Death in EQ sucks. EQ PvP can be frustrating, because the game wasn't tuned around PvP balance. If someone wants to be a huge dick to you and inconvenience you it's very easy for them to do so in EQ PvP. This is why most people don't play on Red, and won't try it.
If Red was more like Rallos Zek was in '99 to '04, with top raiding guilds using PvP as politics instead of just rampant PvP, p99 Red would be far more successful, imo. TL;DR, EQ PvP is too unforgiving and frustrating for people who don't consider PvP their primary reason for playing.
