The reference to many people didnt include only those on during prime time. This included all players, How many people do you think will want to continue playing when they just put in lets say 100 hours (nothing in the grand scheme of MMO time but still) to progressing a character and then we decide o a server wipe will make things better! What do you think the chance of these players returning is? Small, to say the least. What do you think the chance of a previously retired player coming back and seeing there characters are all gone returning to the game is? Not that likely either. Point is of the players we have you will lose more by server wiping than it will be worth in a naive attempt to boost player base.
MMOs have people at different stages of the game at all times thats part of what makes them fun there is something to look forward to going to. If you make everyone jump through hoops they already jumped through to get back to the same point well lets just say, Your not going to help the server at all. You might make yourself feel better that you dont have XXXXXXXX number of people that are better geared or more experience but aside from that your not making anything better.
If you get irritated that you are not in the elite group of players there are a few solutions, A) play until you get there, B) Realize its a game for fun and then go have fun, C) Realize MMOs are not the game for you. I have family members that cant stand MMOs because they think they should be able to put in minimum time and be on an equal playing field as those that spend hours progressing there character, They just dont play them because they realize they just dont work for them.
