For all legal intents, purposes, and documentation let it be known that I, Ramien123, hereby declare my love for a PvP enabled server where PvP is active at all times. I have in no way been forced to post this, as I have always shown my love for being decimated whenever I step outside my realm and losing all of my hard earned materials in the process, because it adds depth to the game and will make it a more fun expirience for everyone.
PvP is a rich tradition in our community, from the amazing days of 2.0. I remember fondly all the heartfelt and logical, rational discussions that people who partook willingly(or unwillingly) in the amazing thing known as PvP. they would rage on for hours about who killed who, who cheated, etc, and would entertain and add to the rich flavor of the commuity. The amount of times that I noticed someone stalking me in the wilderness prompting me to log out and stop playing for hours on end to avoid being killed, well, I just look back at them and smile.
This is only the surface, the economic, social, and political applications of PvP are endless! There is literally no end to the amount of fun we could have if this glorious system was enabled!
In conclusion, I love PvP and hope it is put back into the game.
It is good that people on this server feel free to express their opinions without worrying about whether they are unpopular or not.
Hold on, a change as I was writing this:

This is quite obviously an opinion change brought about in an entirely non coercive manner.
EDIT:
And the coercion, I mean, rational opinion changes continue as Kre...Ramien rewrites his post. I'm saving it here for posterity.

Killthlight, my mentor, once said Pvp was the greatest thing about Minerealm in 2.0.
Rationally, I remember not liking it very much, and many people agreed with me on the matter.
Everyone I talked to, hung out with, and in general met liked 3.0 having no PvP.
Sometime along the road however, I realized that I was wrong in my belief, and wish to change it.
Simply put, I wish that PvP would be re-added to the server as soon as possible.
Intersting battles, strategy, skirmishes in the wilderness, and bandit lords would add depth to the server.
Subway bandits would add adventure to even the monotonous nature of commuting to work.
Maybe these seem like trivial reasons, but there are many more that I have not touched on yet.
At the top of these reasons is the Economic Boon that PvP will bring to the servers population.
Killthelight was very poor, until he killed a rich miner whose inventory of ore started an empire.
In the same way as Killthelight turned his Minelife around, so too could PvP for the new playes of 3.0.
Nobody really understood why the PvP feature was taken out in the first place, but didn't argue.
Grateful to Intelli for providing an amazing server, everyone tried out the no Pvp, and here is the result...
Many people have become bored with the current state of things in Minerealm's current incarnation.
Especially those who enjoyed PvP in 2.0, and those who just enjoyed a real survival challenge.
Don't count my argument out yet, because I am only about halfway done with it, ok?
Other then the economic implications, there would once again be the possibility of Total Wat.
Terra Celestis and Terrranobyl got into a war at the end of 2.0, and everyone had fun, even me.
Happy, fun times were had in times of war on Minerealm, and these are what I really miss.
Intelli, I bbeg that you listen to what this post really means, to me, the server, and the community.
So thanks, thanks for listening.
