It's a terrible idea to think the Evil side won't dominate again. You can spout all the supposed veteran sentiment all you want. As long as necromancers and sks are unique to one team that's an incredible lure and boost on a pvp teams server. The counter lure is suppose to be druids and paladins but as long as they are split between two teams, it just becomes too dilluted of a force strength. I think sullon zek was my favorite EQ experience, I am with everyone on everything else just 2 teams instead of 3. Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it

I think you are underestimating the impact of the team balancing changes I proposed. FFA PvP among the Evils would make them a less cohesive force. Smaller numbers of Goods and Newts would have a greater impact than they did on SZ. And the bonuses for those teams would attract more players to reduce the population discrepancy further. Also, most people coming from Blue would probably roll Neutral or Good to avoid the prospect of FFA PvP on evil.
That being said, I would rather see this server with 2 teams than not at all. But I think 3 teams is best and provides the richest experience, despite the inherent balancing challenges.
