why dont some of you carebear raider guilds move over to the pvp server then, killing a raid target might be worthy of bragging about when you had to kill the other guild in order to take it.
or continue farming the 50 thousandth level 40 item for no purpose other than to put on a bank alt because the other 400 people on your server already have one then logging on for the big "but we were here first!" argument.

Darwoth makes good sense here. I only log in on blue to buff folks in EC now and again.
I wouldn't seriously play blue ever again...and without a red alternative, I'd move on. I love EQ, and red allows for true competition. The people that thought they were going to be soloing PK kings aren't. (With a nod to Lovely, however). Most of the population has banded together, and dying to a PK is the exception now, not the rule. (Unless it's 4am and no one's in CB but you and 4 griefers, lol).
I was here almost on day one. I loved the experience for the most part on blue...but it's not, nor will it ever be, what we all remember. Going through all the motions on blue again would not be something I want to do...because the end result would be the same.
At least on red, everyone has the power to change things. Guild alliances can break bigger guilds' holds on zones and content. Politics can play a huge role, but PvP resolves all issues.
With the right mindset, red is incredibly fun. Even when you die 15 times to some random griefer...the game then becomes outleveling them and then hitting back...or hitting back with no hope of winning, like I tend to do. (Or catching them with their pants down, and making them pay. Whatever works).
