Your personal rules of random PVP?

[Lissa]

Today I landed in Dustwallow and mounted up to head towards Onyxia, that sly beast with the newly uncontrollable aggro.

As I was riding I came upon a level 31 Human Warlock named Sassafras.  I dismounted and walked behind her for a while and she didn't  notice me.  I wasn't trying to sneak up on her or anything.

Then my instincts kicked in.  I smelt burned flesh and tasted blood in my mouth in anticipation.  Fireblast.  Frost nova.  Cone of cold.  All critical hits. 

I took off my robe and pants and cannibalized her.
Then I was ashamed, because I had broken my rules of pvp.  #1) Red = Dead.  #2) Unless they have a clever emote/name/guild tag that makes me laugh

She was in the guild <Respek Knuckles> and I laughed.&nbsp; I /apologize and rode on to two hours of wiping on Onyxia.&nbsp; Karma?

Generally, I'm in the same boat as Tal. I fight when it's a choice by both sides and I do defend the weak. Case in point, some weeks back Horde were assaulting Darkshire. As I arrived in Darkshire, the Horde were returning to SoS. I had decided that I would go out and farm the Warlocks in Deadwind for the +Str bracer enchant. On my way, I had a couple of Horde in front of me, about 10 levels below me. All of the sudden a lv 20 NE Warrior was running back to Darkshire with his flag up from chasing Horde further ahead. The lv 50 Shaman decided to hit said lv 20 with a Frost Shock and then hit him with something else and he died. At that point, I attacked the Shaman and decimated him for his cowardly act of attacking someone 30 levels below him. If the Shaman had minded his own business and kept retreating instead of attacking the Warrior, I would have not bothered, but the Shaman decided that someone 30 levels lower was good sport. Said Shaman learned what it's like then an there what it feels like to be ganked by someone higher level (atleast the Shaman was still green to me, unlike the Warrior which was grey to the Shaman). The Shaman had an Undead Mage with him that tried to fight me, but when I laid the DoTs on him for attacking me first, he promptly decided that sheeping and running was the better course of action, and with that I let him run (my DoTs didn't kill him).

To me, it's more about fair play than anything else (and yes, I know there's nothing fair in war, but, this is not war, this is a game for enjoyment).
