I think the chances of a new Green anytime soon are small, and the chances of a new Red even smaller.
That being said, as I've said many times before, if P99 is serious about being classic (and thus having a PvP option), that option needs to be teams. Any sort of individual PvP devolves into de-leveled epic-wielding twinks ganking newbies, and that just kills all interest in the server. With teams, the PvPers have an incentive to go fight "the other team", or to defend the newbies of their team. It completely changes the alignment of incentives, towards a positive/healthy server. Such a server will never be as popular as blue/green, but it could at least sustain a decent population, perpetually.

I believe any issues though would be basically resolved with timely fresh starts. All the red players have been wanting for many years now is a new server where everyone starts at level 1 again. If the server automatically rolled all their characters into blue at the end of the Velious timeline and started again, I think we would see a very healthy population regardless of ruleset. Red players like to point out specific issues with the ruleset and blame that for the poor population, but what really killed the server is stagnation. Starting things over again on even footing would bring most people back, and again bring in some bluebie types to experience the chaos. Anyway, thanks for your thoughtful reply. Idk why most bluebies get so mean whenever pvp is mentioned.

Sadly I think the magic we experienced with our soft-coded race-based teams will never happen again. If that exact ruleset was introduced now I feel pretty certain that everyone would just xteam immediately instead of doing the fun RP stuff. Gotta go SZ hard-coded; also deity-based is actually a cooler idea imo. I was never dark team. Elf purist while leveling, then xteam scum for endgame. Did the dark team people not hate the "lighties" for their xteaming hypocrisy?
