The best way I see for building on the future of PvP is getting involved in a well structured and organized ladder with leagues and tournaments. The first pc game ladder community that came to mind for me was TWL so I made a post suggesting they add STO to their collection of PC Game Ladders.
Please post your support or add anything you feel I missed, or ideas you have to the TWL post so the admin's over there can see geniune interest and support from our community:

If anyone knows of other PC Game ladder community's, lets approach them about getting an STO league setup or if it come's down to it, create one of our own. Help/suggestions/critisicms are all welcome.

Also an external ranking system rarely ever works.
Sorry to sound pessimistic.
I would like to push for them to add something in game even if it's generic and basic for now.
This TRIBBLE is stupid. WoW ruined this for me. Stop suggesting this trash.
I never played DAoC but I heard a lot of good things about it.
I had the first level 40 (and first RR40) Squig Herder on Praag Open RvR back in the day.
How did that system compare to Warhammer.
Just realm ranks.
Overromanticized. I played that thing for over a year and all their 3-way RvR system did was magnify the effects of population imbalances and encourage clumps of people to push back and forth endlessly between spawn points.
