No, I actually like the ruleset. I read the original post, which says item loot or other ideas of pvp death consequences. I tend to agree with the original poster that harsher penalties create a more active self-governing playerbase. I think PvP rewards and penalties are necessary for a successful PvP server. I also read the following responses, the first one beginning with

It has been proven endlessly that making PvP/death more costly just encourages the vast number of douchebag present here to grief and harass as much as they possibly can. They already will, but at least they can't completely fuck the game up for others the way they'd be able to with itemloot.

Some responders talk only of item loot while some mention penalties in general.
