The only way a PvP server will ever be fair is if it is challenge-based - you can issue challenges to characters of equal or higher level, and the two of you can fight only if the challenge is accepted.
RvR servers, being team-based, require only that there be a special "arena" outside of the main gameworld where the fighting takes place, where organization can be made beforehand and a distance must be crossed to engage the enemy.
Of course, such controls would be an outrage to hardcore PvPers, because they enforce fairness and eliminate their primary source of fun - griefing.
If the controls are in place, I'll be there. If not (likely), I too am glad that those people will have someplace to go and ... express their fine selves.
:P
