I like this idea a lot, specially knowing how old my world is and how long ago I started it.
And at the same time I see two problems:
1) if you have the choice of entering a world that has been going on for 3 days or wait 3 days to start with everyone else, most probably you would do like me wait; so how to get a world filled that has been going on for some days? Just getting only beginners to fill them up, since they can't choose which world they join, would be in MHO a poor choice and probably you could get this way many worlds that are only half populated.
2) One solution to 1) would be to start a world 24 hours after the last person signed up. And the problem here is what to do with the fresh starters, you can't put them on hold till the next world starts. On the other side if every new player starts in a training world where he can learn the basics inside a seven day frame and after gaining a quest are promoted to register for a world that is filling up, he wouldn't be on hold and has some time learning the game basics.
