Wake up. New server will shut down the old one...who'd start on the old server when the value of their plat on the new one goes a lot further?
You couldn't merge the old server into the new one, as there'd be massive inflation etc etc.

Well, then you and the other 100 people left who took full advantage of every non-classic feature and mechanic, sold accounts, boxed, etc, who don't want to start over can sit around and masturbate each other with your dozen funghi tunics and epiced level 15 alts.
This server is inflated as fuck for two primary reasons....Non classic features and mechanics being available for so long, primarily during classic, along with account selling being allowed for so long, and kunark being out for so long. I started here a year before kunark came out and once the nostalgia wore off I quit. Not because I wasn't having fun, but because it wasn't anything remotely like classic EQ. Once you got past level 25 there was barely a zone you could go into without having to deal with teams of perma charming farmers cherry picking everything that can drop loot. It was lame as shit. Sorry that you decided to invest all of your time and energy into something that was clearly a project in ongoing development.
If you view this server as anything other than a beta for the real server that will eventually come, then I don't know what to say. I realized that the first day I played here. And I could give two shits about your toons or your epic that you got using non classic mechanics in non classic conditions. Your argument, essentially, is "never open a new server because I have want I want here and need other people, who will have to work harder and longer for the same things, to entertain me." I love my toons here. We all do. I play too much as it is, and will continue to. I still carry the PKT that I scored on my druid during classic and consider it one of my great EQ scores, for the time period, and doing that again on a new server will be TONS harder with track being nerfed back to classic. Bigger fish to fry. I'll be on the new server day one with bells on. And, probably, the new pvp server before that too. And I can't wait for both. And I'm far from alone.
Sorry, but I and a lot of other people play this game for the experience of playing EQ, not having more shit than other people.
