Yes it would sustain but now with even more neckbeards then p99 had when it started so everything thats valuable would be camped by the same people for the existence of them dropping(manastone,Guise) and raid mobs would be cleared within a month of it opening and nothing would really be different from blue other then the extended timeline that it has had.
Players' inability to grasp this reality indicates their addiction. There's always a mitigating factor that prevents the player from having "been a contendah". If they just had a fair shot... they could do X, Y and Z, too.

In a community this insular, as long as their will holds out, the same folks rule any new server. It's not like it's going to be hidden from the players with the most time to invest and the straightest path to influence. The only time I have ever seen the balance of power shift in the whole P99 community comes down to a few things: a) current top dogs burn out because b) a new group of people are willing to double down on the known tactics to tire out the status quo, or c) a pile of people get banned for cheating.

The map is out. Nothing will change. That's not necessarily good or bad. It simply is the way it is.
