I seriously doubt that. Rallos was really the only server that had anti-PK guilds, and maybe that was because of item loot sure. But now that all the people on all 4 servers are here, there is practically no chance of all of us going anti. We grew up as PKs, and some would say it's in our blood now.

There's no going back to the glory days of RZ, or any of the 4 live servers.

It has nothing to do with glory days, it's just server rules. People will become anti pk if they are PvE focused and all of the big guilds on p1999 are.

on Rallos I was in a small neutral guild and always thought of the pk/anti tags as just names for your pvp preferences.

PK guilds: if we see you and you are not in our guild... we will kill you.

Anti guilds: if we see you and you are in any of the following guilds (list) we will kill you, additionally if you have a reputation as a pk (for those not guilded) we will kill you.

Neutral guilds: if you mess with us or our friends we will kill you, otherwise we don't care about you.

unguilded folks: wild cards! adding a little spice to your pve experience...

so that said, I suspect the rule set has very little to do with those sorts of groupings -- there are still going to be folks who fall into those category. there are going to be guilds you know full well will attack you on sight, those that you can trust, and of course those wild cards, the spice of life.

what the rule set determines is why someone would choose to put themselves in the various categories... i think some folks who would settle in the neutral category could be swayed to either pk or anti based on the rule set.

on a side note... eq2 had some fun pvp mostly because you got some really decent exp from killing players, that and you couldn't see their chat QQ.
