Supposed to be a cleaner raid environment, not a chance for people to monopolize content like the current server.
Pretty much this. A fresh server would just continue to perpetuate the cycle we're trying to break. People want to experience the endgame, don't make them abandon their hard work to do it.

Also to the guy that was screaming about fat and happy farmers (Donal breastplates) TMO/IB killed probably something like 400 trakanons combined before Zeelot blew TMO up. To date BDA has probably killed Trak maybe a couple dozen times and never seen a cleric BP drop. The people that ave farmed the game into oblivion aren't the casual players.

I'd donate and play on new server if movelog was incorporated. Maybe I'm selfish, but I don't have the desire to do everything over on my character again.

The idea to split the server into casual/hardcore or rotation/FFA wouldn't be a "split". A huge portion of the server would move -- including those who currently aren't in raiding guilds.

We'd end up with the current box being low pop (except during repops) and the new box would eventually have 327 raiding guilds rotating and seeing VS once per generation. Velious' eminent release somewhat alleviates this concern as there are some mobs that the 20 casual raiding guilds yet to be formed wouldn't have the chops to kill anytime in the foreseeable future, but there would still be a problem unless there was some sort of qualification or restriction as to who could move.

If there is a problem that needs to be solved, I think it should focus on giving casual raiding guilds more opportunity at Kunark mobs once Velious comes out. That opportunity should include some forced competition between the "R" guilds and it should come at a price that restricts a significant amount of Velious content as "incentive" to get a couple (literally) of the "R" guilds to move on from Kunark content and start competing in Velious.

Couple of months ago I tried to drum up donations to help with the release of Velious, which would help everyone on the server: almost universal hatred for the idea

Chest makes a thread about creating an entire server dedicated to a dozen or so guilds: almost universal support

I don't understand you people

Well there's speculation about what'll happen with Teams after it launches. It's always been stated that they'll merge red into teams (later on) or merge teams into red if it's not a success.

What would happen to that extra server I wonder? Might be the same server as Velious beta if we're honest. But long term it shouldn't be wasted [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
You have a good point about a wasted server. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

must be a TMO member if you think you can dictate how other people enjoy their time on this server

That would be even better! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Some people actually enjoyed playing EQ past Luclin.
