A few things to avoid PK:
go softcore
play single player games (online or offline)
set the max number of players for just your party
or
put a password on your games
hot key your town portal and wait them out in town
But this whole discussion is not about that. It is about a few people causing you to do things you wouldn't otherwise do (like always looking over your shoulder, playing alone, or starting a new character after you are killed)
A system I have seen work is used in other online games. Some realms allow pk and others do not. Within some realms only certain areas can pk.
By the way, I am in favor of the timer option.
