It's simple boys, if you make a server that caters to the 'normal' crowd of EQ PvP server players and it will be dead before you know it.

The engine room (population) of any EQ server is it's casuals, therefore if you want a semi-sucessful eq pvp server (not a server with 50 nerds on it) you need to cater to the casuals.

Simple as formula.

The same 50 nerds that will play a 50 pop server will play a casual eq PvP server.

They don't need to be catered too.

All valid points but I think the opposing argument is how fun is a 20 year old MMO emulated server without a decent size population. I see both sides of opinions, maybe something in the middle so the server isn’t the same 50 stay at home sons perhaps. ? /shrugs

I've never played nor had interest in EQ PvP. A few questions I have:

1. For a seasonal team PvP server (a server that starts and ends on predetermined dates), would it be more fun to level a character or go straight to max level? In other words, is the leveling experience a must have for a seasonal server?

2. For a seasonal team PvP server, is the obtaining of gear through raids and grouping an essential part of the fun? In other words, is obtaining gear a chore or part of the fun?

3. Is there some sort of scoring system involved in team PvP?

Would play a new p99 hosted red server or a wipe, would not touch any of the other boxes and i'm sure many people feel the same way.

Do you want a fresh Teams PVP server, with a sustainable population, or do you want to keep your current pixels on Red?

What if we gave your character that migrated from Red to Blue a unique title?

Heywood the Conqueror - something like that? Showing you leveled on a PVP server.

What can we do to bring you to the table?

So basically I have a few ideas to bring to the table. In my opinion, I would like to present 2 ideas that might have been commonly thought of, alas I have never seen them.

1.) Remove cross team healing.
2.) Bring all current existing pvp characters to blue as RED status. (priest of discord).
