As the customers responsible for keeping the initial release of Final Fantasy XIV alive, I believe that we simply deserve priority in terms of log ins. We have waited for quite some time to adventure in this new Eorzea and now we can't. As Square Enix's most vocal customers, I believe that if a new player is in the log in que and a Legacy player enters it as well then the Legacy player gets to move ahead of them. Think of it as a Speed Pass at an amusement park.
