So... green is basically what blue was at first launch? A restart so to speak of classic>kunark>velious. Or am I wrong no one really answered my question lol

Yes and no. You have to keep in mind that Blue has always been a sort of beta server, and when it launched it had TONS of bugs relative to today. For instance mobs didn't exist, or were in the wrong places, or dropped the wrong loot. I didn't play back then so I don't know the details, but there were the most bugs and missing content at the project's beginning.

In contrast Green will not be a beta server. This whole time the devs have been using everything they've learned from Blue, and kept every fix they've made, so that when Green is released it will function as close as absolutely possible to how live functioned. Plus since they won't have to develop anything new they can release each patch along the original classic timeline.

TLDR; The launch of both Blue and Green means the start of a fresh timeline, but Blue's launch was like paying for super special alpha access to a MMOG, while Green's launch will be like that of a normal MMOG release (from a competent company).
