(Per Howland: Try to avoid engaging in PvP when you have a substantial level advantage over the other character. Although there are exceptions to every rule, you should always put the story and fun for all involved over your own personal success. This is particularly important when dealing with very low level opponents. If you're looking for random victims for mugging or religious sacrifice, it is encouraged to target high-profile characters instead of new characters/players.)
No particular instance prompted this, just came across it, and as I have not even thought of level diffrence's when considering pvp in some time, I thought I would shove it to the top of the stack....

I would also like to mention that in even in lower and with monstrous races running around (kobolds, goblins, etc) you still need a DM present when NPC's are around.
I was involved with an incident where someone initiated pvp with me and another. I don't recall a DM being present, usually noticeable when an NPC emotes something.
Please, please, please, wait for DM confirmation before you go whacking at other players.

If you don't get a DM and you PvP someone in an area full of NPC's, you will be banned.

Sometimes DMs don't emote the NPCs, I got DM approval without any NPC moving about me attacking a kobold.

That -was- an NPC, lols.
Uh, no. It was another player as he was talking and all kinds of stuff with us. Then logged when I said that he needed a DM present, logging in with a different character about 5 minutes later.
