Why isn't the guildwar function in game?

Consider guilds of pvp community existing solely for pvp. That would definitely be quite a project though. I'll just let the idea circulate and see what interest exists on the player end for participation.

Not that I am remotely qualified to comment on what makes for a good PvP scene, but I could see the RP as well as the purely tactical appeal of having a couple of guilds existing solely for the purposes of PvP with each other. Good vs Evil perhaps?

But I imagine the appeal of PvP for its true afficionados is the ability to jump out and ruin the day of pretty much any other person on the server whom they are able to ambush. Guild based PvP might not be their cup of tea.

Didn't SOE try a Teams-based server at some point? I wonder if the success or otherwise of that server might give some insight as to how well a guildwar function might work in P99?
