PvP...
There's are a couple of rooms with a few diffrences in them. There are:
An SQIless/MVPless room which pretty much restricts MVP cards, some mini mvp cards, our SQIs and some customs.
A potless room, which restricts most/all healing consumables.
A non-trans room, which only restricts trans classes.
Two other normal rooms; public and arena.
Ganging occurs, and so does random KoSing.
WoE, uh.
It's pretty active. Currently there are two large guilds, and 3 mid sized guilds, with 3 normal castles opened. Two other castles are opened which are SQIless/MVPless/Potless,
one being trans, and the other being non-trans. This also answers your vanilla WoE question. :c The potless part of the castle is said to be discussed on a later time to see
what healing items should be allowed in the castle. It's also new to the server, so there aren't as many people WoEing in it.
BG, inactive.
Again, a new thing to the server. Parties are made at random times or usually after WoE. GMs have plans on making some changes to BG in the future.
Our average population ranges at around 300-600 players, depending on the time and day. I think the afk & vending population would run at around 100-200 players maybe?
We have an Ad Shop, which allows players to "donate" for most gears and cards, which include MVP cards.
Also feel free to read through our wiki. It's still a work in progress. :c
