O my fault, I forgot Wynch was a slut character in PDM.
I'm all for having no rules, but the majority will not be. Not all trainers are created equal -- some people are a lot better at it than others. No rules on the shit box would have led to a much quicker server death.

Only 4 ppl had access to Wynch, 2 of them brothers. You still mad Wynch was above you in the tanking order or someshit?
Some people are better at PvP than others, so remove pvp?
There being a higher pop without training as opposed to with it is debatable. Remove all the GM intervention from VZ/TZ and it would have lasted alot longer IMO (sans the zonecmd routine, which, if not for possible GM favoritism would have never occurred either... GG GMs.).
Personally I am simply advocating a more live like experience, and attempting to avoid the problems of VZ/TZ that ran off DROVES of the population. Which at the time, was constant qq'ing shit about GM favoritism, and people catching bans based upon hearsay and a GM /zone'ing into a plane after 2 trains and banning the third.
The server, to truly attract and retain players, needs to be stable. Period. GM enforced PnP will not add to stability. You will constantly have people trying to get others banned, or trying to redefine "training", or when one GM burns out and a new one comes in you will have a different interpretation of events.
And by drama, I meant forum drama. Training, I would think, would create more in game drama, and some QQ / "I wanna fight you IRL" posts. Subjective banning would create more forum drama and people flipping out on the forums with the same shit we have heard for 3? 4? years on VZTZ.
I just dont see how you guys can be so blind to think GM intervention will help with longevity of a EQ PvP server.
Imo, the only thing, ONLY THING, people should get banned for is blatant exploiting / hacking. I personally, will not waste the time on a server, where it takes months to hit level cap, and can be banned on the subjective whim of a GM. Esp when I know the causes for VZ/TZ declining, are not being avoided.
