What do you like in a PK Server?

So, I'm currently in the process of creating a PK server, but we want to go with a more unique approach. I figured it would only make sense to ask you guys what you want.

Any detailed response will get repped :)

By the way, leave out obvious things like close to perfect combat. Try and get creative.

I guess a few basic questions.

Do you like having skilling on PK servers, or does it take too much away from the PvP Aspect?

What donator benefits do you like on PKing Servers?

Do you prefer Semi-Spawn PKing or Complete Spawn?

What unique ideas do you have/have you seen implemented?

And just any general thoughts you may have. I will probably add some of the ideas I'm thinking after I get a few responses.

i like pking servers that have skilling in them maybe for rewards/comp cape (and places in wild you can skill)
extra pkp really thats all
eco/spawn
like 317/474 pk servers with unique items like vesta statius claws korasi ect..
and bosses in deep wild
:D

Already discussed some stuff on Skype.

Skilling is an option on a PVP server, don't see how it'd take away from the PVP aspect. Aside from the fact, you'll get some of the community that just skill only. Add areas in the wilderness for skillers, where they can make money off people that buy useful PK supplies. A max cape can make skilling useful, as you'll want good bonuses.

Donator benefits without getting to into detail is when it doesn't involve a shop with overpowered items, perhaps cosmetics I guess? But more going towards abilities, one example could be having an ability tier system for people that would rather spend 2 bucks on a low tier, than 7 on a high: When you die you got to run back to get the untradeables which despawn in a minute, tier one can boost the timer to 3 minutes (Risk of people blocking the untradeables), tier 2 protects 1 - 2 untradeable items out of how many you may have, tier 3 could protect more than 1 - 2.

Semi-spawn pk, full spawn servers get boring through time. I know Matrix had so if you voted every 24 hour hours you can use some overpowered items, but still required donator to wear some. Which would get boring, considering you're PKing without any satisfaction of a nice kill.

Add the spawn preset interface that has been on quite a few servers already, no one likes having to spawn a bunch of items (At least I do). A prespawned bank doesn't cut it these days either, considering the custom preset interface is by far the best. An example of what I mean: [Only registered and activated users can see links.

What donator benefits do you like on PKing Servers?
Don't add awful shit like overloads only for donators.
Best to have ags, claws donator obtained, but tradeable.

Do you prefer Semi-Spawn PKing or Complete Spawn?
Semi is better, i prefer the ones where all welfare items are free + whip and d bow.
Everything else costs pkp, there for you have a good eco.

What I want to try and do is make skilling have a super close relation with PvP or getting PvP items. For example. I'd still have Cerberus. But I thought it'd be cool if at 85 mining, if you had a dragon pick axe, you had a 1/100 chance of getting a smoldering stone. You then use a bucket of water on it and you'll get one of the crystals. Primordial, Pegsdian or whatever the other is. I know it's different from Runescape, but RSPS is meant to be different :)

a PK server should be semi-spawn, if everything is spawnable it's not fun and what i personally like best is becoming the best on that server.
Skilling should be apart of the server, it'll just attract both types of players. Pking over for weeks and months will for sure get boring, and once you're highly ranked in pking you want to move on to something else.
Here are some features that should be included:
1. perfected combat
2. flawless switching
3. correct vengeance timer
4. correct pvp zones
5. spawn loadouts
6. very efficient and well priced pvp shop
7. custom content to make things unique
8. correct specials
9. 600+ items
What you could also do is make two worlds, one semi-spawn pk and the other spawn restricted economy.
Hope i helped. :) goodluck to your server.

skilling ruins pk servers, look at os scape to those that offer the same but have skilling, & os scape still has bosses it still comes out on top.

isn't this an old topic?

but I like when kids can't pk

Really doesn't have to do with anything, it's all about advertising.

with too much stuff to do on a pk server no one will pk. unless you've got a very large playerbase.
