Today i was on the toilet and I was thinking about something very profound. What if someone had the gonads to made a HYPER-Accelerated-XP ladder Pvp Server(TM) that only lasted maybe 6 months or so then wiped.

Rules:

Items(Exluding Primary/secondary slot) and coin are lootable upon death.

Classic, Kunark, and Velious would all be available within the first 8 weeks. With continents opening as bosses are killed.

The reasoning behind the wipe/inflated xp would be to promote pvp instead of poop socking. Also, the inflated XP would give a fighting chance to the more casual players who only have a few hours a week to spend on EQ but still want to "compete".

I remember seeing the 600 people on opening day of P99 red. Those people WANTED to PVP but never really got a chance to. I think they all got bored to death and quit because of the grind WELL before they even had a chance to PVP or see their character develop.

There are definitely a few hundred hardcore EQ players lurking around that want to play but won't touch this because of the XP.

I don't know if anyone else feels this way but the only reason I log on now a days is the slight chance there might be PVP. Looking at the server population lately and I don't think i'm the only one who finds the grinding pointless w/o PVP targets.

Anyways, I know "custom" servers don't last more then a week in this community but I'd figure this might work.
