100% PVE missing out?

I'm just wandering if a player that is 100% PVE is missing out on anything gear or experience wise or is there equivalent stuff that can be picked up in raids and quests? I HATE PVP and would rather shove bamboo shoots under my fingernails than play it but sometimes I think that I am missing out on a lot of cool stuff that is better than what is available in the PVE world.
Also I am returning after a year off playing and am also wondering if PVE and PVP are getting equal attention from Blizzard. I have not been back long enough to really tell, besides I pretty much ignore all that is PVP.

Sounds good. I did a little back in the vanilla days and even a tiny bit when BC came out. It just isn't for me. Partly because I am not good at it and partly just because I guess...lol...glad to hear I am not missing anything. I always thought that PVP gear was for PVP and PVE was for PVE and that one didn't do well used in the other but I never looked into it enough to really confirm that or learn enough to know. So now I can stick to doing what I like best and leave PVP for the rest.

PvP isn't for everyone
I don't think you are missing out on any gear.
But I fully believe that a little PvP will make you anyone better PvE player.
QFT. PvP really tests your reactions and reflexes since every single time you fight it is different. PvE only tests your ability to learn the same fight over and over.
But... Faction Champions!

only thing you'll miss out is the trinket from WG, the one with dps stats and a remove bad stuff on use if you aren't human. you won't use it often but it's valueble on some pve fights. ofc you can do without, but it's easy enough to get.

If you don't like PVP, why would you torture yourself, just to further realize how much you absolutely positively canNOT stand it?
The items you get from PVP are most useful for doing more PVP.
I might occasionally do a battleground, or fight a stupid DK who decided to get froggy on me while I'm mining (yes, mining) my own business in Wintergrasp, but in general I avoid PVP.
Sometimes I feel forced into it, like when there's no other way to get a holiday title, and that's frustrating both for me and for those who like PVP and are good at it. It doesn't seem to matter how many times you calmly explain "As soon as we complete the holiday achievement, we will gladly leave and be out of your way, however the more you prevent us from gaining the achievements, the more times we keep coming back."
BG chat fills up with "OMG!1! GTFO nubs! You are teh suxorz! I hate all these GDMFCAREBEARS!"
Yep, thanks guys. You're awesome.

Played since Beta and I haven't done PVP once. Not one single HK. PVP does
nothing
for me, and I've missed no content that's relevant to PVE by skipping it.
You can skip the entire side of WoW that has to do with PVP and you're not missing anything.
