Server resets are the only way to breath fresh air into a stagnant server. During the time that Red99 has been up there were how many, 5? iterations of guildwars / vztz servers. All except two had different top guilds after the wipe (and vztz2.0 likely would have as well if the server wasn't blown up right after kunark release).
The best times of the server is in the initial fray right after release. Poopboxers who blow at pvp but can show up like zombies to raids get smoked. Good players who enjoy pvp can take part in the bloodbath that is a fresh server start and people who have quit for years come back at the prospects on not having to farm venril sathir and trakanon 1000 times to compete.
It's basically the entire reason why eqemu pvp servers came out, the zeks ran their course and wound up with the one dominant guild and stagnation so people would roll on emu servers to experience new server fun.
