when game mechanics permit, "lawless" behaviour (removal of safe zones) there will invariably be those who use the rules to maximum and simply say, its within the rules. those people would in fact be "correct"
in terms of morality we can debate that all day but here's the thing... people can choose and you can also choose, not to go into pvp zones, without the expectation that perhaps some "less than honorable person" (in your personal opinion) WILL in fact kill you
now, there's also a roleplaying and a "game" way to deal with this
the "victim" can have a large group, a network of friends, people can choose to black-list people who dont live up to their moral standard
so lets say you have an op battle... well you can support, and not-support who you want. you can deal with the people aspect and rally support, or not. this is all within the roleplay and the game itself
luckily nothing terribly valuable is in pvp zones that a low level player needs to be there for, so if i go to those zones i go knowing im there for valuables, i gear up accordingly, have people, or, i sneak and take my chances and expect to dig with a bag of good loot
atys is a place where some people choose to kill where it is allowed, and its not real life. luckily there isnt a large segment of my town that chooses to kill where it is allowed. id have to move or remove the people. same with the game. you either have to move, or deal with the people.
if its not enjoyable, spend time doing something else that is
life is short, enjoy it however you can
