You are wrong. The majority of the PvP community has been playing these pvp servers for years and all enjoy fresh restarts after things get stale. This is the first server to just abandon the project and leave it in the same spot for eternity.

I would follow the population but if RoZ and red99 restarted today i would rather play roz because I lost faith in the devs/gms being able to manage a server here.

Go play the Zek servers, they reset as I understand it.

Happy for you.

Classic > interests of staff playing here

Brown99 item loot, let's go boys

You can already loot and see all the items displayed. Make droppables outside primary/secondary/ranged and bags lootable. Classic box. Done.

PS no Amelindas or sundawgs allowed

I play blue because there isnt a racial pvp server (ie: Tallon Zek ruleset) - if green were to become that, I would stop playing blue. I think many others would too. Reason being you are not kos to everyone, only other races.

Then of course you would have to figure out how dark races will raid without bards, druids and rangers....

Innoruuk and Karana Half elves are evil. Fixed!

hardcode the teams and if they coordinate around that god bless.

teams provide a built-in support base for new and casual players.

item loot is a great idea in theory when people dream of 6 guys in rags prying a fungi off of an unrest twink but in reality it just makes more people ragequit in an environment where low population and a relatively low interest in everquest pvp is already an issue.

not that a teams, item loot, or teams+item loot server will ever exist anyway.

If training is illegal hard coding teams would be possible but a GM nightmare just like Red99 was. I like no rule servers other than cheating/3rd party programs though so you don't have to rely on GMs to enforce things, which always turns into petition quest.

Item loot works really well on RoZ, worn items cannot be looted. Only 1 item in inventory (including what is in bags) and coin. You really only end up looting cash gems, consumables or items the person was just farming. There have been rare instances of things like AoNs or dragon loot being taken during mass pvp right after a dragon kill.

Yeah, teams complicate a lot. I think the safety net people feel with teams gives them the courage to try PvP but if they just tried it without teams they would realize it is fine. There is always a guild that will take you in and provide you the "team" you want. Also, PvP servers are smaller and there are only going to be like 5 guilds max so the teams are pretty close to what a hard coded teams server would be.

The last thing you want is a level 1 cleric with DA on your team running towards you with a train and you can't do anything about it.
