Warmode is the best we’re going to get as far as a compromise. PvP servers were dying out, mandatory PvP would kill the game faster than no-flying did, and so far the Enlisted + AOO bonuses are actually working and getting the underrepresented faction to flag.
You lot who like PvP should be cheering for Warmode, because if it fails, chances are Blizz will just decide WPvP isn’t worth the hassle and disable it entirely. (That or dissolve factions, so that Horde can PvP with each other to their heart’s content.)
