I think it could work in some games, but not this. And players wont keep coming back for more. Maybe, instead, you could have something like limitations on your character after death (e.g: Only able to regain 80% health, and use so many weapons or something) until you do something such as return to where you died to start again from that location. [/EVERQUEST SPIRIT IDEA]

Although I think Maloria did something like this, die and become a ghost, then you had to be respawned somewhere - it's not a bad idea and a lot more desireable than permadeath.

If you are doing what you are doing, then it could be a really good server possibly, with lots of appeal, it would be a shame to just annoy everyone and make them not want to play again.

Another alternative would be maybe you lose some weapons/items/health/money from quests you have done, and you have to re-do a certain amount of quests again.

In other words, anything but permadeath!
