Ah, PVP.  A sport that truly separates the Sith from the Smugglers.  But how does one acquire those elusive MVP votes, guaranteeing you fame, fortune and glory (at least for 30 seconds after the match is over)?  While nothing is guaranteed, especially since these are actual people voting, here are a few things you can [...]
