You guys are all leaving out statloss if you died as a red. That was a serious deterrant. It wasn't easy to get back the skill points you lost, especially if you were 5 or 6X GM. You'd lose days of grind time if you were red status and got killed......it really did suck. This is one reason all the reds always ran together in huge gangs. Also the bounty system, I remember there were some guys on my server ( Alice Cooper ), if you could get his head to turn in for the bounty you would be a VERY rich man for doing so.
UO was the grief fest everyone made it out to be, I found it to be rather balanced and will always miss it.
