As to the other: I don't have anything much to say about your personal situation with the older account but for me personally, I started with a fresh account during the last expansion and haven't really regretted it. I had intended to do one thing with the new account but found that a fresh start after being away for a while was not a bad thing.
Other than that personal recollection, only you know how you would react to that sort of thing. If you've been around the game a long time and have a lot of time and yourself invested in it, starting over may not be your best move.
