When the timeline runs out they will cross that bridge when they get to it.

This is like saying "We won't make buildings to be resistant to Earthquakes, we'll just let them happen and then figure out what to do about the mess."
Let's demonize someone who has FORESIGHT! I'm trying to address problems so they can be fixed.

As far as people starting recently not getting the day 1 experience, well that sucks for them, the servers goal isn't to recreate classic for each and every person, or any specific person. It's to have a server that follows the original timeline as closely as possible and people can come and go as they please. It's not a difficult concept.

I'm not sure you understand the concept of "time". It actually IS a far more complex concept than you are trying to make it out to be. Time is entirely affected by viewpoint. With this server "following the timeline", it means something completely different depending on when you start. Eventually that timeline will run out as well and then the server will no longer be "following the original timeline." You would have to restart the server over from the very beginning or else it would automatically be deviating from its "intended" purpose; I sure hope they have a ton of backup files saved!
Although that's actually kind of an interesting notion, as it would mirror the constantly expanding+contracting, cyclical theory of the universe. Wheeee!
