Because it's in the nature of men to solve issues with force, women queue up like little bitches asking their overlords what they can and cannot do.
Men have something called testosterone pumping in their bodies and men do not like when other men try to take over their territory. Keep drinking your soy latte.
It’s actually a bit of a misconception that testosterone increases aggression in humans

On one hand, there are about 10 times as many men as women in prison for violence. But on the other hand, there has been no proven correlation between high doses of testosterone and aggressive behaviors. As someone who is an avid lifter and former steroid user, I have shot up to 800mg testosterone per week and can vouch that “roid rage” really isn’t a thing. I noticed, like many others, no negative change to mood

That being said, I think you do have a point that having a pvp solution to the problem removes the need to constantly involve GM’s. That has always been WoW’s policy on pvp servers: if there’s a pvp solution to the problem, then there is no problem. I think unfortunately EQ’s pvp might involve more sketchy tactics. I remember from playing on Sullon Zek server back in the day that rez box training was pretty rampant during pvp conflict in pve areas. That’s where someone dies somewhere, gets a rez, then leaves the message to accept the rez open while they round up every KOS mob in the zone. They then run the mobs over to the opposing faction, then click yes to accept the rez which instantly poofs them out of existence leaving the mobs to kill everyone nearby. Those kind of exploits would still require GM intervention
