With the launch of DDO:Unlimited the game will get a new server called Cannith to start fresh on!
"We’re proud to announce that a new high-capacity server world will open during the Dungeons & Dragons Online®: Eberron Unlimited™ Head Start beginning 9/1/2009. The new server is named Cannith, a name that comes from a famous Dragonmarked noble house in Eberron. House Cannith is capable of creating great magical wonders and terrible magic weapons; it was they who created the armies of warforged who fought in the Last War!
Cannith will be open exclusively to VIPs for the 1st day, and then open to all Head Start players. Cannith will be open to new characters only. There will be no character transfer service available for this new world at this time. Players participating in the Head Start will be able to begin playing new characters on Cannith prior to public release of DDO Unlimited!
The addition of this new world comes on the heels of a major hardware upgrade that significantly increased the capacity of the existing DDO worlds, in anticipation of the launch of DDO Unlimited on 9/9/2009. The launch of Cannith is the latest in our updates for the launch of DDO Unlimited, and underscores our ongoing commitment to DDO. We’ll see you in-game!"

So who is going to roll on the new server?
If WoW = The Beatles
and WAR = Led Zeppelin
Then LotrO = Pink Floyd

I must say that's a great move by the team. I'm very interested in trying the game out and if I do so, I will be playing on that new server!
true locking out transfer and having to start anew on that server is a great move
Now they need to make sure all new players know it is the new and untwinked server so that everyone is starting out equal. Great way to fix the economy for incoming new players as well. One look at the AH on the regulkar servers would ruin it for a lot of new players. Now they can start fresh and not deal with all the high priced and over powered vets.
Yep, I'll be starting fresh on this server.
1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.
2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.
3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.
I'll be there
