Ya the only way this would ever fly is if 2 districts where pvp hot.
Also stop and think for a moment all us vector people hanging out in the pvp hot areas and all the syntaxians or recursionites hanging out at mara or tabor west still.
BTW i'm not endorsing this idea though at this time.

Well, the DEVS don't need to have whole districts hostile, but a number of small PVP hot zones could be easily put in place on Syntax or Recursion. (The ones rarebit put in a while ago) They were very popular with the player base.
A pvp hotspot is a very different type of pvp style to a whole district being flagged. I'd rather see a district or two be flagged so we can have long chases through different neighborhoods, with the chance of unexpected interference.

Unlikley that'll happen. There's more a chance a number of hotspots could be replaced in like before though, all vs all PVP, that'll shake thing's up!

OT: keep the servers teh way they are and maybe throw a few pvp hot zones on syn and rec just to test the waters?...like they did with teh paci zones on Vector?!
OffT: DM's are alive and well on all 3 servers, more so atm on Syntax and Vector. .....we didnt 'Leave', we spread our wings....at the time teh Drama on Vector was approaching 'Pee wees playhouse' silly. So we decided to check out recursion....our core grinded up and we built up a nice group there....then it was off to Syntax.....we aer also getting stronger there by the day........
For those factions/ppl that want to take full advantage of our 'world'.....spread your wings.....grind up on all 3....its a blast to be able to go any server, any time and have a team of your faction mates ready to go for PVP, RP or wotever might float our boat!!!

RP and PVP are both alive on Vector, if you know where to look. The only problem we have stems from the majority of our population moving over to Recursion to participate in the
Vector Olympics,er, Recursion Olympics or from the original migration of almost every large faction from Vector to Recursion. Dark Mavericks and Furious Angels were once very prominent groups of Mervs and Zion, respectively, until they opted to leave.Personally, I've had a hard time stumbling across RP on Syntax and not so hard a time finding it on Vector. Unless all of the RP that takes place on Syntax happens through tells, I haven't really seen anything outstanding. If anything, I'm more bored to tears over the lack of anything to do on Syntax. With the exception of one person who has helped me quite a lot, I find that my life on Syntax is spent slow and boring. While running missions, I am flagged in the hopes that I'll stumble across someone who is my level to fight. If I stumble across someone who is much higher and they kill me, so be it. At least it's something... I'l just kill them when I am 50 in carebear land.

As for the topic at hand it would be nice to have a few pvp enabled areas here and there to stir things up a bit, I'd even be cool with whole neighborhoods being lit up. However, vector is hostile for a reason and syntax/recursion are not for a reason, you can't blur the lines too much between the two...

I would love to be able to log onto any server I want and PvP, LE, RP whatever strikes my fancy at the time. Of course i will always be at home on Syntax, but that's not to say i can't have fun elsewhere.RP and PVP are both alive on Vector, if you know where to look.

Hostile or non-Hostile server... 90% of all PVP occurs at Mara C. Basically the only PVP that happens offside Mara C is RP-PVP plus a few rumbles around the Taskmaster every now and then. PVP at Mara C is the same on ALL servers - be they Hostile or not. So... no offence but I think a PVPer's gaming experience is limited to Mara C and its surroundings most of the time which is the typical size of an FPS map. Those people that are so addicted to pointless ganking and perma-PVP should switch to an FPS. In fact most FPS don't cost a thing. The really GOOD PVP (the PVP with story backgrounds) is not limited to Mara C and mostly performed in a reasonable way by the players themselves or a LET member. For those people the current system works fine... the others should *CENSORED* off towards Quake or such a thing.

If you want PvP there is a whole server dedicated to it.
