A fresh server would make for completely different gameplay imo. It would be MUCH harder to level without being able to buy gear. I remember first starting out on EQ release in 1999 and being so happy when I managed to get 1 piece of banded. The game has gotten a lot easier with a saturated market of high-end items. Starting fresh would cut everything back to the stone age where people are trying to level half-naked using rusty weapons. I think it would be fun to go back to hardcore mode...
