'Nice' PvP Realm?

I have my fingers crossed, hoping this question isn't in vain.
Are there any NICE PvP realms? And by 'nice' I don't mean friendliness. I don't mean lack of rudeness.
My only real concern is lvling up in a brand new PvP realm for the first time, and I would rather go somewhere that won't have me dead and camped 80% of the time while I'm in the Barrens.
A place where you aren't constantly, consistently slaughtered by lvl 80s with most steps you take.
A realm where there is at least a slight sense of honor, where five against one isn't 'good for me, bad for you'.
If there truly are no PvP realms that have any kind of honor whatsoever..
then I'd at least like to be reccomended a few where Horde is higher pop than alliance.. but NOT to the point that it feels like a PvE realm cause Alliance is too busy getting killed. Slightly horde-'favored'.
Thanks.

sorry, thats a pvp realm for you
If you've no idea or suggestion for the first major question, my alternative question must certainly have some good options.

I'm on Executus, and through leveling a few characters I've only really been camped a couple times. It's by no means a large realm though, so that could be part of it.
Hmm, ok. I'll check that out.
If you don't want to be ganked then why don't you go on a pve realm... btw. don't go to kil jaeden. Theres a couple rival guilds here who have guild wars every night at TM and other places (I'm in one) fun times, but any lowbies questing get caught in the middle
Obviously it's futile to hope I'd NEVER be ganked.. I just want to avoid high-pop-alliance PvP so that it's not what I mostly do.
Also, thanks for the tip on Kil'jaden.. I was actually considering that place... o_o

No one ever goes to Azeroth anymore (will change during Cataclysm, I guarantee it). For now, you're relatively safe to level on any pvp server. Any bored @#$% 80's that feel like camping will leave you alone if you just wait 5 minutes before spawning.

This ^ if they are in azeroth it's in a capital city or they're leveling a profession/alt

You could role a rogue or druid so you could stealth away from the enemy if spotted.
Also, you could role a toon on a PVE server and for every 5 levels put $2 in jar. When you get to 80 you can use this money to pay for the transfer to a pvp realm.
But as the others say, it's generally pretty quiet in Azeroth these days.
Good luck

I disagree, I camped Darkshire for 12 hours straight yesterday. Killing over 50 minor alliance characters, and 6 80s. I never let up

On frostmane it seems that only Horde gets killed in world pvp pre-outland, but all my friends and I have just come to the conclusion that "Tauren Mill is under attack!" is a right of passage. We just laugh about it now. A couple of minor frustrations aren't enough to make me roll on a pve server, and I think thats where the preference comes into play. Theres a little more uncertainty on pvp servers, and although true world pvp (where you are attacked when not fighting a mob) doesn't happen very often, when it does you feel a sense of accomplishment.

best suggestion would be either: level to 80 now, which would probably be better, ooooorrr lvl to 85 in cata because flying mounts were the death of world pvp and most players aren't going to fly down just to gank some lowbie.
Besides, it's not like this game is harsh about deaths, especially in pvp. O wow a gy run a couple times. Other games I've played you were flagged 100% of the time, could be attacked except in select safe zones and if you were killed with anything in your inventory it could be looted by the victor and you lost experience (though not as much as a pve death).

Total lie.
Flying mounts made world PvP worse. Now, instead of getting corpse camped by someone who you can switch to your main and WTFPOWN him, he hovers over your corpse, waits for you to spawn, then flies back down and does it again. If there's a level 80 in the area, he'll just stay aloft, or move on to another target.
"Death of world pvp...." No, it's an open invite to noobs who can't actually kill a level 80, so they camp hellfire and 1 shot people, then hover just because they can.
