You just have no arguments, seriously.

By exciting and competitive I don't mean constant PVP madness. I mean that when it happens it will be more intense and all 1 vs 1 kills will have meaning versus the majority of 1 vs 1 kills being some guy +8 levels throwing a mage pet and laughing to the bank.

It shouldn't take more than a third-grader's logic to realize that the +8lvl naked mage phenomenon will be vastly more common on a server where said scenario is likely to lead to said easymode mage also winning an item from the guy they effortlessly killed.

The only exception is Gloinz when he dominated that Gnome in crushbone, that was cool.

He ganked someone who had mobs on him. Don't know what's so cool about that, and more importantly, with itemloot this would become the kind of thing everyone specifically attempts to do, instead of first seeking the kind of PvP that's actually fun and takes some effort. Anyone can kill some guy who's got mobs on him.

If you are too afraid of item loot

That sentence alone proves that you have no real arguments. You really have to resort to that kind of flawed discussion technique?

than perhaps 1 random item from equipped items barring held things + range. This with a tighter pvp range means people have to pvp carefully.
|
Randomizing the item doesn't really change anything. In fact it probably leads to more repeat killings where someone just ganks the same guy over and over for hours until he logs off or the ganker finally gets to loot the item he wanted. The victim can choose to not play the game or not wear equipment.

When I'm grinding on beta I just cruise around and every once in a while some guy way higher level than me might kill me. I destroy my money and then jog out and get my corpse and keep grinding. Really cool.

It's the beta. There's usually less than a hundred players on and nobody is taking it seriously.

With 4 level range I know that everyone I can fight I can beat. Even if my opponent is a mage and I'm a warrior I just need 1 rooting class to root his pet and then we can easily take him out.

How is this relevant to itemloot?

As it is, you're better off going about your business until you reach your desired level and then go hunting.

If you can't enjoy PvP for the sake of PvP and must have the option of removing from your victim one of the two only measures of character progression (the other being levels) then you're probably not the kind of player the developers try to cater to. It also suggests that you've never been part of a healthy, populated PvP server where the act of PvP and the rights to the content you win is more than enough reward. If PvP itself is not enough, you just don't have a place in the design of a PvP server.
