But isn't the whole point of character restrictions is because the server is already near the limit of how many players it can support? It seems like its less a problem of new players, but just that your raiding scene on your server is saturated. But anyway, the problems that you mention give further support to your idea of multiple tiered raids, which i like a lot. It lowers the barrier to entry for raiding and ensures that more people can partake in the content, which hopefully will transition to more activity for fcs and linkshells and hopefully 24 man raids at the level of coil in future.
