When you die, your character is deleted. Full PVP, no level ranges.

when you die, you reset to level 1 with zero skills, and your body is free loot. PvP started at 6+ and also there were zero no drop items, and I do believe when this was on live there was only the original 3 continents, so no Ikkys.
Of course they may do whatever they want here, I'm more hopeful for Project M than discord.

Hardcore PvP Server Opens
Dec 19th, 2003 at 11:08 AM by Allakhazam

There's a new server in town. Fear it. Here's the press release: ---------------- MAYHEM AND CHAOS REIGN ON EVERQUEST'S NEW PLAYER VS PLAYER DISCORD SERVER You Can Run, But You Can't Hide -- Life or Death is the Only Option and the Last Few Players Standing Win! Norrath is normally a very safe, secure land. We're changing that. As of December 19th, a new level of excitement and competition will be added to EverQuest as Discord, our new competition PvP server goes live. This new server will only be live for a few short weeks, as Sony Online Entertainment challenges our community to discover who amongst them is the fiercest wizard or warrior. Discord is a hardcore Player vs. Player server, offering players fast-paced gameplay with the thrill of eminent danger and the agony of defeat. The battle begins December 19, 2003 and ends January 12, 2004 with the highest-scoring survivors proclaimed the winners. Battles are fought to the death and the slain will not be restored or resurrected for any reason. Any character slain will be recreated as a newbie and will have to start all over again. Corpse looting is allowed, but you'd better hurry, as all corpses will decay in 30 minutes. Each EverQuest account will be allowed one character on the Discord server. Players can reach level 50 with no Alternative Advancements, while an increased experience modifier will facilitate faster paced gameplay. Points are based on the victims, not the killer. Players can only gain points from characters that are within 20 levels of them and higher level targets will earn more points. The point total is distributed evenly between each person in a group with any fraction of a point rounded up to a full point. Additionally, if your character is slain, half of your earned kill points are lost. The top six surviving players with the most kill points on January 12, 2004, will be proclaimed victorious. The six victors will receive honors that will forever remind Norrath or their strength and bravery. The victorious will be bestowed the following prizes: * A class-appropriate item will be named after each winning character in the upcoming EverQuest expansion, the Gates of Discord. As an example, a winning Ranger may have a magical bow named after their character, while a Wizard might have an enchanted staff given their name. * Each winning character will receive their named item shortly after the new EverQuest expansion, Gates of Discord, launches. * Winners will be allowed a one-time transfer of their character and all gear from the Discord server to another server of their choosing. * Winning characters will be awarded a unique title that distinguishes them from their fellow Norrathians. Discord is not for the weak or fainthearted, so there will be no in-game support; in other words, Game Masters will not be watching over your shoulder! For more information on the Discord Server rule-set please visit: www.everquest.com.
The winners from original Discord:
Redwin the 24th level Halfling Druid
Dang the 24th level Gnome Magician
Awakened the 20th level High Elf Wizard
Korpo the 24th level Gnome Magician
Searyx the 37th level Dark Elf Cleric
Trindamere the 18th level Dark Elf Necromancer

No idea. Just found the list here (http://www.mombu.com/games/everquest/t-discord-server-pvp-winners-3589644.html). The original article linked in that thread is broken now days.
Would imagine it was in order though since level 24 was apparently the sweet spot with the +/-20 level score system.

Unless there was more than one discord server, I don't recognize any of those names except Searyx. Is this the same server that had the 2 shaman brothers who were using warp hacks to kill lots of people? I remember there was a beastlord/cleric duo that was around level 40, and they seemed to be the highest at the time I thought the server was ending.
Me and my buddy both boxed mages on this server, but he had to ninja afk and we both ended up losing one of our mages. Then a gnome wizard zoned in and powned us while we were fighting mobs. Definitely a fun server.

If there's boxing on the discord server it'll ruin the point of it.

If the point is to replicate the actual EQ live discord server, then boxing & SEQ and MacroQuest and any and all other imaginable hacks have to be allowed. That is, it must have quite literally zero GM presence nor any other form of customer support. Of course that would make the server pointless, but then pointlessness seems to be the goal of most EQ PvP so... v0v

lol there are so many holes in their plan to have Voting keep the server progressing slowly... first of all, I think that the people that would like to stay in classic, lower expansions are a drastic minority, i mean look at p99 there are people here that want luclin and PoP and shit.. let alone the vast majority of people that think Vellious is the best era.
I started this post when I got to rule #4. you must be within 20 levels of the current level cap to [vote] Lol that is outrageous... obviously the people that would NOT want the expansions to unlock, are the lower level, people that like to wander around the karanas not leveling but just looting meat and shit, look at greengrocer, hes fuckn lvl 1! lol
anyway.. I just like to laugh at Sony and all their stupid asshattery when it comes to running EQ
Mark my words, all expansions will roll out with a 'yay' vote being the majority every time haha

"Here is how the current progression servers work"
Rule #4 is listed under how the current servers work, and the new servers will have a vote on if they are going to vote for unlocks or just have them timed.

Obviously you didn't play on the original discord server then, cause plenty of people boxed. I anticipate there won't be boxing allowed because the GM's decide that, but original discord was for the most part, GM free. I mentioned the 2 shaman brothers who were using cheats, and they were able to do that for a few weeks because no gm's were on. It has its pro's and cons. some people just enjoy that FFA, ruthless style, anything goes and the consequences are dire atmosphere.

Ya Luclin and original EQ were the best of all-time. Followed by Kunark, then Velious. Excited for Velious, but once Velious has been expended for a long time it would be wonderful to look at Luclin as a possibility. Been with the project since 2009, and will never give up faith that it will be a strong possibility. Very admirable of them to do the Discord too. One of the happiest days of my p99 life to hear this progressive, and community satisfying news.

no. luclin is the worst
Why? Is it because of the new graphics? Beastlords? The fact that it's "on the moon" and not "Norrath"? Paludal Caverns and Vah Shirs?"
Personally, i think Luclin was one of the best, if not the best. The AA system and the new spells made it so that the classes were a little bit more balanced.
The zones were beautiful, intimidating and mysterious. Katta Castellum, Akheva Ruins, Umbral Plains, lots of creepy and weird mobs that were a breath of fresh air because after killing a trillion orcs/goblins/kobolds/frogloks, a change in scenery was needed.
I'm far from a lore guy, i usually give my fucks only for the game mechanics and stuff like that, but Luclin's lore captivated me. Vex Thal meaning "Sacred Heart". They invented a whole new language, akhevan, for this expansion, how can you not think that's cool, lol.
My opinion is probably due to the fact that i started playing EQ and got hooked during Luclin and played through PoP/LoY/LDoN. For me, Luclin is Everquest.
