I did a /sea all on Sunday on Cerberus in the middle of the day and there were 800 people logged on. I used to sea over 2,000 at that time of day. EVen the JP are complaining to the devs about the number of people quitting. Stop kidding yourself.

Who cares?

All that matters is that they are basing decisions on the broken logic that keeping people from doing the content by imposing limitations somehow makes it so that more people can do the content.

They ignore complaints for months / years at a time, so if they make it so anyone can enter solo and people end up hating it, it shouldn't really be a big deal for them to ignore our complaints about that too and change it back if / when they feel like it.
