This post is to help other people know about the problem.
I am NOT looking for a solution, it's part of the game (unfortunately) for the time being. This problem is one that will need to be addressed by the Developers. I have filed a bug report. I received my automated response ("you filed a bug report that said this...").
I'll repeat, this post is to help other people know about the problem.
Bug: Villain Archetypes (brute, corruptor, dominator, master mind, stalker) which started in Praetoria and go to Paragon City when they leave at level 20, can be found on Villain (Rogue Isles) search.
I am unsure the extent of this bug, it may effect people who swap sides other ways, et cetera.
This is an issue (mostly) due to the fact that by default you cannot receive tells from "enemy" players. Of course for PvP there are (probably) other repercussions.
For the record, my characters that have been effected have never been to the Rogue Isles or any PvP maps. Only Praetorian maps, Hero maps, the Rikti War Zone and Pocket D. My memory isn't 100% clear but I believe I've only been contacted by villains (via search) while in RWZ and thus far I have not been able to see the people contacting me, when I open search.
I have not had any (non-automated) reply from support thus far.
Hopefully they'll fix this annoyance soon (and put something useful into the Search function instead of more colours).

One side uses mind police and will "disappear" you and the other uses poison gas and bombs on civilians. Hamidon? He'll just have a tree eat you. Much simpler. If we're all going to be oppressed and/or killed by someone, it might as well be the walking trees. At least they don't speak in annoying code or doublespeak. They just devour you.
