Meh, I'm just bad at MMOs and making friends these days. The common theme to your stories are all [doing x with friends] and none of my friends play AA and I don't feel like making new ones. I can solo WoW to a certain degree and plan to do just that come WoD release, but when I want to 'pwn some newbs' I log into LoL and that makes me feel better than killing someone in an MMO that didn't even want to fight.
I understand that the carebears getting ganked are losing SOME degree of time/effort -- but maybe what frustrates me is that theattacker risks nothing. Eve PVP made me genuinely tense -- especially when I was obvious the target of the enemy group and needed to maneuver to stay alive. I wasn't even risking all THAT much, but the very visceral feeling of "I'm going to lose my ship if I don't do something" just isn't there for me in Archeage and, in retrospect, it is mandatory for me to enjoy MMO PVP.
