I agree with nealio. There seems to be a misconception on classic servers that the main purpose of playing on one is to gank and camp people or whole areas.
Probably because people praised wpvp as something that doesn't exist anymore on retail, saw some youtube videos of people shitting on healers in blackrock and think this is the way you have to play. The result are people running braindead into me, even when they are much lower level without a chance. Several people running after me in tanaris from the middle of the map to the sea for minutes.
What vanilla is actually praised for is the community, playing on a server together without cross-servers, but with a majority of people making people hate and leave the server because of the way they behave, it's just sad and boring.
