Right?
Really there is probably a spectrum:

Pure PVE: each (group of) player's experiences are independent of the others. It would require instances, so I would say Diablo or WoW come pretty close to this.

EQ: mostly PVE, but players can choose to cooperate or compete, which mostly occurs via cockblocking/racing.

EQ PVP: Players can actually attack each other, opening up a whole new level of griefing

EQ Trains: Given the relative strength of the monsters and players, I think this actually a much more brutal form of PVP than actual PVP, and they do not allow trains on red. Considering that a non-FD class can do absolutely nothing about being trained repeatedly by an FD class, it's hard to consider that anything other than griefing. At least on a PVP server the warrior can try and kill the monk/necro/sk; in VP 90% of the players are pure targets.
