To the people against this, I ask you: where will the large influx of new players needed to make this server "alive" ever come from? We can put in fixes to maintain or slightly bolster the server pop, and thankfully the staff has done just that (thanks!). But if we ever hope to be more than just barely surviving, we need a big influx. I see no other way to ever make that happen.

The problem with transfers vs copies is that it requires people to commit to something they haven't tried. You need to let people test drive the car before you force them to sign the bill of sale.

Giving people free level 60s isn't going to keep them here. Without any time investment there is no attachment at all. And do you really want people who are just on R99 for the free character?

If it was a one way transfer with no gear at least only the people who are truly willing to give it a shot would come.

Or in reality, the server scum and villains who've used up all their chances on blue will be able to have a fresh start. We'd become a penal colony, but at least we'd have people.
