Five people ganking some person trying to farm herbs may be effective, but it's also completely unsatisfying. Not only that, but what makes WPvP fun is defeating a tough opponent. The idea of a fair fight just doesn't enter into the equation and ultimately this makes it very unlikely for any WPvP to happen, because for WPvP to happen you need to have two opponents who both want to fight.
The result is that players will only willingly engage in WPvP when they are highly certain of victory. But they're horribly averse to getting killed. Sure, most players like killing players on the opposite faction. But because Warmode gives players bonus rewards for playing in that mode, many players feel compelled to switch it on, but then do pretty much everything in their power to avoid engaging in any kind of actual PvP. I think that the fundamental problem that Warmode has is that most of the participants using it don't actually like world PvP. In fact I think it's a great idea, but simply that it has a few critical flaws which do need to be addressed in order to turn it into the great feature it can and should be.
Don't get me wrong, I don't think that Warmode itself is a bad idea. Having spent quite a bit of time in BfA both with Warmode enabled and disabled, it's become pretty clear to me that there are some serious problems with Warmode.
