AOC Server types

OK so the AOC site has this to say about PVP servers:
PvP (or player-versus-player) servers have more widespread PvP rulesets, encouraging players to fight against each other.
Can someone elaborate on this for me? Last time I heard, Funcom didn't decide on this yet but I am under the impression that the PVP server ruleset is probably going to be FFA PVP.
I am trying to rally all my troops to get ready to start an AoC guild but I don't even know what ruleset to commit to because the details aren't published! We love PVP, but "oh yay 5 random ppl came up and gang banged me" is lame. I bet we will go PVE.
My ideal rule set would be something like this:
Your guild has a reputation standing with other guilds. When your guild ganks other guilds, rep goes down. When your guild groups with other guilds, rep goes up. When your guild rep gets low enough you declare war on that guild and they become KOS.

Looks as if we are tied at 8 for each PvP and PvE. But only 16 votes.
I could be wrong or they could have changed it. But i only saw current options for PVP or PVPRP.
No, there will be PvE also. Any MMO game that didn't have a PvE realm would fail. Simply put a game relying totally on nothing but PvP would not have enough subs to sustain further development.
Yeah, I went over and checked it out since I posted. Does anyone know the differences in each server. What is different on the PVE servers as opposed to the PVP , rule wise.
But I would guess that the PvE realm would have no open pvp and their would be certain zones for pvp.
PvP realms would virtually be all PvP except for beginner zones so newbies are not ganked over and over
PvP is where it's at. PvE is for carebears.
Call PvE players carebears all you like, but for the most part we are the most mature of the two.

I am guessing the same, but we shouldn't have to guess two weeks before release... I am wondering if anyone knows.
I think we're up for PvP only, from what i heard in various interviews and videos. They keep saying you will be able to "accept" or not to go PvP, but that could be interpreted in many ways... may be you refuse it by running away on your war mammoth
From what I understand the pvp servers will be FFA meaning you can kill anyone or be killed by anyone. There will be some "safe areas" such as cities ect. If you don't like getting ganked while your doing quests then you may want to stick to a pve server.

I agree.
I also enjoy PVP, but the mentality of the "typical" hardcore pvp player these days leaves a lot to be desired. Their bad attitute, immature actions and rude behavior makes it not an enjoyable experience.
So still no solid data on this eh?
