I picked a server back in 02/05 that sucked for me. I picked a new server in 05/05 that was better. My interests outgrew my old server though- what I really wanted simply wasn't going to happen there because the server couldn't support it. So I made the leap 08/07 and rerolled on a new server. I rolled the same two classes (Mage/Priest) I always played on my old server because- like you- I really enjoy them. It was the right decision for me and I really am much happier on my new server in my new guild than I was before. I've got opportunities and options I didn't have before and it made me enjoy the game more.

To get back to what the poster you quoted asked though, did you have connections?
I've been reading a lot about guilds doing successful rerolls, seen a few personal examples in this thread as well, but what's not immediately made clear is how many of those folks had connections on their new server helping them out. When I look more into the subject, it seems a good number actually did. If you really started over fresh, with nothing more than the hope of finding a better gaming experience on your new server I'm all ears.
The latter is the situation I'm stuck in now. I've spent almost four years on one server, and it just doesn't have the playerbase to do what I enjoy in this game. Looking around all the guilds out there, there aren't many. My only hope now is a long-shot: rerolling on a server where I'll know nobody in hopes of when the expansion hits I'll have a shot with the clean slate to get in with one of these guilds.
