#1 Unfortunately, whoever alluded to the issue of a pvp server's community being dysfunctional was completely correct. Coming from a PvP environment on Live and here on the Emu, I completely understand the dynamic that a PvP'er brings to the table in all aspects, especially in a functioning (or lack thereof) community of people. We, as a community, do not bring the typical environment that most people who play EQ want to see. As it happens though, we can tolerate one another long enough to kill each other. I guess my point is this: sure, a pvp server would bring in the dregs of society but you don't have to put up with them...we do. And by we, I mean the pvp player base. If you would like to play on a server like this without those guys, I would just make a guild dedicated to killing the loudmouths and grind them into the curb (even though I personally enjoy the humor associated with that type). That would be a pretty interesting dynamic itself. I just don't see the immaturity that pvp attracts being an issue for people I guess; it never was for me at least. But then again, I could be wrong. If you're going to have a pvp server though, you're going to have to deal with that dynamic because it is inevitable as I see it.
#2 Please don't make this server. I like my life currently.
