I wouldn't object to the latter either. But it would get confusing if new players could get old id's. I mean you could check their bio to see how old they are, but since that can be turned off a newbie could very easily try to present themselves as an old vet. Granted doing so wouldn't really give them any advantages-quite the opposite, they would end up not getting a lot of support most newbies get from actual vets.

It's not hard to start giving random IDs from those players that are no longer around. The hard part is to do it in a structured way, also allowing existing players to rearrange their ids.

We are just sceptical on getting such high IDs in the game when the players -with an existing character- are around 15 000



May I suggest something a little different.
Lately, I discovered that you can't send money (as a gift) to someone with less than 500 fames, so, that kind of mechanism already exist.
Maybe just to change the goal (10k fame for example, as a milestone) and a condition to be met.

Edit
Maybe I misunderstood... is that (fundraising) foreseen to be permanent or only for the first person to fulfill the condition?

ID reset -

If you are to avoid crossing the 100000 mark,
my suggestion would be to just start a new ID set with an ID set designation.

for example
old (existing ) players
A1 - A99,999

new (future) players
B1 - B99,999


I keeps new players recognizable and keeps ID's from being hard to read.
