See, this is what every Red player's first experience should be like (except maybe the twink part; can't expect twinks to just constantly hang out in newbie areas). The unfortunate part is that currently some players get a starting experience like that, and some get ganked a couple times and quit.
Now, imagine that PvPing was disabled in starting areas, and every player got to have a starting experience like Hippo's. Imagine how many more people would make it past their first few levels on the server.

Twinks don't hang out in starting areas. Twink PKs with epics/fungi hang out in mistmoore, unrest, guk and CoM. If you want to avoid those places you will be fine. I bet exp is halted more on blue because of twinks/PL problems in those areas.
If you see a twink in a starting area on red they are probably leveling up themselves and with the group exp bonus you might even get to join them. As I said in my example me and another in our group were established and were grouped with 4 others starting out. We had 2 fungis in our group.
The PK in FoB wasn't hugely twinked but still creamed the necro in cloth in a couple hits (I think the necro was level 4 at the time). The PK probably had on like 5-10k worth of gear. I think he was just someone else wanting to level up that decided to do some PvP before he logged.
