I'm trying to understand why the very people who want to move to a new server because (as I understand it) they don't want to waste their effort competing against an already established economy and/or endgame community, would then turn around and ask everyone else to throw away all the effort they put into their character and start over again.
I've seen this several times now, and it makes less sense every time.

I think you answered your very own question there. The fact of the matter is, we're not asking anyone to do anything really.. it's us who are being asked to join a specific server instead of establishing ourselves in a new world.Â
Depending on what side of the argument you're sitting on, you can use either train of thought to defend yourself.. It's sort of why I kicked my own statement in my post following about not totally being serious. The chances of talking my group of friends into joining a legacy server has about a 99% failure rate. If we begin to talk numbers (and this is me assuming again, I know I really shouldn't) won't the influx of people be the majority over the established group that has been here for a while? If you really did want to see the RP community flourish wouldn't you do anything in your power to see it grow in the best way possible?Â
The real shame would be if there was no official non-legacy server announced by Yoshi and as such, the non-legacy server wouldn't be totally backed by this established community and the two communities would therefore be split down the middle.
