As I said I am just curious(since you put this on the LL forum I guess its my right to be curious).
Peronally I dont enjoy the way many of you play, I find it contrived and "carebearish". Im not one of KOS the world guys but I dont like restrictions. But thats just my preference.

On a PvP server I would fight them, sure. Same reasons Mongo stated. On a PvE server, if they were already in PvP mode I would most likely fight them (unless I was hopelessly outclassed by them you know they were +5 levels on me). On an RP server it would depend entirely on what my characters make-up was. This is part of the reason I have characters on different servers. Sure most of my time has been spent playing on a PvE server but since I didn't have anything but the final stress test and the open beta I want to see the content more safely first. I'm thinking that I will play more PvP server later (unless the battlegrounds satisfy all my PvP cravings). But there are days I just don't want to deal with it. I can have a lot of fun without battling against another human.
But again, on the PvP servers, yeah I would fight in a case like that, I would fight over resources nodes too, otherwise whats the point of being on a PvP server.
Now I still wish PvP was more robust. I wish they had more robust crafting to help make PvP more robust as well. It would be cool if you could raid a town and actually damage it. You know have an impact on the game. It would be cool if you could then use crafting to repair the town. I would be on PvP servers so much more if there was more point to it like that. A dynamic quest system so that quests could be generated to get all level ranges involved to repair the outpost or the town. But anyway I'm rambling way too off track.
But there are differences in the way you should think about PvP and PvE servers. Blizzard finally listened to the D2 people and gave you the toggle at the time you "create game". That is a good thing. You have a lot more choice in the game and when you play PvP you are stating from the start you are willing to fight the other faction at any time in a contested zone. If you are on PvE you are only willing to fight when you want to. This is a very good thing and it's the way D2 should have been :)
