Hi everyone. So I am returning to LoTRO after 2 years away. I remember talk about the future legendary servers, and it appears they are here now! YAY!!!!
Anyway, what I could use some help with is making a choice between servers. I am a very social player, and like to make friends as I level up. In terms of
server population, does one server have a higher player base? To give details about my time zone, PST (western United States). Secondly I am curious
about how legendary servers match up against the original server population wise. For example, are the original servers much more populated in general?
(Notice I used the word "general" to avoid answers regarding, early leveling and endgame answers)

Lastly, and this is unrelated to the server health of original and legendary, is the point of legendary to give a feel of reliving the experience? For example,
do legendary servers exist to simply let us play it again? (that is what I am hoping for) Or is it more of a , "Here experience every quest this time because
you have to due to lowered xp rates"? I am hoping that is not necessarily it.

If you would like to give your own personal opinion on legendary servers as a whole that would be fine, and greatly appreciated.
I am very much looking forward to legendary servers assuming I am not falling into a grinding trap that is more intense than in the past! I would like to
possibly experience some quest lines I was able to skip in the past, but I don't want to be stuck questing for months to catch up to the current level cap.
I'm sure many people feel that way!

Thanks in advance!
