It has "died down" because of this unique phenomenon on red99 where "not doing" pve is somehow cool. On Live, as well as on other MMO's similar to EQ such as EQ2, there's multiple guilds trying to contest each other to slay the dragon. Somehow on Red99 killing the dragon is maligned as something embarrassing. As long as the so-called "hardcore pvpers" have this attitude, then there will continue to be a dearth of meaningful pvp that doesn't involve bind points and catching solo people out during Euro hours. Simply wiping the server will only provide 3-4 weeks of that initial excitement before it turns into the same thing all over again.
Red99 needs another guild or two who are interested in actually playing EverQuest, and a continual flow of PvE progression things, such as AA's, which gives incentives to people to keep logging on and playing, thus creating more PvP opportunities.
EQ is a game about PvP over PvE. Not throwing down in EC for the hell of it. It's also comical to hear all these hardcore pvper's talk as though they're here for the pvp, when they can't be found in open world PvP without a gank squad and multiple clickies searching for guaranteed wins.

You don't say? I remember when your guild locked down exp hot spots and prevented PVE prior to velious.
Nothing to do with raid content for new or existing players. Go play on a luclin enabled server if you want luclin.
