Befriending the enemy

WoW
Before you read any further, this is a geeky post about World of Warcraft - so if you don't find that interesting, you can stop reading now.
I have got into the habit of playing a Battlegrounds game with my Shaman in the mornings, before I get stuck into work (this being a habit since two days ago). It's the character that I play with Elisse, so I'm not allowed to level while she's not about. But since battlegrounds don't give experience, I figure that's okay.
Shaman's aren't a popular PvP class, and I'm often the only one in the game, but today there was a shaman called Ceren playing on the Alliance side who was really good. So after the game I created an alliance character on their server and let them know I was impressed. We both agreed we hated each other and talked tactics for a bit - each giving the other pointers.
It's nice talking to a civilised opponent who doesn't mind giving advice to the enemy, it's a shame I had to go to lengths to do so - it would have been nice to just send a note at the end of the game.
