I've got two other people coming with me and we're all starting fresh (most of us got a job to about level 10 before 1.0's issues led us to quit). We'll go wherever the majority of RPers are, really, and that probably means Balmung.
To be honest, I think the issues with legacy servers won't be that bad. 1.0 had a tiny population that dropped off quickly after launch, then again after subscriptions were implemented. I fully expect that new characters will outnumber old ones for this reason, and because a lot of people will want to see the new storylines.
IMO, it's interesting to see what will happen when the high levels are vastly outnumbered by the low level characters on an existing, established server. That's something one typically doesn't see in MMOs.
