The SWG Has a big community if you come to think about it... we have 20+ servers, all of them are very light or light.
Why not announce in this order?
Announce that servers will be deleted due to low population, and you would like to make more population on your servers.
Do a clean up of all the houses.
Allow free transfers for characters based on if they have an alt on the same server or not, to move to another server (Seeing how most people might have 2?)
Ideas/Changes/DISCUSS!!!

What are you really trying to achieve?
If servers are low population then whats with the lag?
Its lag not graphical but bandwidth and transfer related, speed and packet loss not related to harvesters that are all over the planets that the game does not load if you are not in range to see them. Also, I believe those server load are based on the load at the time your looking at it, not a total population for the server, I have seen same servers show different readings at different times of the day.
Besides when the time comes they will do this sort of thing if they see servers being underutlized the bean counters will make this happen however they decide its best for their wallet.

I actually think this is a great idea. The system mechanics are in place and have been tested because of the character transfer. I think there may be a very realistic chance of this happening down the road. Just offer each player on a deleted server a free character transfer.

Then maybe your server could not be affected.But a lot of other servers are in the jumble right now.
