be corpse camped from lvl 1 to lvl 100, without any GM doing anything? That is what you do on PVP servers. These people are not toxic players, these players just play the game, within the rules, which you have put yourself in. When you are lvl 100, you have the same right to go around and kill players of the other faction. For now, if you are going to quit over being killed on a PVP server, then you should have started on a non-PVP server instead.
I can proberly also expect, that since you started on a PVP-server, you wanted to gank low lvls as well, when you hit max. So you are only being treated, as you would proberly treat others.
May the lore be great and the stories interesting. A game without a story, is a game without a soul. Value the lore and it will reward you with fun!
Don't let yourself be satisfied with what you expect and what you seem as obvious. Ask for something good, surprising and better. Your own standards ends up being other peoples standard.
Dude, we have all done that before, ganking low lifes in low lvl zones. Often it is kind of fun to follow somebody around undtil they hearth or log out of the game But there is no reason to yell at these people, because they just do what they can, to have fun They are not breaking any rules, they are not doing anything evil. They are just putting up the extra danger, which there is in playing on PVP-servers, which was something you agreed to, when you choose a pvp server. Again, there would be no difference from Vannilla to today, since you would have just been ganked in lvl 34 instead of 58.

Guess I am a rare breed then, as I have never camped a low level, killed one while running past him? Sure, but never camped. It is unethical. I feel bad for your parents that failed so hard at raising a decent humanbeing.

Well, working from home so it isn't as imporant to have a decent sleep pattern. As long as I get the work done, my bosses are happy. Insomia ftw.
Considering this happens maybe once a month at most on pve servers...yeah, being on a pve server would help.
@Feederino Senpai: Worst case, dungeon grind through those levels.
Wanting people to be decent in a video game. Hah. How many people in your years (you say you've played since original wow) have you seen ninja things and be general dick heads? And you're still surprised people act like shit bags on the internet, okay, guy.
I haven't camped a low level before either, but have been on the receiving end. I didn't cry to mmo-champion about it, I just swapped characters/took a shit/got some food and came back 15 minutes later and moved on, >like a decent human being<. Besides, you're in Hellfire. Are you at/above 60? Go to Zangarmarsh. Below 60? Winterspring, Un'goro (sort of), and Silithus are options. Hellfire is notoriously bad for ganking and has been since BC. It only got worse with cross realm zones too.
Use your /1 in the area and call for help.
Honestly, the worst place Ive been camped is hellfire on my horde toons, none stop alliance thinking its hilarious to gank day and night. I just went /1 Guys, a few of us are getting creamed trying to level by 100's, any help?
Immidatly got about 4 wisps asking where I was, and about 3 asking where I was in /1. And more turned up without saying anything, needless to say I got about 60 mins of peace, more than enough time to outlevel the place
New players to this game are warned over and over if they play on a PVP realm what can and will happen though the course of leveling up...this players, the OP is not a damn new player....they know the risks of playing and trying to level on a pvp realm anymore all due too CRZ and LFG pulling in buttheads from all over. Either the OP accepts this fact of their realm or they use LFG and get on a PVE realm to level up...yes sometimes on PVE realms quest hubs are attacked by the other side but its not the Hell that happens on PVP realms where player is outright killed and camped over and over. PVP happens on PVP realms, end of argument. Yes I play on a PVE realm and have since 2008...all due to fact I didn't want to deal with the homo leveled idiot teenage boys whom thought they were all that and a bag of chips...but since then I have learn to PVP quite well...and when I am in the mood I will pop over too a PVP realm and make it pure hell for PVP'ers, just for chits and grins. I call it pay back.
