Now all of this motivates me to sneak into the wilds and wait for someone to be killed and steal the loot lol.
Without being seen by anyone, of course 
No one would ever know lol

I feel like itās a jerk move, yes.
Particularly if someone is in the middle of combat with a mob and another someone comes in and attacks that person.
Thatās ganking.
However, The Wilds are always-on PVP zones, so while I may feel it to be a jerk move, it IS ālegalā and not cheating.
not sure how that works, but I donāt think you drop your bags if your not in the wilds.
The only consensus is there is no consensus. I donāt even know if you could find full agreement in any given fellowship.
If weāre giving opinions, my personal sentiment is that if you want to harm me and mine, I am going to seek any and all retribution possible. I donāt care if you think itās all in good fun, or that just because the game allows it there should be no hard feelings.
The game allows people to be obnoxious braying jackasses in any number of other ālegalā ways too, and thus I can personally regard you as a jerk, opt out of having anything to do with you, and kill you without mercy, as the game allows all of that as well.

Iām fine with open PVP in the Wilds. Rules are rules, and there arenāt very many of those in the wilds zones. However, you donāt have license to grief or be an ass. Kill me if you must, take my droppable stuff, and move on.
Know that fellowships and friendships are real in this game, though, and understand that actions have consequences. You may just find yourself with a very lucrative bounty to a large group of people who will ensure that the remainder of your Orbus career will be unpleasant.

see thats the attitude that makes fighting back not worth itā¦ they want you to fight back they want to get a rise out of you ignore them and move on better advice couldnt be givenā¦ oh and carry nothing at all so you waste their time.

You thinking that someone is a prick does not make that person a prick. This is part of what annoys me. There are so many people in this game who try to impose their way of playing on other people, then judge other people for not playing how they want to play. Welcome to life. People have different perspectives and your perspective is not the only oneā¦
This whole thread is people saying āI donāt like PvP so anyone who PvPās is a jerk!ā I think you are all jerks for not PvPāing! I bought this game strictly for Wilds PvP and you guys are not going out there enough to PvP! You are jerks! Please play like me!! 
i dont think thats what he said thoughā¦ he sounded like he meant the people who pvp that want to rub it in afterā¦ those areā¦ jerksā¦ just pvping someone is a function of the game but you dont have to then act better than others because of it. if i understood his meaning anyhow.

Iām surprised no one as tried ārole-playingā a bandit yet. That is going up to a fisherman, demand two runemage reagents and a rare fish in trade and offer to protect them for five minutes in exchange. And actually follow through on protecting them or killing them if you canāt come to an agreement. Seems like it would be a good way to PvP while annoying people less. Iād be absolutely thrilled to have that kind of interaction in a video game.
Iām not interested in ganking players but Iām glad PvP areas exist although I havenāt really had a chance to explore them yet. These kind of zones can make for really exciting and interesting gameplay.

We consider a discussion like this to be perfectly valid about one of the major aspects of the game but Iād like to remind everyone to stay respectful and avoid using demeaning language or personal attacks towards people for either liking PVP or not liking PVP. Itās neither productive or respectful and doesnāt reflect positively on people using it to get their point across.

Yeah, you jerks! /s
For real though, I donāt think anyoneās unreasonable for feeling negatively towards PVP. Itās not going to deter me from PVPing freely, but still.

Nope, there is nothing in the original post that talks about that. He is just asking if going into the wilds and killing someone for their loot is a jerk thing to do. To be clear here, he is passively aggressively calling people who do that jerksā¦

Look, it seems like the ultimate question is this: what do we do about dishonorable players? Thatās an important question to a lot of people who feel reasonable animosity towards aggressors. Thereās not a lot of recourse in most cases, especially if the person got away clean with the goods, but I think thatās something that will improve over time, much like a lot of this game. I do hope it gets addressed in Content Patch 3 to peopleās general satisfaction.

I feel there is room for all types of players if each kind of activity gives different but equally important rewards.
- Arena / Battlegrounds for the āgood sportsmanā PvP type.
- High-level dungeons for PvE grinders.
- The wilds for those who just want open unrestricted warfare.
Itās just a matter of adding the content and figuring out what kind of rewards make sense and how to balance it all so everyone can participate in the game economy.
I donāt like the idea of different servers for each set of rules, especially with such a small community as Orbus.

Iām sorry to say that but, fun fact, the pvp guild leader - if iām not mistaken you run the UoH - single handed confirmed many of the prejudice uttered with only couple posts, just a feedback no offense, this is not actually so helpful. And if people seriously think cool exciting pvp must include griefing players thatās even more a reason to separate those into that from those who are not.
Now who is actually āimposingā anything on you, in fact it is the other way round. All players are currently strongly encouraged, by having lots of exclusive pve content out there, to play the prey for aggressive dudes and that is exactly what I dislike, the lack of choice.
Not that games offer pvp content at all, that is a normal thing and NO worries if youād read the whole thread there are more than enough left who are into that and even go further than the OP and fight with you over fish and what all :D.
There do seem to be a number of people whoās idea of fair challenging pvp is not the open world-savage-style, though, and for those there would actually be a need for more pvp content, more diversity, namely arenas where playerās level and numbers match, instead of only the wilds.
As for the game you bought, oh I bought the very same game and did not even know thereās a pvp part, go figure. Thereās nothing in the oculus description about it. And if there is, just like in any other MMORPG I played, I do expect people got a real choice to opt out of that, that is all.
And btw, here is the game description, most who buy the game will not google up tons of info or even know what the āwildsā are, they do expect, first and foremost, what is announced in the description. Pvp is a nice-to have addon, why not, but nothing indicates it is a vital part of the game, in any way:
āOrbusVR is the first fully-realized MMORPG designed from the ground up for room-scale virtual reality.
It features everything you love about an MMO: a huge open world, dozens of hours of quests following an intriguing story, interesting lore and characters, dragon pets, five-player group dungeons, world bosses, voice chat, player trading, fishing and crafting, and more!
Plus youāll be part of a world brimming with thousands of other players.ā
