If you leveled in STV during the first six weeks of Classic you'd know what the true world PvP is all about, also known as STVietnam. Gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. It's sad that we can't have that kind of pvp chaos in retail. If they add a non-flying warmode I'd also like them to increase the player density per shard so we can get that STV experience in retail. Also stop letting players turn off warmode in any rest area as soon as the tide turns against them, just in capital cities.

Another falsehood. The gold cost for epic flying in BC was so high that many players didn't even get it until near the end of the expansion, on just one character. If you want to replace pathfinder with gold purchase it's gonna cost at least 2 million per character.
Blizzard can't win because there are people that both agree and disagree with you. Yes, flying reduces world pvp. Is that bad? Not at all in my opinion. I both enjoy flying and hate wPvP.
It's really not fun constantly getting ganked when trying to level. If I feel like doing PvP, I'll join a bg or arena.
Like others have said, if you hate flying and love wpvp so much: play classic.
Apparently you still dont get it, there is nothing stopping you from mounting up and flying up there and knocking them off. Be the wolf you think you are.

I come from a time and a place where I judge people by the content of their character; I don't give a damn if you are tall or short; gay or straight; Jew or Gentile; White, Black, Brown or Green; Conservative or Liberal. -- Note to mods: if you are going to infract me have the decency to post the reason, and expect to hold everyone else to the same standard.
So you'd rather force people to play with you, instead of actually going where you have all you want... Is that your testimony? You are whining about 'forced' yet you have ZERO problem trying to force everyone to play with you? Why is it you are single handedly trying to kill WPvp on retail?

No, I don’t confuse anything with anything, shards are automatics, and not about that at all, although from the point of view of origin (ideologically not technically) these methods as a whole are kind of from same area, so... I have no idea where you got this.
You aren't person with whom it's interesting to talk, you don't make any arguments or even logical points (I have nothing to cling to, except that you continue to not understand "difference (barrier was necessary due to various conditions for gameplay formation)" (but I have nothing more to add on this issue, especially to you). I have no any base, so reason, to even argue with you (semantically, I would call it rather "flood").
You're wrong, that's all.
ps. so answer will be same as yours here *shrugs* call me when you come up with something more interesting

Oh yes you do, because warmode is nothing else than switching between PvP and PvE server with better WQ rewards. Also enabling you pvp talents in pve.
Purpose was just that, to remove artificial barrier and help people who were stuck on specific type of server because most of their friends were playing on type of server that did not align with their interests.
Because in long run, it doesn't make sense to segregate people by server.
I'm looking at this from a little bit different angle. IMO Warmode was designed for people who enjoy wPvP in one way or another. But the same people might also want to be competitive in PvE, so Blizzard tried to solve this the best possible way - provide a compensation for time lost compared to PvE. And I don't mind that initial 10% - since both PvP and PvE crowd ended up with pretty much the same results:time spent ratio.
Having everything else added on top of that just proves that WM is not viable
I said this in a earlier response to this thread... but when I turned on warmode, it was on my rogue to pick on low level players. That was it. Soon as I got any opposition, I turned it off and stealthed/flied away.
People complaining about how flying ruined world PvP simply means they can't gank people anymore.
i'm pretty sure that at least 1502 thread talked about how wpvp is dead since vanilla and introduction to bgs
i never played pre-bg era, but 'wpvp is dead' is something i hear about since vanilla, literally, and each has his/her own view about how to fix it
And I still hate current warmode, i prefer the older pvp vs pve servers, and i was on pvp server too

if only the best 3 exps in entire game didn't have flying from start unlocked, i wonder what does that mean (tbc/wrath/mop)

they should remove any reward for turn pvp
yeah the number of ppl who turn pvp on will drop, but that's the point, u should pvp for loving pvp, not for getting more gold and exp and rep
and i'll admit i may turn it off on some alts, but overall since i love pvp i know i won't turn it off, even while lvling
hence why i prefer the older pvp vs pve servers

how about ion hazzikostas ruined flying
Just shut up and buy the net gun. Then have super fun shooting people down.
but he is right, flying make u finish content faster
hence why in older times they actually made more content instead of the smack-a-mole system we have now, wrath content is very diverse and unique, same for tbc ( I know a lot of experimentation in early days) and so in mop
because the game was designed from start with flying
now it is far cheaper to not allow flying and make smaller content, heck i remember in wod blizz said that they did NOT finish all game 3d models to be viewable from air hence why there was no fly from start (yes they said that, and the reaction was as u guess), they retracted it later, but it does give sense why flying was out only in last patch, let's make an unfinished product and ship it out and we can finish it later after idiots (well Bobby never said we are idiots, but he strongly hinted about it, that we gamers will pay anything for a game) already payed and fell in their trap

-.- flying was available from day one, u only need to get gold + lvl for that said exp
if u get to lvl 70 in day 1 and happen to also have gold, u'll fly in day one
that what i meant that available from day 1, that it is up to u - player - to unlock it according to ur own progress speed, not timegated behind patched by blizzard
and the more important point here the 3 best exps all had flying part of them, instead of the sh8t we have now
