6. Brute fury
7. /pvp count, or a /whoall that counts hidden
8. Stalker placate

Having been directed here from the General forum, hre's the votes I cast already, over there:
[ QUOTE ]
1. PvP Tutorial/Training Wheels
2. Make flight more viable in PvP
3. Lack of meaningful rewards for PvPing
4. Instanced PvP missions
5. More variety in Arena matches
6. Add rewards for participating but losing in fights
[/ QUOTE ]
I'll give the rest of the ideas here a look-see, and maybe add more stuff I like, later.
Yay! Thank you Pax. 
Most wanted to least, my top ten
1. Instanced PvP Missions
2. Cross-server PvP
3. Selectable maps
4. /pvpcount
5. PvP Tutorial/Training Wheels
6. Fury Bug
7. Placate Bug
8. PvP and PvE Builds
9. Flight Not Viable
10. Hero-Villain Balance
Only reason I have Hero-Villain Balance in the tenth spot is that it will obviously be a lot more work, and a lot more drama with the buffs/nerfs. I'd love to see it, sure, but I'd expect the other things on the list are simpler to do, and I'd rather see a bunch of them get done first.
Here you come with a stupid name like Fixer - brutalkillz_
As an occasional PvP:er at best, these are fixes that could make me look more favorably at PvP:
1. A handicap system, where a player with a high reputation gets penalized against a player of low handicap. This would make all matches meaningful.
2. There arent any meaningful rewards to encourage participation in PvP. Add zone rewards that are for PvPing, not for doing PvE activities in PvP zones.
3. Balance between melee and ranged doesn't work; melee starts overpowered and ends up puny. I don't demand powerset balance, but this is too sweeping an issue to be ignored.
4. Fly is not a viable PvP travel power.
5. Accolades should not be level-dependent.
6. A good PvP build can be very different from a good PvE build. My solution is to make powers work the same way in both styles. If some powers need to be nerfed for PvP (like Taunt), don't give them toHit check, give them a set % to fail. PvE toon design is confused by having these additional PvP-only slotting options.
My votes in no particular order:
-Selectable maps.
-paid PvP expansion
-cross server PvP
-PvP and PvE builds
-hero-villain balance
-villain lack of +perception (see above)
-Observer bot issues
-non SG arena match caps
-Instanced PvP missions
In no particular order:
Hero/Villain balance
+Perc for Villains in Sirens Call
Make Flight viable in PvP
A true headcount in zones
Fix Fury
Cross server PvP
Toggle PvP/PvE builds
Note that Killobot's votes got tabulated in this count rather than the earlier one because of the post edit.
Again, cut off is greater than or equal to three votes:

/agree -
There is a large subset of COX that is pvp only - if they were to make a PVP only server - my 15 a month and many others could fund it -
all zones/arena etc. No PVE
all char slots - pick toon - level to 50 - slot - go. I would even consider just going with a standard common io supply for slotting. If it were "here is all the ios - go get em" - the pve community might blow up. It would make the PVP a little more level as well as your no longer facing a specific IO build (max recharge, max dmg, high fire resist, dual phase - what have you).
That woulld allow for more diversity among the smaller SG's/Vg's for arena PVP (any one person can have a blaster/rad/emp/sonic/kin) - not worry about "oh my toon is not ioed out yet" - encourage people to try new roles without having to PL at toon, work on a concept build and fish for ios..
my 2 cents any how.
My top 10.
1. PvP Flight improvement (or PvP jump nerf, perhaps increase number of -jump powers or make -jump as binary as -fly so that jump powers are detoggled and can't be retoggled for the duration of -jump)
2. Hero and villain combat is not balanced, especially in the 40+ game. The most popular suggestion is to open up a set of APP for villains and allow them to respec out of their patron pools to get those.
3. Fury does not build as intended.
4. If you are killed, youll sometimes get a bounty dot on the map where you died. This can lead to having multiple dots on the map and being unable to distinguish your true bounty.
5. The lack of meaningful rewards discourages people from participating in zone PvP.
6. A player can do most of the damage to another player and still get no reward if an off team player kill steals him. Award partial credit for Bounty based on damage, as is done for XP when 2 different unteamed players defeat a mob on the street.
7. Villains have no access to ally grantable +perception in Sirens. Switch the order of sonic repulsion and clarity.
8. People often have to reset matches multiple times to get an acceptable map. Add selectable maps, as well as the ability to eliminate maps from the selection while still having a random pick.
9. When more than one team of heroes or villains is in the zone, they have no way to communicate and plan an assault without the opposing side hearing. Make request faction side only.
10. Very few people use the arena on live because of the lack of competition there, while test server arena is filled with people. Allow the arena to be cross-server.

7) Change rewards for bounty in sirens
8) Remove system matches, no one uses them at all.
9) Fix people being able to be slept or stunned after they die in an arena match and are only affecting self.
10) Adding +perception to cold secondary glacial shield
