  WoW -> PvP   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Another benefit of team-based PvP is that it splits the sides evenly and makes our communities smaller, which in turn makes it a lot easier for players to develop friendships with their groups, create guilds, and to get to know everyone in the community.
However, should enough PvP combat occur in Battlegrounds or if the number of Dishonorable Kills escalates to such a degree that it hampers general gameplay, we may well step in and institute a penalty for Dishonorable Kills.
All players who participate in PvP will be able to track their rankings and successes not only through their weekly tallies in-game, but also through our World of Warcraft rankings website, which will be updated weekly with all the ranks and accomplishments on each server.

 Player vs Player - WoWWiki
In Open Combat (only seen on PvP servers, in the Arena, and any time your PvP flag is on) players 40 levels higher than you can choose to fight you if they so desire and you cannot decline.
PvP also refers to PvP Realms, which are Realms where Open Combat happens much more often since around level 20 players will be pushed into adventuring in contested territories.
Many players who only play on PvE realms will talk about how they do so because they think PvP servers are nothing but non-stop ganking, where it's impossible to do anything but die over and over as you're swarmed by level 60s of the other faction.

PVP can be an advantage in LARP, especially large-scale LARP (hundreds of players or more) since it reduces the need for monster crew and plotwriting, can enhance the sense of fair play, and can produce a wider variety of opponents than a small plotwriting team could easily create.

ie: one part of an area where PvP is allowed and in another part of the same area where PvP is not allowed?'i was considering posting this in the toolset forum but decided on scripting because i was thinking maybe i could make a trigger to change PvP settings onentered or something along those lines.
Thats because there are no pvp settings functions, you cant switch pvp settings on or off via scripting, there are probably crazy ways around it but none that I can think would be worth bothering with
Yes, it is possible to be able to cast spells at a player in a no pvp area as you already must know, but theres no way to allow a player to physically attack another player in a no pvp area.
