I think this is the effect of the PVE/PVP overlap which I have seen in many other games such as WOW.
Generally people who want to PVP want to fight. Go in .. inflict damage and kill stuff. That is what PVP should be.
PVP is a way of playing this game if PVE is not your thing and dancing around with a first aid kit just doesn't do it for you.
Healers play PVP like it is a PVE boss. Shield, heal, run away, shield, heal .... boring!
Most hot blooded PVP players couldn't bare that kind of game. They want to kill!
I think that the perfect solution to this is to have a one click PVE and PVP build and gear sets.
Get rid of healers from PVP all together and make it a mans fight again and not a first aid competition.
WHen a healer fancies PVP, click the PVP build and kit button and fight like a man ... instead of heal like a girl.
The fact that 1 or 2 good healers can create a crappy game for everyones is in my opinion wrong.
