I wonder why they keep making these types of servers. It isn't even a challenge. Below is the timeline from Sleeper.
Original Planes unlocked 2006/07/09
Kunark unlocked 2006/07/12
Velious unlocked 2006/09/08 (I'm surprised Magician epic wasn't the last one)
Luclin unlocked 2006/10/15 (All of NToV was dead by 2006/09/10)
PoP unlocked 2006/11/18
LDoN (skipped, doesn't impact progression)
GoD unlocked 2007/01/31 (Some PoP bosses were already dead on 2006/11/19)
Progression over.
I'm sure this new one will have a similar timeline. Now, perhaps I'm not familiar with an aspect of progression servers, but I believe they are built such that once someone unlocks an expansion, everyone can advance. My preference would be that the prerequisite encounters give flags, and only flagged people can move forward.
It's already a hardcore server concept to begin with, so, for me, that would be a good approach that wouldn't ruffle too many feathers.
