Looking for some real action? Would it not be nice if there was dm sanctioned tournaments held routinely since there is almost always a dm on at peak hours who can spare an hour or 2 to give all players on one of the servers <up to 34-35 possible participants in an event> who want to pvp a chance to show off their talents in the arena and keep public record of the legendary winners, you could even do team battles in larger areas with a dm to rez the fallen and make sure they leave said area...
I think it would bring a lot more players together and even possibly give some newer players chances to earn respect from veteran players and possibly open doors for their possible admission into a made guild. I believe more players than a few would even stop to watch a Battle of the Titans in the arena if a shout came across to meet in the arena and it was matched up to players as even as possible ie: a level 10 character should not face a level 40, and there should be certain restrictions set, like no healing during the match and buffing not allowed until the start of the match.
People would probally build characters just to take certain level range championships which means even more building and more reasons for new characters, it would also help explore lots of tactics which some players either have never seen or thought of and help them see hands on usage of the skills of experienced players. I used to watch and participate in old aw poa tournys like this and they were very fun both to watch and fight in and they did not take a lot of planning and were not very long. Make a forums topic where the dm who hosts one of these Battles can post prudent information about the skills of the heros who participated, i would say other than notoriety of your triumphs the winners should either recieve a trophy which i know exists in the mod or some kind of gold payout <nothing ridiculous which is why i didnt suggest a ur or anything>.
Could add a board at the entrance to the arena showing the names of reigning champions and/or upcoming public challenges. This idea is not original but i believe hg and its dm's could definately make it very fun. It is not something i feel requires you to be in a guild but could promote guild membership and/or recruiting purposes for guilds.. ie: prove yourself in the arena. Anyhow just wanted to post it to see what others thought about it especially the dm's.
