But the separate town of Oktal, the method to access for lower levels and level requirements to join it shouldn't be changed. Not everyone has the time or desire to mingle with the lower level crowd. Consider Oktal a VIP lounge if nothing else - a privilege that was earned either by level or by an inexpensive pet. It's great IMHO.
Some players do have time and desire to mingle with the new players. Isolating new players from the players that have been playing for years is not a great idea. Lots players always complain about seeing the same players everyday.

The oldgen should have less influence on the game because they arent as active as they use to be. They are out of touch with the game because they have other priorities in life.
