If a wipe is in fact decided upon once velious has been flogged to death, i would suggest a way of retaining some of the player base may be to allow them to keep a lvl 50 character (or maybe even a lvl 30 character or something?) or something once the wipe occurs. There really needs to be some incentive.
yes, it would unbalance the game to hell once the wipe occurs, but at least all of those players (us) who are getting wiped have a better chance of staying.
From what i can see, if the wipe occurs noone is going to want to reroll and do it again. They will already have had their nice trip down memory lane and wont be feeling so masochistic a second time around.
