I have a very simple suggestion that I think would solve the issues of Anathema and Darrowshire.
Wait for AQ to come out on Darrowshire, advance the release, or release it immediately if necessary. The Darrowshire folks deserve to see a proper AQ gate opening event.
Merge Anathema and Darrowshire. Now here's the sauce - make modifications to the core whereby each character is permanently either a PvE or PvP character. PvE players will still be free to play without interruption from unwanted PvP activity. PvP players will still have the same number of other PvP flagged players as they had on Anathema to interact with.
Allow transfers from Elysium to the new server.
Based on Saturday's numbers, the new server would have 3.2K players, double the current amount, which is a very healthy level.
There are some flaws here but I think this is a much better solution than bringing hundreds (thousands?) of over-geared and/or modified characters to Elysium, which is already very highly (perhaps too highly) populated.
