World of Warcraft Battlegrounds, Chinese Launch 77
World of Warcraft continues its roll across the globe, with a successful Chinese launch of the MMORPG. More than 500,000 players participated in the beta test, and the launch statistics are expected to be impressive. Meanwhile, those of us who've been playing for a while have much to look forward to as the Battlegrounds of Alterac Valley and Warsong Gulch move into production. From the press release: "World of Warcraft's Battlegrounds are PvP-enabled zones where players compete against each other to achieve victory, Honor points, and valuable in-game rewards. Each Battleground has different goals and gameplay styles, providing an addictively engaging experience for participants. The two initial Battlegrounds now available to the public are Alterac Valley, a high-end zone designed for large groups of experienced players, and Warsong Gulch, a more casual zone designed for all players level 21 and up."

And your proposed system works how? SPecifically so that there is no easy ways to abuse such a system. For example, low level players just standing/running arround together with high level ones (not initiating or even making any attacks to prevent systems were such a thing removes the dishonorable part). Should area effect spells not be usable there? Should you have to carefully look so your cursor is not on that level 20 player who just jumped out amogn the level 50 you was fighting? Should using low level chars as shields be the way to do it then?
