Advice for encouraging new people to DAoC

There are several articles dedicated to the concept of F2P and it's supposed effectiveness in drawing in new people. I'm personally skeptical of it, and I don't believe it is the only thing Mythic could do to turn the game around.

So what suggestions can you think of to help reverse the games decline?

I know a lot of people say they would like a fresh server start. I could see that being an interesting idea, but the major problem would be the risk of dividing the population and doing further damage. However, the risk could be minimised with a limited duration server reboot.

Why not open a new server for one month, two months, three months etc, allowing everyone to start from scratch. At the end of the set time, the server closes and characters from that server are transferred to Ywain. The server could have restrictions like limited character slots, one realm, anti-bot coding, etc.

It would also allow mythic the opportunity to play with PVE and RVR without messing with Ywain. Perhaps the new server could use an old frontier, or modify PVE to give it a more classic DAoC feel.

If it proves successful, there is no reason Mythic couldn't do it over and over, using different modifications each time.

Anyway,that's what I thought.Hope it can work for you.
