Was thinking about this just now and how ridiculous the lack of a catchup mechanic is. It's not classic for players to have millions of platinum because they have been hard stuck in Velious for 15 years. Game would be much healthier if it had a hard reset once every 5 years.
1 year classic, 2 years kunark, 3 years velious, server wipe, starts over in classic etc. This could obviously have problems too, so ideally you would have two separate servers on different timelines. Because how many people are going to start playing on a server that's about to wipe in 6 months? But it would be less of an issue if the alternative server was just getting ready to enter Velious.
