VZ/TZ failed for a few reasons.
1) Wipes. No one knew when a wipe would occur and to play a toon all the way up to 50 or 60 only to have the box wiped sucked. I played on box 2.0 and only played a month on 3.0 because I did not want to waste my time.
2) Hacks. Sorry but people had them. Did not make the server fun at all.
3) Item loot. This resulted in naked casters running around (I was one of them) All I needed was my pet and a DD so having great gear did not make a huge difference.
I am ALL FOR this Sullen Zek ruleset. I like that there is no level resriction, but you do not get rewarded for killing noobs. I also like the idea that instead of item loot, you can collect insignias and trade them for items when you have enough. This makes it so you have to be pretty good at pvp, not just get the last shot on someone fighting a mob making it a one and done deal.
