Is it forced PvP or can one play the game without PvP?

    You don't have to kill people, but you should definitely prepare to be killed.

    If you were playing on the Phillipeans servers, there would be. What will happen here is not yet confirmed, though. I suspect that there will be this option on one server, and free pk on the other(s).

    No, the PvP is worldwide, and cant be rejected.

    However, you can first PK (And get PK'd) when you become level 30. If you kill someone who doesnt attack back, you'll increase your chance of dropping items on death.
    Further there's no exp loss when dieing, so its not really a big deal, unless of course, you love your huge e-****.

    I read from PH server about PK system:
    Players who have just logged in can change their automatic PK-Enabled status to PK-Protected. However, if they switch to PK-Enabled again afterwards, they must remain in PK-Enabled mode for 10 online hours before being able to change back to PK-Protected. (Logging out and logging in after enabling the 10-hour timer does not reset it to the automatic PK-Enabled status)

    so does tat mean even after level 30 I should have the option of changing to pk-protected?

    If the server has this function, yes. In the Malaysian version, this was taken out to promote pk. In the Chinese version, there were servers for both playstyles. Personally, I prefer not to have this as PK is pretty fun.

    I hope there's a channel just to PK(where you do lose items/exp) and that you don't lose exp/items in the arena.

    One sided PK was a contributing factor in the warlord situation on Oracle.
    Without fear of guild KOS, smaller guilds challenges would likely overwhelm Warlords ability to fake-bid their own territory. No smaller guild is going to challenge Warlord tho because its a virtual death sentence for that guild.

    Anyone who played on oracle has seen it many times.

    WarLord can be overcome... Problem, though. Black, ReBorn, and New Era/Malaysia need to band together and attack at the same time. Can't happen either, because all three of these hate each other.

    Meh.

    You are not forced to PK or get PKed on the PvE server. There will be two of each per west and east coast.

    But PvE can get boring and if you cant kill someone who keeps annoying you it's not worth it. :)

    Yes, if you play on the servers labelled "PvE" you will have an option to turn pvp on or off.

    Every guards will attack you and one-hit kill you if you go to close to them.

    This apply to guards outside of city as well, like those near bridges.
