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.

Your museum idea is the same as deleting the server. It is basically just an expensive Magelo page

It sounds like you seem to believe something like 600 players are boxing Green/Blue. If that is the case, we are in serious trouble as a community, as it means we have been bleeding players left and right.
You also seem to think there aren't hundreds of players who no longer want to re-roll on Green. They must be taken into account too, as they will not re-roll again.
Realistically speaking the boxing count is probably somewhere around 100-200 players at best. It is not easy to play two games at once on two different servers, you can't even duo those two characters together. For most people you can really only AFK camp while boxing Green and Blue, or raid on both because most of raiding is waiting around.
