Gameplay Disadvantages of exported characters:
While it is true that some players have leveled several jobs to high levels not all players have. In addition, the legacy system does not cover those characters. The player transfer system and final save on Nov 1st 2012 handled that. All characters regardless of level, server, gear, legacy status or otherwise have been saved and will be available in Phase 3, Phase 4 and final release of the game. Those characters will be restricted to the older servers from 1.x of the game as well.
This however, has no direct effect on the quality of RP within the server. Only earlier access to end game events, to which not all RPers are interested. Those that are interested however, have already put significant time and effort in preparation for the relaunch. Yes, some of these players will have a temporary advantage over a new player starting out. However, time is a great equalizer. Content will not be added every day or week. We will more then likely not even see new content every month or two. End game will be accessed by those dedicated towards getting there as well as those who are already there.
Short and sweet answer: The time it would take a new player to get to end game on either server would be the same if not easier with players helping out that are already high up. Not everyone levels at the same rate.
I'd like to add that I support the idea of a subform for a non legacy RP server should SE choose to name one as such. For the time being, I recommend adding one without the server name pending an answer from the company response. The current mods can govern it just fine. However I would strongly urge those who request this form to still interact with the community as a whole during this time. Get to know us. Interact with us. Participate in discussions without throwing the "Elitism" phrase around because most of us are not like that. We have discussions on the RP section. We have Art topics. Some people have RP'd together. Some have not. Some are friends despite disliking each other IC. We have a vibrant and diverse community that is accepting of all. Experienced and novice alike. We even have had a mentorship program appear as a result of this topic which is wonderful I feel.
