I don't know how it started or even why but it's almost pointless to go quest there. Horde ganking Alliance , Alliance ganking horde. It's a war zone of 60's killing 30's and don't really get it. I was on an alt (37 Shammy) and was going to run to Stonard for flight path with another guildmate (37 Druid). We were there like 3 min into the run and, charge, HS (60 warrior).. OMG you have got to be kidding me... dead . run back rez run about 10 more feet... ambush ?? (60 Rogue). OMFG lol R U freaking kidding me . We run back rez 30 sec later charge, HS, MS dead.. OK now I am pissed at this point. So I log in my very well geared 60 UD warrior and druid logs in better geared 60 Lock and we take the zep down and find the two retards. We killed the warrior and then later found and killed the Rogue. Now we have like 15 level 30 alliance on us and they also had to die. But yet we still were not satisfied so we decided to make the short ride to the closest Alliance town and manage to pick up a 60 hunter and Rogue who had the same two A holes do the same to there alts . Long story short we killed every thing from STV to Darkshire and did not give a crap if it was a level 30 or 60. Went in the town killed everyone with 4 gaurds beating on me. rezzed in the inn killed the 20 nubs hidding there. For like an hour noone got any quest done in darkshire. I love a pvp server and would not play if it was not. But STV is a f-ed up place and lotsa people had a bad night because of 2 retards. So if your on Bloodscalp and you were in Darkshire and were a killed buy 4 ?? that's why. Sorry . I never quest there but I have to run through it to get to Swamp and ended up getting camped anyway...lol Karma
STV... Hillsbrad Foothills... Thats where I have had problems so far. But I have learnt to cope with them quite effictively and have found a tactic that works really really well with these areas.
1. They are no go areas in peak hours. Only play off peak. (0000-0600)
2. If you can't play off peak hours... well... I don't know what you gonna do :P But it's worked a charm for me.
STV is just wrong. Very wrong. But where there's a will there's a way.

P.S. I felt alot better afterwards =>
I find this strangely ironic. How you felt when you got ganked is likely exactly how everyone you ganked felt afterwards too.
PvP is a vicious circle. Ive noticed myself falling into the same. Ive tried being nice, bowing waving to show my intent was not ill, but more often than not random_alliance_noob01 will run away, only to find a higher level friend to help gank me ... but not until Im fighting 1-3 mobs of course.
As such, Ive grown very bitter, and at times find myself doing the same thing I was upset over, thus making those people upset and....well, you get the picture.
Some zones seem much better after about 9pm PST time. I guess thats when all the teenie boppers go to bed.

What I'm hearing is...."dang...on a pvp server, there REALLY IS a place where pvp takes place outside BG..."
Sounds perfectly fine to me.
I was on my 43 priest when two 45 alli came upon me in badlands...killed me...I rezzed and they did it again, just as another 43 came in the area...they killed him...
I told him to wait a sec, that I'd be right back...came back with my 60 mage (ewho is hearthed in kargath)...killed both alli twice...they rezzed a third time and started running...killed em again...
aha, I only got metatrons post on top at first. Seeing Diesls post now as well and it makes a lot more sense. (Cant edit my post again for some reason)

My priest hasn't been bothered there since...heh
Actually the point he's making is about the griefer gank squads that are out there. Reread the first line in the post about 60's killing 30's. I've long accepted the random encounter gank or be ganked nature of the PvP servers but I still don't see any purpose to going out of your way to grief someone. A 60 who has to dismount to kill a 35 is griefing. Those two alli's camping you is griefing. Why not spend that time in the BG's instead?
Her's an obvoius bit of advice, that seems worht mentioning, because, speaking for myself, I often overlook the obvious...
I f you are levleing an alt in SoS or Darkshire or whatever, and are particularly concerned about being ganked, consider logging off your main toon at the nearest Inn (nearest to wear your alt is grinding)...
That way, if you get ganked, you won;t find your self in the predicament of traveling from Feralas to catch up to your alt and beat of the gankers.
If your main is Level 60, you don;t need rest bonus... If your alt is in a very remote area, just log off your main toon in the immediate area you are questing/grinding your Alt.
Now you can get your main to the gankers in maybe 30 to 40 seconds after they drop your alt, perhaps less.

So obvious that it's Pure Genius! I seriously never thought of that, lol. Great idea, TY!
lol, I once flew to Freewind Post in Thousand Needles, only to find that as soon as I got there, there were 4-5 45+ alliance actually IN the post killing everything. It was kind of funny. (Except that I died.)
I pst'ed a friend in ogri to tell a bunch of 60's that there was a raid going on IN freewind post (there was noone over lvl 35 there) and about 15 minutes later, 10-15 horde flew up (all lvl 60) and killed them over and over.
Point is, it seems that on my server, high lvl horde help the low levels as much as they can. It's kind of nice. As soon as someone gets ganked, then "/3 lvl ?? ganking at <location>" and you'll see replies of "omw" and "get that ally bastard".
