Hold on, now who sounds snippy and unfriendly. *Bops Salvation on the nose*
Keth looks like he's trying to bury the hatchet, or at least that's how I perceive it by the posts in this thread alone. And he brings up some valid points which deserve some consideration. Not everyone is going to enjoy a PvP match, there are plenty of people here who are either a) Not good at it or b) Don't like to PvP much. There's nothing wrong with that. Gear is also something to bring into consideration, a good PvE set is still better than a poor PvP set.
At the same time, the competitive swandive idea, although certainly intriguing (at least to me), feels... unstructured. It would have to be judged by a neutral party, lest personal bias come into play. How would it be scored? Two people jump and shout their warcries, the team with the better one gets the point? Or is it an individual score thing? It would also have to have a more of a ruleset, as I'm afraid it could easily turn into an insult match which would do nobody any good.
Let me offer this idea instead. Don't make it a single event, instead shoot to make it a "Nesingwary Olympics", with various events that are able to suit people of all gear levels and play styles. Let's say four events spread out over the course of a month, set on a day where neither guild is doing any raiding/PvPing or other events, with an opening and closing ceremony on the first and last day of the month respectfully. The prize, which I personally feel should be offered up by both parties, should be awarded not to a specific player, but to the guild that does the best. Perhaps another prize offered up to the MVP of each guild.
As for what other events could take place, or perhaps just an alternative for the singular, decide it all event? Well, how about a Raid Race? Each Guild throws together a team and heads to one of the many available raids out there. Let's randomly say AQ 40, as it's large enough with a few trick bosses that might pose a challenge, but also low enough level so that non-85s stand at least a little bit of a chance. Or maybe Black Temple or ICC. Regardless, both teams enter the instance at the same time, and the first guild to completely clear all the bosses inside is crowned the winner.
Or perhaps just a regular old naked race, hard to go wrong with one of those. Level 1 alts running from one side of the continent to the other. First person to cross the finish line is crowned the winner.
Regardless of all my blathering and spewing out random ideas, I do hope that whatever this unpleasantness is can be fixed and maybe that some fun can be had along the way.

On the topic of Salvation as a guild; I've not really been too active on my horde characters as of late, as I personally find myself playing with my alliance guild more often than not. (Evolution for the win! *Gets attacked for her shameless Plug* )
But, with that said, the time I have spent in Salvation has been nothing but pleasant. Very relaxed atmosphere, with people willing to help and have a little bit of fun along the way. In my humble opinion, it's a guild you cannot go wrong with. Just wish that I had more time to really get to know everyone there, as opposed to being a name that logs on once every two or three days for a few minutes.
