Any hopes to EVER get 8+ man content?

I disagree with that, those are at the bottom of my list of MMO content I like to play. They are just spam fests, and you are lucky if anyone even says a word to anyone else.

We already have this type of content in behests and it suffers from this exact same problems. The game needs content for all types of people, and right now it is seriously lacking for the many linkshells built for alliance type content. My favorite memories from any MMO was where we could get all or the bulk of our membership involved at once to work on something together as a team. Breaking up into smaller parties I can stomach for now, but it just isn't the same type of bonding experience or as fulfilling as everyone coming together to take down a big dragon etc..

Public quests in Rift (or Warhammer for that matter) are so much better than Behest.

You make my point throwing numbers at something just makes it worse because it becomes less about skill and more about spamming a monster to death, 15 man Behest proves that.

Sure if they can give us 20+ man content that requires skill then I'm all for it, but looking at how 15 man parties used to work I wouldn't hold much hope.

Even the open world bosses (Dodore, Buffalo etc) where made better after the reduction is party size.
