The servers only going to have a few hundred people, we shouldn't be in the business of hardcoing splitting up/isolating the playerbase.

Ya server will not have the population for languages or race splitting. If you nerd wawnt to role play go back to blue.

Interesting but pointless. The prepared will be on vent And for the rest it will be an inconvenience that will just add to the pvp frustration. Besides the game is about socializing..to make thaincludedt difficult in game is dumb. Its just not a well thought out part of eq. Thid is really a, bad idea.

If you want a healthy server you've got to support starting cities and provide the means for new blood to learn the game. This rule set could very well do that and more.
Starting out, players would be encouraged to socialize with the other players of the city (who are already there to bank, sell, train and trade) and new characters of the low level grounds in order to discover allies and better their odds in the world.
Over time those players will encounter other players that wish to group and by hunting with them the language barrier lessens and you continue to communicate with even more players.

Cool bookmark bro. Did you know you were playing a D&D based game?

This doesn't split races, it merely provides an atmosphere for new players to familiarize themselves to the game without being 100% chop liver. You can still run your happy ass over to crushbone and join groups.

as i've said before.. to get players to socialize and make new friends at the begining, just have pre-made guilds that they are a part of. make starting cities/races whatever have a guild you are automatically enrolled in upon character creation.

if someone wants to leave the newb guild to fight them or join his friends, then he just leaves. that's it though, no going back. becuse the newb guild would have no officers/leader (other than maybe a GM could put you back)

Sorry bra I just don't see how limiting who you can talk to encourages socializing, especially if server pop isn't really high. If some "new blood" joins the server I think they could learn a lot more if he was able to talk to more people.. I think you live a bluebie fantasy land

all bad ideas by OP.
