City destruction DID have a role to play in pop troubles, although to be fair it was heavily compounded by bugs/glitches.

This was typical on most SB servers: One empire dominates, everyone gets raped, people can't build a city and get fedup/quit, dominating empire gets bored and quits.

The problem with the game is it did little to ensure a balance of power. The Death server used to have a pretty excellent balance of power that was eventually undone by bugs, glitches, and exploits. The server population literally dropped from a few thousand to less then a hundred in the matter of 2-3 weeks.
