Anyone who is playing the game right now bought the game.

Also (aside from servers being full currently) there's nothing stopping new players from playing on legacy servers. They won't allow legacy players to play on new servers any time soon, because it's a major deal breaker for a lot of new players. Later down the road (as in way, way later) who knows, but for now all you can do is hope that they open up more slots on the legacy servers.
