If red were to ever be restarted, would you support PvP teams?

My blue friends told me they tended to take mostly PvE deaths during PvP because people would wait for them to pull before attacking, or root them as they tried to quad or w/e. Not one of them complained to me about the huge xp hit for PvP deaths :P

Well thats because they were too blue.

Doing /who regularly is something you learned to do very early on Rallos, and filling a shitlist.

And here's where that chivalry comes in, imo. On VZ we waited for the enemies to finish killing their NPCs before engaging (except with some guilds who were way mean and liked to CC/train and whatever). Maybe seems blue to some, but the attackers still had the upperhand because the NPCs hurt their hp/mana pools.

Cutthroat tactics have their place, but is it appropriate in every situation? idk

Yeah on Rallos we had PKs and anti-PKs, which you learned early who was who as well. I dont think people ever frowned on rooting someone who was fighting a mob, as long as you were doing it to the other side.

We call it tactical advantage where im from

Well there are multiple approaches to EQ PvP, and I'm not saying any one is better than another. Just seems like the server could have retained some more players had the players not been so ruthless about their tactical advantages. You were condemning the dev decision to include xp death upon PK, but you're fine with NPCs being used to your advantage in PvP. Seems kind of odd.
