Vztz's population wasn't all that impressive, but at least it was consistent (52 on average according to this link

It was 300+ for a while. There were lots of problems to cause it to die such as the following stuff that went on pre-kunark:
- person hosting server stopped
- bad balance issues like casters tanking the same as warriors
- boxing was allowed so every caster not only tanked like a warrior but also had full cleric buffs so practically no HP disadvantage either
- resists altered to make nukes land more often so a mage can tank like a warrior, have practically the same hp as one from cleric bot, do 10x the dps nuking, and have a pet at the same time
- resist system that made the server known as "caster's paradise" pre-kunark
- stats like strength did nothing
- FFA tends to die fast
- melee hit boxes or sync issues screwed up so you couldn't even hit someone running away from you which was easily doable on EQ live
- probably dozens more I can't think of
