I loved how negotiable everything was, how organic the relationships were. For example, in the case of dealing with PKers. You could go out and band together to just outright kill the PK--which was dangerous because if you accidentally hit someone else, you would then turn yellow(neutral) and then red (pk) if you hit them to many times. Alternatively, you could gather a posse, corner a PK and "arrest" them (an informal arrangement). You would negotiate the arrest, and escort that person back to the jail. The PKs friends would then organize a rescue attempt on the way, often resulting in a pitched battle on the jailhouse steps. Good times.
