I think your experience is with the wrong types of players. People from the VZTZ crowd want to jump from server to server, proclaiming box dominance after they've leveled to 50 in less than a week, or proclaiming GM bias/hacks/etc. when things don't go their way until the server fails. They want a wipe because eq is funnest to them when they've just started on a new server. But what about people who wouldn't come back because their character gets deleted? I don't just speak for myself, many people wouldn't come back. That's too big of a risk to take for some uncertain benefit of players liking fresh starts.

Weigh how many players wouldn't come back vs how many players would come back
Willing to bet the latter is far greater than the former. Too big of a risk to take? On a server where 26 are online currently and hundreds (thousands?) have quit for various reasons? I'd say we can afford to take some risks.
