It would be nice, after returning after many year. I've found it a real chore just trying to play.

Land Claims here, Mass stack piles there...The city size limit increase making it impossible for me to even engage with any notable player after a WHOLE year of building up.

By playing, all I seem to do is irate old players, give them little content.. then they just wipe me out. 

How long do you have to play? or how much IRL money should one commit just to play a little game?

I expect all veterans and old accounts to have massive advantages. But not to the point where they can wipe me out up a Montanan, behind a wall with 100,000's bloody spear units from a single city. Strategy!?!?!

I never thought in the history of me playing this, this would come out. I agree with Rill.

I personally would love to start in a world without the massive surplus of resources that exists on the current server. It was one of the things I was looking forward to about Broken Lands as initially announced. However, other games with more than one server tend to struggle with inactivity on certain servers, and I doubt the Illy community is large enough to sustain another world.

One thing I would enjoy is an Illy classic server without a lot of the innovations like hunting and crafting and the newer buildings. Those are fun, but there is something to be said for the simplicity of one building slot for each building and the crash of troop vs. troop without worrying about equipment or elite divisions.

That would be great.
The only think that makes me worry is about the people.
What if they get separate between these two servers and in the end non of them is active enough?
These are just my concerns.

The idea of opening up a new server has been toyed with already im sure. I think there's a good reason they haven't done it. Still. It would be cool to have one slow one and one faster one. Could also just have Elgea on a new server and see if it needs BL. I think not.

I personally like the one server idea.
I can see your point with the speed but this is something I also love about this game.
Playing through the whole day.

Starting from the bottom does sound quite fun. But if a new server was started, the speed could be changed a bit to something a little bit faster. Maybe 1.5 or 2x faster.
