[WoW] Ganking in Vashj'ir

Last night was my first real experience with Ganking/Griefing. I was trying to do the quests inside Nespirah, the ones that involve you going to his "brain" chamber. 3-4 Alliance toons decided that it'd be a hoot to sit there and gank any horde trying to talk to the quest giver. 3 Alliance toons is enough to cause even a decent PVPer some issues, especially when one is a healer.

I had to wait until there was a sufficient amount of hordies being killed that we could run in together and kill the gankers. This didn't take long at all, but as soon as we did that, grabbed our quests, everyone dispursed. 10 minutes later, when I'm trying to turn in said quests, the gankers were back. This got annoying quickly, since we had to go back to that NPC multiple times. Eventually 1-2 people stayed at the NPC in order to keep the ganking down. Funny enough, the horde "keeping the peace" let Alliance members get the quests as well. They only attacked when attacked.

That really shattered my long and totally illogical image of the horde as the "Mean" faction.

True Story.
