FFA does not work in the large scale.
It wouldn't have to be on a large scale, just one server out of scores of servers.
I think FFA is amongst the dumbest things you can have in a MMORPG but some micro percentage of nutjobs enjoy it.
I vote that every person who buys gold, buys/sells accounts, or otherwise cheats at the game get banished to the FFA server with a male gnome avatar and boe green equivalent gear that can't be replaced for a month to provide fodder for the psychos.

This. Such a server would work like a month or two, and when the novelty has faded away, it would become a desert.
Maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea though - maybe the actual PvP realms would get rid of a few asshats in the process - even though griefers are usually cowards too and don't play on FFA servers.

I actually thought FFA was the only redeeming quality of AoC. I'd love to see FFA in WoW.
I basically grew up as a MMO player on Eonar/Arygos and was anti-PvP for everything. Once I actually tried a PvP server in WoW and a FFA server in AoC, it wasn't so bad and even quite enjoyable at times.
Personally, I'm tired of the two faction MMO paradigm. If SC could implement 3 factions and WC3 could implement 4 factions in an RTS, why can't a Blizzard MMO move beyond 2 factions?
Cuz then they would have to worry about the FuzzyWuzzies racial being .087% better than a BloodElfs in a PVP situation against a Gnome Rogue when being healed by a Worgen Druid. "The masses" are to blame.

If warcraft had a "Mordred" I'd reroll there in a heartbeat and never look back.

I wish WoW had a FFA server.
That way all the real miscreants and other people that make MMOs a drag for me would perhaps go there. Of course they'd be back in a month or two when they got bored of griefing each other, but at least it would be a month without them and we could put this stupid, ridiculous argument to rest.
Perhaps WoW is big enough now that the very small percentage of MMO players who would enjoy an environment like that would warrant a FFA server for it. Blizzard should do it and let those clowns put their money where their mouths are and shut them up for good.

Right.
Some of you have it right. Let us so called "griefers" go and be on our own server. That removes us from your care.
Whats it gonna cost Blizzard to add one more server to its monumental list of servers? Practically nothing relatively speaking.
So why not?

I am pretty sure Cat will be the last expansion for WOW so maybe in another year the will latch onto this idea to keep interest up for the dozen or so people that would be interested.

Why not? Because Blizzard doesn't know you want one - go tell (and convince) them, not us. 
But since you seem to want VN approval - yeah it's ok with me. Have them make as many server types as you want without changes to mine.

The problem is all the customization they'd have to do for it to work. I don't understand all the hate from other players over this but I do understand why blizzard isn't exactly jumping up and down to make it happen.

A lot of he hate coming from players comes from the fact that a FFA server would represent another voice to be heard in the mix of player voices. Players on normal and PvP servers don't want to have their issues delayed or clouded by the squalling of people on FFA servers. Players don't want their issues of balance to have to be filtered through the "What would that be like on a FFA server?" consideration.
