I didn't mean to imply that PvP ruined that other server- it was the players that ruined it. MMO PvP attracts a certain type of person to it. I'm not suggesting that you, or any of the people that have asked for PvP on P99 are among those. However, you cannot deny that if PvP begins to become more prevalent, those types of people- probably the very ones who have ruined VZ/TZ (or whatever it's called) will also be attracted to P99.
No doubt most of them have already created characters here- but so far, they quickly learn that P99 has nothing for them, they get bored, and they rarely play here. If PvP takes more of a role here, those same jerks that ruined your server will come here to ruin this one, too.

I have never played on that emulator pvp server, I have just read about it on here. I would never play on a server that had no population or had a reputation for cheaters on it. I saw someone talk about project 1999 on a youtube video for some other game - I just found out about EQ emulators.
Something that will ruin a PvP server quick is knowing others are cheating. No one wants to compete with a cheater. I have heard that the emulator pvp server has cheating on it and thats why it is the way it is. It also has people running several characters at once, which I wouldn't be interested in doing. I enjoy just playing my one character and wouldn't want the hassle. This server is better with getting rid of that crap and if you could cheat on this server I would think the cheating would still exist even if there was no PvP. Its an emulator and there is nothing to lose for trying to cheat.
Its dumb to say the only reason the emulator PvP server died was because PvPers are immature and ruin communities. There are a lot of other servers with no one on them. I also don't know why you think people that enjoy PvP come here, get bored and leave. Obviously they are out there because I see a lot of threads about PvP on this site and we all come here knowing there is no PvP. I don't think any of us really planned on coming to this server and expected to have the influence to change its way. You see people having requests all the time that "aren't classic" or wanting the expansions released sooner than the current timeline. Things aren't exactly how they want but this is still the best alternative. These PvP threads really just come up from nostalgia since some of us always played PvP back in 1999.
