No one will play on it after a few months because EQ PvP is garbage and there's no ruleset or code that can fix it.

A new green style progression locked server with PvP would definitely see some play right now though, and if they did like "seasons" where the red server had shorter cycles through the content than the full green length then MAYBE it would maintain population more consistently. Would have to be at least half as long as green or even shorter though, and at that point its getting pretty custom and I'd say not worth the effort by the devs to appease a handful of niche players.

That’s not why people don’t play on Red. There are plenty of people who enjoy EQ PvP, but there are (or were) many people on red who made it their sole mission in life to grief and harass other players on the server. PvP in general tends to attract people like that. They made the experience terrible.

Nah, EQ PvP is booty butt cheeks. It attracting mentally ill weirdos is just icing on the poop cake.

I'd come back for a new green, like a teal server. I've always played the same class every time so far so I'd probably branch out to a new one. Maybe pick up my first ever EverQuest character, a High Elf Paladin, that I abandoned in their teens.
