If you're like me and don't like having to rely on other people to get your quests done then I would suggest leaving the pvp server and save yourself many hours of frustration. If you like grouping for all types of quests (not just instances), and are already in a guild, stay. Like some of the other posters said, it can be fun throwing in some pvp while grouping. I'm more of the soloer type so with my orc hunter at 25 I left a pvp server because I was spending more time dead than alive. It just wasn't fun anymore. I would rather quest when I want to, and pvp when I want....rather than someone else deciding when I pvp. Just my 1.5 cents
