People are bitching about having to skill.  This problem is easily solvable.  Merge skilling with PVP.  Make PVP open world like it was in early 2001.  Deadman mode all the time, but without the ridiculous "kill the most NPCs for a party hat prize".  Just keep it open world pvp for the  of it.

Biggest adrenaline rush I've ever had playing a game.  It was so goddam fun Andrew  Gower had to make the wildy because people were freaking out due to the PVP nature of it.  It was far better than the wildy.  Everyone here loves to pk so why isn't this an option?

What you're describing is basically dead man mode. We've always done this seasonally on rev1. It wouldn't surprise me if it made an appearance here. Deadman mode is very much Kleios baby.

id love to see deadman be a permanent mode, no level restrictions, no prizes, just let it simply exist 24/7

Yeah 2001 rs had full pvp but it was only +-5 levels from you, and you had to opt into being a player killer or a skiller, and you could only toggle back and forth 3x afaik. was super good
