Just look at the Server populations and you can see the answer. We have had plenty of time to see a complete decay of Blue if it was going to happen.

If you were correct, and most players wanted to play on Green exclusively, the population on Blue would probably be around 200-300. It would consist of the hard core raiders who want double the raid targets, and the people who like boxing on Blue/Green.

Instead, you see a fairly even population split, indicating a lot of players like their Blue characters more than the idea of re-rolling. I can guarantee you a lot of players on Green have become attached to their characters in the same way. Now that people have their manastones, beads, warder loot, etc., they want to PLAY with those items.

Unfortunately EQ just takes too long to progress, and in the years that go by between servers, people become more or less busy. Some people could play 12 hours a day on Green for two years, and then they have a wife and kids, and they can't do it anymore. If they want to play a little bit for nostalgia, fun, etc., they can hop on their OP character and have some fun. It isn't like Diablo 2 where you can get into Hell difficulty in a day or two, and already start farming end game loot.
