I've read that too, and although I would definetly consider myself an inexperienced player, I dont see how this makes any sense at all.
I can understand that resources may a bit more 'plentiful' a week or two after a new server starts, but to me the most important resource here is time.
Time to grow your first village, preparing troops, getting your field productivity going, etc. That way two or three weeks in, there's a good chance you'll be one of the biggest villages in your area, and already have a solid infrastructure to support yourself.
