Solution to Legacy Players Transferring to Non-Legacy Servers

[Minigae]

What I dislike most about this argument and legacy players is they refuse to accept that people want to play on a new server just for the game to be NEW. Not a single legacy player could tell me truthfully if they had no 1.0 character and was starting new they would choose to play on a legacy server without lying through their teeth. Hell as you can see I am level 50 and I chose to play on a new server because for 1.0 players that did not play after the patches ARR is a totally new game.

6 months down the road SE does not need to let legacy players xfer to new servers they just need to remove the tags from the servers altogether. But new players and 1.0 players on new server deserve at least 6 months of a NEW game to themselves before throwing 1.0 players into the mix. And yes even for new servers xfers need an item/gil limit because 1.0 was just full of bots and ARR will be too if SE lets them run rampant like they did in both FFXI and 1.0. Has nothing to do with legacy players or any kind of hate people have for them it just isn't a new game when people are already 50 on your server getting crap done first is what motivates a lot of people to play a new MMO. Gives us a chance to establish guilds and get in on the ground floor because if you have played a MMO much at all you know you are never treated quite the same in a guild unless you are a founding member no matter how well you play.

And 1 million gil? More like 1 billion this character has a million gil and I only played 1.0 for a little over a month when it was actually hard to make money and level. And again do not forget about the bots they have enough money to manipulate the economy on a legacy server much less on a new one.

It's not a "Legacy Player" issue, it's a "version 1.0 character" issue. And we already have several solutions already considered and chosen by Yoshi-P:
　• Legacy (v1) players can create new characters on new worlds.
　• New players can create their new characters on Legacy worlds.
　• Legacy (v1) characters cannot transfer to new worlds until months after launch.

The only "problem" is if new player friends don't want to create their characters on a Legacy world, but that's really just an issue between individuals and has nothing to do with this game.

What I dislike most about this argument and legacy players is they refuse to accept that people want to play on a new server just for the game to be NEW.

Exactly. As a Legacy player, I thought about the reasons I wanted to bring my v1 character to a new world. (I have gil! I have levels! I have things are not available to new ARR characters! etc.) All of them are equally valid reasons why a new ARR player would not want such a character on his/her new world.
