Yeah that whole rally the server against FU/PB etc came just short of failing though. Moral of the story: GM involvement to break up pvp in raid zones (really, really, stupid) and (admittedly) members on our side cheating burned us. Their shit almost didn't work. That war was better than any stories I've heard on SZ. I logged in Coldcut for some pvp and had my own 52 geared up wizard there, nothing was as good as the Velious battles on RZ, but maybe that's just a matter of taste for me.

Different strokes for different folks.
Even with the rampant hacking on SZ (on all sides), I wouldn't trade that server for anything. Those that were around for the Hate, ToW, Ruin, Honorbound days were the folks who wouldn't care if they got Ganked at level 40 by a level 60, because the server was FUN. They were around for the huge PvP battles. The train wars, training mobs onto a <Hate> Cursed raid. Mem blurring bosses, rapturing clerics in the middle of CH rots.
That is the one thing that this server misses the most (in my opinion). The feeling of being on a TEAM to go up against your enemy. There's no point in trying to corpse camp Holo or Nihilum, because they can just as easily be tagged in IF the next day. It's too easy to change sides here. We needed teams to serve as a 'breeding ground' for your side. But with teams, you need more people than FFA... so... whatev.
