See this is where it is Tuff. I see how you could say it has the ability to fail
Sullon Zek peaked at 7000 active players over level 6. TZ, VZ, and RZ probably didn't get that high but the EQ PvP population is probably higher than the classic era, enthusiast population that was responsible for p1999 being created.

This server has the potential to be bigger than the blue server. It all depends on the rule set they use, teams vs no teams, and resist system. If the server goes with teams, I could see it easily having way more people than TZVZ did. If it goes FFA, I think the max you will see is 400-450.

Also, they can make minor adjustments to resists and spell damage and things like that here and there, but I think anything that dramatically alters how PvP worked on the live servers will only make population suffer (ie: things like whirl till you hurl landing in PvP).
