A couple of things are obvious if you think about them even a little bit:
1) PVP servers tend to accumulate a group of people that are less senstive to their own pain and far less sensitive to the pain and discomfort of others than the people on PVE servers.
2) PVP servers actually attract people that LIKE causing other people discomfort and pain.
These two facts contribute to a more callous, brutish experience. I'm not saying that every PVP player is a callous, aberant sadist. Assuredly most of them are not. But it doesn't take a high percentage of people like that to totally discolor the experience.
In any event, PVP EQ is simply not PVE EQ. Many of us PVE EQ players consider EQ to be the pinnacle of MMOs and would not want to play anything less.
