As we all should know by now, the once mighty, clean, and fun world of Ceardia is going to die. However... I personally think that there is much merit in creating a copy of the world and wasting it.
By 'wasting' I mean converting the familiar hills, deserts, forests, icelands, swamps, islands, and oceans of Ceardia into a vast wasteland biom of some sort. Leaving the ruined hulks of notable bases (like Alamut's city and the leavings of Magenta) behind as slag and stone covered ruins to be explored by users. SilverEdge could be saved by a dome of some sort, or perhaps risen up on a mighty plateau or even a floating island by the magical beings that inhabit it (would create a viable RP reason and method for the city to survive). The rest of the world would be very similar to the old Ceardia (same continents and such), but would have large craters, massive volcanoes, and regions of the world that have sunken or risen depending on the idle whims of the admins who do it. A few oasis and a scattering of obsidien trees later and you have a true wastland world worthy of a server like this.
A few notes on the world:

A few notes on the world:
- There would be NO ores beneath its surface, as they were all used up prior to the worlds destruction. The world would be solely for fun and interest, not for resources.
- A few memorable locations would be kept, but in a ruined form (I'm sure you'll find many volunteers willing to ruin their old homes in a pretty manner).
- Obsidian Trees would replace the old ones, just the wood parts. This is because of petrification of wood over time with given heat and pressure. Or magic. Magic is always fun.
