Like I posted in the other forum, you can't really merge or transfer characters from one ruleset to another and be fair about it.

Who cares about fairness? I just want to play EQ the way I did on live. As it stands now, you start out at level 1 with no gear, and have to work your way up to level 50 where you can then be griefed by Nihilum. That's not fair, either, but so what?
If they offered transfers of characters that were deleveled to 20 and were naked, no one from blue would bother coming over. There would really be no point in transfers at all. At a minimum, blue characters should maintain their level. I would want them to have their gear, too, even their VP gear (sorry Nihilum, you would be facing some actual competition). Maybe limit it to one transfer per account/IP, so that they can't bring their several level 60s over and have to choose one character.
How can you be against this idea when red is really dead, as it is? I was on for a while last night, and hardly anyone was talking in ooc. It's more lively in gfay on blue than in serverwide ooc on red. As I said, the blue players show interest in playing red, if they are allowed transfers. Without taking this step, there is really no reason to play red at all unless you're going to raid with Nihilum, and even then it's kind of lonely.
Server transfers are really the only thing that could save this server. Yellow text is a non-issue, and the resist system isn't even
that bad.
