Nobody is going to play on some nerd mental maturbation of a server that is unrecognizable from real EQ. You guys are proposing candyland.
There are already EMU's (like all of them, pretty much) that have "creative" rulesets. Nobody really plays on them. You know where the pops are? P99, because it's actual EQ, or is doing it's best to be, at least.

Like I said, it's either a custom ruleset (which need hardly be "candyland", rather very light modifications) or no server at all.
Any new server based on the existing vanilla EQ PvP rulesets (RZ, VZ/TZ or SZ) will fail very hard. A custom ruleset to address their weaknesses is needed.
If you're a "pure classic" fetishist for its own sake, that's your prerogative, but realize you're in the vast minority. Most people would rather have a server that's 99% classic and thrives than one that's 100% classic and a ghost town. And it's extremely disingenuous to compare a server with small, behind the scenes changes to emu's with tons of customized, game-altering changes.
