Be under no illusions, you will not be escaping PvP by going to Blue. You will simply be trading one form of PvP for another. Instead of PvP through direct combat, you will experience PvP through rule lawyering, petitioning, training, camp stealing, FTE sniping, epic MQ farming, and the collective monopolization of every decent cash camp 24/7 by one unemployed neckbeard or another. In anything worth doing on Blue, your primary obstacle will not be overcoming the game world and its monsters, but beating out the other players who are trying to do the same thing.
This simple fact is the reason that Red's population has been growing steadily, despite its very obvious shortcomings: it's not perfect, but at this point it's preferable to the alternative.
