I played a halfling druid named Djanis <Insanity's Edge>.

I remember several of those names, TB and IE were allies at one point.

Looking forward to team99.

Any PVP focus guild went to war and allied several times. I saw someone post about it in another thread (I think Nirgon) but the unique aspect RZ had was it's politics. It was the only server with FFA pvp. Before the sabbat dissolved and AD came to power, there weren't any huge uberguilds. Lot's of small well organized ones that came together and elected a council, had a DKP system etc. It's really crazy when you think about it, I would literally be fighting a guild and an hour later at raid time we grouped up and killed some PVE content together.

The fact you could enforce policy was what made the server unique. I remember we were at war with some guild and the guild leader happened to be on the sabbat council. Well, enchanter PoH arms or something dropped and he awarded it to an ench in his guild instead of me when it was my turn. There were like 8 of us tB'ers there and we dropped raid and facerolled the 12 or 13 members of his guild up in Hate. Everyone else just stopped and watched because they knew it had to be done. Then we rezzed them back in and kept raiding. Last time that crap ever happened. :P

Team PVP on SZ was fun, definitely more PVP but a lot of it felt artificial. The only real reason I had to kill a dwarf paladin was the fact he was on the other team. Some very epic battles there for sure, and I'm looking forward to t99! I think my fondest memory of that server was when my guild Nine went to war with Infeste Nex because their teenage crap talking guild leader. I think the final kill count was like 130-4 in our favor after a week or two and in order to end the war we necro sac'd their guild leader down from level 60 to 55.

I'm a total carebear now though, but hopefully t99 will awaken my killer instinct!
