Nope our free company has been gaining members across multiple time zones, having to put up restrictions currently. Have an EU group going through coil and several NA groups at turn 5. About to have enough to open a 2nd EU coil group and 3rd NA.

FC has enough to handle anything SE can throw at us. Averaging around 16 on during EU every day and 25+ at one time during NA. Total Active membership around 59 (active as in 20+hrs a week).

Not seeing an issue at all on my side. We had to reduce how many weekly events we do, simply because coil last 1day now. Hoping 2.1 fixes that with more content.

The massive free companies of 100+, I see them as either being a casual company or gaming community style company. In my experience both those kinds have massive fluctuation of membership to begin with due to the design and focus on the guild. Nothing wrong with them but the more casual they are the more variance in members usually.
