Why so few RPG servers?

[[email protected] 19]

There's tons of talk about KoS and PvP issues, but barely any private servers / admins who do something about it, like special PvP rules or custom versions of DayZ.

Why is that?

I've only seen the server RP 1 and some french server. There's also some official servers tagged as "RPG" or "COOP", but the KoS problems are almost worse there...

Well if they are connected to the official Hive, then they have to follow specific guide lines or they can be separated from the hive. One of which I believe is do not screw with the game using arbitrary rules that are not enforced by actual mechanics. (Take this with a grain of salt because I'm not 100% exactly what the rules are.)

As for people that have their own hive system...as far as I know, nothing is stopping them.
