Why the hell is there cross faction PvP??????
Not only that you ruin PvP by your idea of peace mod, but now you gonna ruin it like this as well?
Like cross realm is not already enough.
Nobody wants this, reason why most ppl play BGs are to fight faction against faction, cross faction already destroyed many servers!

Are you sure you are talking for everyone and not just yourself?

Nowadays BG is just about Team-A vs Team-B.

Plus, are you aware that a lot of players have characters on both side (alliance and horde)?
that said, the "cross-faction bg" has been introduced to reduce the queue time.
Alliance had aroudn 5-8 min avarage queue time (while horde 1-30 seconds) after the introduction of "cross-realm BG"

Cross-faction Battlegrounds has been a thing for a long while now (albeit as an opt-in; see "Mercenary Mode" in many forum posts).

It is generally well received by everyone I know. Few players care about who they are fighting, they only care about playing a battleground. Cross-faction allows for quicker and fuller battleground experiences.

The only concerns I've heard are imbalances inherent to the older battleground settings (e.g. Alterac Valley) and the imbalance of certain racials becoming prevalent in battlegrounds. But all things considered, those are fairly minor concerns to the majority of the playerbase, and it is presumed that if you were truly 110% interested and dedicated to PVP, you would be best served playing on Blackrock server.
