Indeed?

Worlds normally restart only when a few things happen, some mager update that needs the world to restart, the server crashes badly causing issues, something in the data gets corrupted. Right now I doubt any of the three ways is gonna happen.

Given the fact we're actually paying for the game now, I sincerely hope not. There is a question when it's "completed" to have a different sever for newer players, or jorb can make the world bigger. I'd like to see how big the world can get.

I do not want a world restart, unless i die. So please don't not not restart maybe sometimes.
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy

Yeah only restart it if I die, then I can accept it.

Im totally fine with a world restart if its going to bring a whole buncha new stuff with the world gen. Stuff like new boulder mechanics and nonsense such as that.
It also gives me the oh-so-untrue feeling that I'm on the same level as the pros for a while.
I paid the devs money because i trust them to make the right decisions, and if they think a world restart is needed, I can work with that.

I do not see a world restart happening anytime soon the only reason why they would do that is if they're going to upgrade the server hardware with the money they're making if it's a decent amount should be able to do that
