So last night I'm on a server on which I rarely play. I have a "mid-40s" warrior there and lately I've been getting on him one evening a week to level him. My plan is to move him to my primary server so that if mages keep getting the short end of the stick in WotLK I can (perhaps) use him as a tank in Wraith. This server has been up since the release of classic. Other than power leveling alts there are almost no true lowbies on it. The hinterlands, where I was leveling, was pretty much empty of players. While he was in a guild at one point (he's been around since 2005) it disbanded long ago. I was riding over to turn in a quest and saw, quite a way off, a rogue of the opposite faction. Level 70 by the look of his gear. He steathed as he saw me. I approached the quest giver and as I turned it in, the rogue one shotted me and then killed the quest giver(s) and every other NPC in the place. Laughed and restealthed, clearly waiting for me to rez.
Hard to imagine that there was anything that he needed in the hinterlands. He wasn't escorting anyone. Nothing drops there that has much value to a 70. The most likely reason for his presence was to gank lowbies. Perhaps he was relaxing. As an unguilded, untwinked, lowbie it seems hard to imagine that he expected me to either bring out my main or call on my friends. In any event, I decided to do something else.
As for the comments from Valandilv . I can't decide if you are just an accomplished troll or someone so completely insular that you are unable to understand points raised in opposition to your view.

this is getting way out of proportion. in warcraft 3 do you not attack your enemy's base if he has only 5 grunts and you're a demon hunter with a full control?
this is a game about war, as a craft, you're playing on a PVP server, and your characters are just code and pixels. it doesn't hurt if it dies.
get over that and let the killing begin!
In Warcraft 3, your enemy is a computer program trying to present you with a challenge to destroy. Overkill is fun.
In World of Warcraft, your enemy is a human being trying to have fun. Sitting there watching your corpse be camped by some jerk isn't fun. Overkill there is you being a bully to ruin somebody else's fun. Go pick on somebody your own size, and then let them rez and come back to fight another day. The war is pathetic as an excuse because their death doesn't advance your side in the war, at all.

Listen, if you don't like ganking or corpse camping, transfer to PvE or shut up.
Oh, rest assured, "people" like you are why I don't play on PvP servers.
