The initial rush of launch is always fun. Usually all your friends come back for a couple weeks and you get a bit excited to play again. Lot of people fall off by Velious.
And then theres the krono farmers who just server hop to mass farm.

seeing alot of chatter on mischief about a Golden Rapiers & EQ Baby combo guild lead by Keon, hicks and atabishi for tlp 2022. At first i thought it was just trolling but its been talked about for a few weeks now... i would come to the new tlp just for the popcorn if this is real, any truth to this? i thought atabishi quit EQ to go beat up more navy seals?

Please rethink this new TLP Daybreak Team... | EverQuest Forums
Rumors were flying on Twitch last night. So I just want to say this here in advance... If you announce a Gates of Discord start TLP, the forums are...

I don't really get it. This seems like a good opportunity to try something weird and different.

Selo starting at Luclin was perfection, because Luclin had AA's. AA's are an infinite form of progression, so you could play as much as you wanted and always have something to do without having to jump on the alt-creation-treadmill.
You start out any further than that & you cheapen or fully skip a lot of nostalgic content. Classic items still were useful leveling up and you were still level 60, so not all the Kunark/Velious stuff was completely trivialized.
Mischief loot/free trade + Selo-Luclin start/XP/unlocks + 50% raid lockout timers.

Luclin start would be good, like you said with AAs its definitely got something to keep us going for the lull between everyone farming vox/naggy and Kunark opening that bleeds quite a bit of players.
Paludal leveling would accelerate the start by a lot, would be weird going back and getting epics in Luclin though. That means we still have to do shit in Kunark and velious is just too easy to let live for the loot, theres also primals that would be a race to get from the start. Who will prioritize what?
Definitely would have a shit load of content to swallow at once but it might just be the right move. If anyone was going to plow through the LDON/LOY/GOD gap it would have to start at least in luclin.

GoD launch would just have to be thought of as "end game" to even start in the zones there, but no EQ player thinks like that. They'd all want to be farming shit in there the second they hit 65, even with 5khp and 700ac. I think it COULD work, but the playerbase doesn't have the mindset to make it work.

A Gates of Discord start now would be pretty bad. If anyone wants some GoD action we've got two TLPs at LDoN. Hop in and get going. Launching a GoD start server as existing TLPs are in that expansion would be bizarre. Doing something like this as part of a Selo-style event server (Fall launch) might do alright. Set a couple goals with little prizes for the guilds and individuals that achieve them. Titles, cosmetics, exp pots, etc. Nothing crazy but little trinkets for people to squabble over.

If they are going to start past Luclin then OoW would make far more sense.

GoD is pretty damn good as an expansion, but a GoD start doesn't make much sense. If they're going to do a late-start TLP and have it be a new experience for most people, it should really be TSS. That's the start of the modern game, and the only expac post-Luclin to have content for all levels. Give it FV rules or something so people give it a shot, and I think it'd pleasantly surprise a ton of people.
I'm still hoping for a regular server and an event server. A Kerafyrm server with a Kunark start / Velious end and a goal of coming together to actually kill the Sleeper for the 2nd time ever would be a fun addition. It'd probably draw in a lot of the hardcore competitors. Might severely hamper the TSS server's population, but maybe not due to its limited run.
