I've regarded it like male miqo'te and female roegadyn/highlanders existed all along, but prior to ARR none happened to be more than just a passing acquaintance. Â I don't really RP like they all just started popping out of the woodwork all of the sudden. Â I figure they've been on the streets in the marketplace, out adventuring, and all that other good stuff all along.
I see nothing wrong with this, and to address the poll itself I'm not rebooting 2-3 years of RP experience, effort, emotion, etc. for the sake of something like that.
As a point of note, S-E has also said that all of 1.0 is supposed to have taken place during the year 1572 (even though there were over 2 years of playtime), and all of ARR will take place 5 years later, within one year time, so there's not really regarded any passage of time.  I think the devs regarded it as being like The Simpsons, how Bart never ages even though the show's gone on for years and years.  For the sake of keeping things real I - and several others I know - overlook this detail as well.  I'll accept that there's more male miqo'te now than there were five years ago ICly, but none at all back then?  No, I don't think so.  Not for me, anyway. I think there comes a certain point where looking too far into the lore results in one's own character proverbially shooting herself in the foot, and I'd rather not cross that line, for myself.
