Would it be different if your characters had been wiped. Would you be moaning about your lost time then? I doubt it..a few maybe... But most would suck it up and start again.
I'm sorry but let's face it, if this coalition didn't have new members from the reboot, what would be larger?
The remnants of the legacy players or all the new players banded together on behemoth (since this remains the alternative)
Have you seen anyone say they don't want to be on balmung because they believe the rp to be better elsewhere?
If anything the only thing that isn't a factor for not wanting to start fresh on balmung IS rp. Everything else from a stable economy, players who have completed the content, to server firsts, to established companies to players already at max level influences people's choice of server.
People's issue with a legacy server is specifically that.. It's full of legacy players who haven't been reset from the last game. Nothing against the players themselves, it's the fact they got where they are on mechanics not available now. What may be hard this time was easy for them before and vice Versa. It's not an even playing field and to some... That matters.
