Lol @ no x-teaming on SZ. We x-teamed constantly in Hate if it served our interests, and so did everyone else. You must have pretty out of the loop, because it was pretty rampant, and we were always pretty unapologetic about it.

Examples, please. I think your idea of 'cross teaming' is different than mine.

Next, I have no idea what you're basing your 'teams = more population' argument around, but you're ignoring the only population check that could possibly serve as a test, which is when all 4 Zek servers were up and running at once.
Population: RZ (no hardcoded teams) > VZ/TZ (softcoded teams) > SZ (hardcoded teams)
If you're going to claim 'teams= more population' the burden of proof is on you to prove it, because any data that we have indicates otherwise.

That is a really a bad example to base everything on. The servers weren't all released at the same time. If SZ had been released at the same time, I have no doubts that it would have held a higher population.
Another thing is Everquest was the first really popular MMO to come out. FFA was really all we knew.
One burden of proof came from my example of why there are no more games that come out that have FFA PVP. You know.. the one point you conveniently passed right over without comment. If FFA is so awesome and superior, then why is there not a huge outcry for it to return in MMOs? Because it sucks.

And finally, I'm not going to even dignify the 'if you don't like the people you're hardcoded to be on a team with, then just reroll' argument with a response.

Why not? People reroll all the time. These are called alts. Just make an alt on a different faction and see how you like it. If you came from SZ, then you would know this happened a lot.
