WoW PvP Question..

I was a hardcore WoW player from release to about BC..this summer I played to level 68 then had to stop due to some commitments that were taking much of my time..

My question is, at level 80 how similar is the PvP to when I played back in the day at level 60. Is it still as fun as the glory days of PvP or close to being as fun? I've heard lots of QQs about how its not fun, the balance sucks, and the arenas blow but I'm wondering if someone who doesn't have their QQ glasses on could tell me how the game actually is. Is it worht playing?

Thanks

At this point if you are mostly interested in PvP, its a little hard to recommend.

Damage has gone up considerably. It is not unheard of for Rogues to kill players of any class, with any kind of gear in less than 4 or 5 seconds. Might be fun for the Rogue, but not for the one getting attacked. You can kill nearly anyone in less than 10 seconds if you are a Hunter, Deathknight, kitty Druid, Retribution Paladin, or a Mage. If you plan to heal in PvP be ready for a really frustrating time as you will be killed very quickly, and most of your teammates will die before you land a slow heal off.

The developers are aware of the high burst damage in PvP but they are currently taking a "wait and see approach." I dont agree with it, but the solution to it isn't simple.
