PvE.
I was on a pvp server from '05 to recently, earlier this year when I switched over. The real fun of pvp servers is world pvp encounters, and that had had a severe dropoff in BC and flat out died in lich king. I've found the overall playerbase (of both factions, that horde/alliance is more mature thing is bull!@#$) to be far more mature on PvE servers, too.
It's sad because for every mature individual who likes to world pvp or even gank, theres a dozen 12 year olds stroking their epeens to the same thing. And those 12 year olds, when not lol gankin nubz, end up in your pugs and raids. Gag...no thank you.

RP.
I want the chance to roleplay my characters every once in a while, and it's easier to find like-minded people when on an RP realm. Furthermore, I find the people to be much more mature than on your typical PvE / PvP realm. More likely to find someone who actually knows how to use proper English, for example.
Also, I
really
don't like PvP.

PVE...never ever been a fan of PVP...arena's...WG...all suck in my opinion. I know lots of people like it....just never been my thing.
I would rather quest and farm my butt off. Working on my 2nd Loremaster achievement.
To each their own :)

PVP, find it unrealistic that you'd run across a member of an enemy army you are in a race war with and not kill them (not even be alowed to kill them)

PvE. I have no desire to engage the "enemy" and if this were a real world, we'd have at the very least called a truce by now. Amazingly, most people would give up "I hate race and want to kill them" after fighting demons and mutated water striders and hordes of undead side by side. Not to mention the only "world pvp" that goes on nowadays is between someone leveling and some assface 80 who can't handle raiding.
Not to mention that in my experience playing on both a pve and pvp servers, the pvp server people are $%^&s a lot more often. For every person who actually helps you out, there's 10 who just make fun of you for even trying to get help. Happens on pve servers too, but I'd say the ration there is around 1 to 8.

PVE. Less crap to deal with...and being a casual player, makes questing/playing easier.
Played PvP for one of my characters first 40 levels but got tired of the consant gankings by lvl 70s (80% of the ganks was by 70s...and if i do beat a same level'd toon, a 70 will usually be called to exact revenge). And i figure if i replay the toon, it'll only be worse now that instead of 70s, its 80s.
Never tried RP...dont think ill try it out too.

And those.
It is the only reason I am playing this damn drug. I don't like RPG's! A friend told me about it and told me about how the rogue operates. I was bored and downloaded the trial. I didn't even get out of Northshire Abbey without giving Blizzard my credit card for full access and the first time I was killed in Redridge, I was ready to eat my monitor.
For me, this is like Call of Duty but with daggers, wildlife, and people who can make a meteorologist crap his pants.
So, yeah, PvP

PvP. Because when I first joined, I had no idea how that stuff worked and my friends were on that server. But hey, I've gotten use to owning those rogues who still think prot warriors can die that are in full Tier 8. GG!

PvE.
I don't want to fight other players' little avatars. I want to kill really big monsters with lots of other people.

RP.
I like having a backstory for my characters, and have never felt the urge to bash my epeen against other people's epeens until the RNG decides who wins. I know alot of people like PvP, but it's just never been an interest for me.
