A copy is just a free character. Everyone will do it because there is no downside. Even if you never log it in you might as well. Same reason I have like 5 max level characters in TERA and EQ2...they gave them away so I took the 10 seconds to login and create them.
You might see a higher population but it will completely lack substance. That number is meaningless if it isn't people competing and putting effort into the server. I could run around the office and install EQ on every computer and create a level 1. Boom, +50 population...but meaningless just like this would be.
