Let me start off first by saying that in my opinion Mayong hurt EQ’s other existing servers more then helped the game increase the existing population.
Being server populations are down, at least on Zek. That I rarely see NEW created toons start up low level or are power leveled so fast up that on a good weekend a brand new toon can easily achieve level 50+.
Here is the idea of the new server, would add an interesting twist.
Make a server that starts out at level 1 and goes to level 50. After a player achieves level 50 he then has to transfer to another server. The interesting part comes in with other servers and guilds enticing them to come over to their side. Sort of like a minor league camp and the pro teams trying to recruit them to their team.
The concept I am trying to create is new players having a huge population base to help group, quest and learn team play without having to beg and hope for a group.
And the interaction of cross server advertisements and player-recruiters enticing them to join their team on another server with plat, items or what ever, just adding another aspect to the game.
Rules would be as follow,
1) Blue server rules.
2) No transfers in from other servers,
3) You have to start a new toon on the Server. Transfer out to any other server, FREE at level 50. Exception would be Mayong & Test no transfer allowed.
4) You would be able to bring with you all your plat and items achieved
5) Transfer before level 50 and would have to pay for transfer.
It would be like a rookie camp.
Would like to hear if it would work? Negatives? Positives? And a name for the server?
Just an idea…but would start everyone off equal. And no one would have that big of advantage having to leave at 50….can even have big going away parties….lol

Idea for new server?Follow
Come visit my housing creations 20+ in Cedar Country Meadows, ZEK.
I very much like the idea of a server for low level characters. The number of people playing pre-level 50 is so low it would be nice to see 'em concentrated in one place. You could also make the same case for levels 50 to 70 too.
The main problem I would imagine is that the number of true "new" players must be pretty close to zero. Returning players, and players rolling twinked alts - I think that's mostly what you see in the under level 50 crowd.
I hear SOE just released a facebook game. I think they have other priorities than making EQ1 better.

IMO, they need to just make a new blue server(like Stromm). NO transfers to or from for a minimum of 1 year. That way newbs will flock to it, so everyone would be a newb in one form or another.
Another idea for servers is to: Have a mass sever merger....take all the "merged" servers to date, and have everyone fill out a poll of which server they would like to goto...(or give a list of new servers that would be their new home after they choose to merge from their old server).
...Or.....just leave things the way they are: why does everyone think change is always better...just because it's something new or different?
