I would warn you this, if this is your first PVP experience, as it was mine, don't think for a second people are content to engage you, win, and leave. On this server victory to many people means that you have been forced to plug and log off for multiple hours, and, they hope, that you will ultimately quit.
For the most part the community really sucks. There are some genuine nice people, but don't be shocked the first time someone tells you to come for SOW and you get ganked and corpse camped for hours by someone you've never met before. Loot and scoot? Non-existent. If you die in a dungeon you may as well log for the day, you're not getting your corpse.
In short, while you won't see the type of trash talking in game you see on the forums, the actions of people are very similar to what you see on the forums. The only silver lining is that when one of the top guilds declares "victory," and they finally leave, the server will slowly become repopulated as the timeline progresses with more relaxed people who still PVP with a vengeance but not as if the goal of every PVP encounter is to make someone quit this game.
