I'd prefer another red starting with the current ruleset as well, but i'll take whatever i can get.

More crucially, things like what do you do if one of the faction has 2 strong guilds like seal team on green, the other 2 factions get discouraged and start losing numbers, and it just spirals downward like that. At least in FFA teams can get shuffled, you dont feel like youve wasted time on your char because of that, might hop on the pve zerg train to experience zones, etc... on teams its all locked in.
Something custom to enhance the losing teams chances

Then if they continue to tank, declare one team victor and rename the server “West Server” or “East Server” for the rest of server history and the server becomes Tallis
Zek rules or it’s really over and it becomes the custom r99 ruleset we have today.

I would settle for teams or anything to attract blueberries to come and pvp instead of /random for FTEs

Ya I dig that! Make mischief randomizing too. Or diablo ii style loot tables with classic stats and a mix of more weapons and armor stat types.

I mean im only against teams if things like this arent discussed and thought about beforehand. I would actually enjoy more a well thought-out teams server because ive never played that and im sure it would be alot of fun. But between a no-thoughts-given-flick-on-the-switch-and-forget-about-it teams server and a FFA server that doesnt need any thought beforehand, easy choice.

I'm just saying, eventually there is a likelihood that one team will win and the chances of some other people coming to contest them becomes essentially zero. At that point, the server is won by them and gains their name and it becomes an FFA server, preferably with item loot rules but if its about to be abandonware it just gets merged to red 1.0 which becomes named RED WEST or RED EAST which is their prize for victory. Red 1.0 people can't complain cuz there is only 50 active and the name of the server should be of no consequence to the retired players.

TEAMS with perhaps the /guildwar function enabled? This could allow guilds to go rogue and turn on their own team. Certain obvious measures would need to be implemented to stop people from abusing the system. For example, once /guildwar is declared, members cannot de-guild or leave to avoid retribution for a certain length of time, etc. This would also help solve the problem of 1 team gaining supreme dominance. Think on it my fellow reds.
