Realistically, I don't know how many players would stay faithful to player-driven restrictions. I imagine that the temptation to go back to Velious twinks & slaughter the players running around in vanilla gear will be too strong for some people.

It's much easier if the server admin makes the call for the players. An official relaunch also markets itself and attracts more players. A "will never be reset" hard line seems like a death knell for this type of server.

There doesn't need to be a reset to balance this stuff out. They could just limit overpowered gear based upon level/zone. Also balance melee/caster damage (and resists) better for PvP, because it's ridiculous in this era of the game, with melee dominating and casters doing virtually nothing to a well geared melee.

They already have their purely "classic" coding for blue server, they should be able to do non-classic stuff on this box.
