If a new blue server went up today, there wouldn't be an old blue server... the urge for everyone to start fresh with no inflation, no twinks, no BS, etc. It was all part of the allure of old EQ.
I remember server hopping as new ones came up.
Prexus > Lanys > Luclin > Tholuxe...
By the time the EU servers went up (ended up on Venril Sathir as there was no movelog and Ubisoft was running it) I'd pretty much mastered the "day 1" thing and held a monopoly on SoW potions in the bazaar for a few days.
If any of us rolled up on P1999 for the first time today and had the option between a 3-4 year old server and a month old server... where would we play?
