No, there will be no non-PK better said non-PvP server as they say. The game is based on siege battles and if there is no PvP there is no siege. Maybe they could make a server where PvP is only activated in these siege battles, but I don't think so.

Don't bet on that. I am sooo hoping that the NA population is much less care bearish then the TW population was... kill a Red Player (means he is a PK'er) and get nothing but private messages for the next 30 minutes of crying and whining and threats... this one guy on the TW server I killed him once for PKing another person and he would not stop threatening me, I had to hunt him and kill him over and over and over again because he was taking away my game time, so that I decided to single him out until he logged off.
I pray for more adults in NA. God... do you hear me?

PK is player killing and almost 99% of a the time, a much higher lvl would start the fight, and almost always a very uneven fight.
PvP to me in the case of L2 is the Castle War.
With the way I see L2, most of the PKing start with the control of a spawn area. A greedy high lvl, or a group of greedy high lvls will fend off (PK) others who hunt in their turf. Most of the time, these high lvls with ask them to leave, and if they dont, they threathen and PK them. Most of the time these lucrative spots can handle more players, but more players means more running and seaching for mobs. My group are usually the bullies. I dont like bullies, but I just kept quiet as my group was a good group.
I dont like the PK system because they are usually used for giving grief and bullying. It is almost never fun for both parties. I like the PvP concept, but I hate the PKing.
Yes, I am a carebear, because almost all PKers have no honor. Btw, I was the top ranking ShadowBlade on the DAoC server that I used to play on some weekly PvP ratings.
Well there's a column on the server select screen with an option for pvp or non-pvp, that's probably kind of a hint. Lineage 1 has a non-PVP server.
Of course guild wars and sieges are still there. Just no random pk'ing. To be honest, there's not much PK in the game anyway because being red is horrendously punative. All these "i'm gonna go red and pk like it was uo in 98 woot woot" posts you see are going to be tomorrow's "this game suxxors it is c@r3b3@r" tomorrow.
