No as you mentioned before you can box blue and green. We wouldn't really know how many people prefer to play on which server unless that wasn't possible.
And I also didn't suggest "deleting" blue and green. They would be combined into a museum server with no raid mobs and no quests. You could still log your chracters in, farm loot from non-raid mobs, tunnel quest, whatever. It would just encourage people to maybe reroll. Your p99 blue character doesn't exist in a vaccume, it could be deleted tomorrow if the project becomes financially or personally too much of a burden for the owners and we shouldn't forget that.
This way all those characters would still exist, they'd be rolled into the museum, and the progression ("green") server would become the primary server, because classic everquest is the primary goal of the project. A perpetually frozen end-stage velious is hardly classic. A repeating classic era progression server like a diablo 2 ladder is much more in tune with what most people are here to play for.
