I stopped playing when they merged Tallon Zek with Vallon Zek because it was no longer fun when people started to try and exp pk you.

And I burned out of Red as well because of the douche bags that just wanted to piss you off, not have legitimate PvP.

Legitimate PvP where the primary goal is to kill someone using your own charachter's melee or spells to kill someone else, is incredibly fun, especially in EQ where it takes a time investment to give yourself that much more edge in PvP and it gives the grind more meaning when it makes you a more powerful PvPer. Having to exp because someone trained you several times, is not fun.

I'd love to play on red if people honestly wanted to PvP. Unfortunately, that's not what they want. What they want is jollies over fucking someone over as badly as they can because they're psychopaths.

EDIT: I was on Red, day 1 and leveled a tune. I also played Garage Box for the life of that server waiting for Red. I quit with everyone else when it was apparent that a few bad actors were not going to be censored.

Even just a single rule of "no intentional exp deaths," and the server would still be alive today. Those of you that get off on fucking someone over as badly as you can are the ones that destroyed the server and are why there's no more than 50 people on it at any time and none of us are willing to come back.
Agree with you.

Out of all our servers, i'd probably prefer red.. but a game is no fun by yourself. I think most folks don't like PvP anymore in any games. Even in WoW pvp servers have largely gone out of favor over PvE. PvP is going away from RPG's
