For what it's worth, I think a complete reboot would work better than the time jump scenario, but based on the responses thus far, I'd say that one's impossible. I'll offer a little of my reasoning anyway.
But hear me out anyway. It would have removed any issues of needing to juggle different levels/rewards/etc and replaced it with a balanced opportunity to start fresh and let the PC's grow up together. Currently, there seem to be "generations" of PC's. How many active PC's took part in the Salamander War, for instance? I don't even have a PC who did, because I retired mine afterward. "Rewarding" PC's who have been active up until this point could still be done, since it's not like there aren't plenty of perks available.
It's not like starting over would be crippling to anyone. XP and notoriety aren't exactly difficult to accumulate here, especially during DM active times (which those early campaigns certainly were).
