    It's just a small fix for occasional "PvP saturday nights" some FC could do, but it won't drive more people in.

    What PvP need is a constant flow of players, mostly soloqueuing, in order to establish a solid PvP playerbase.
    The problem with GC restrictions is that it inhibits the queue times for solo queues as well though. Say you have 60 flames, 30 maelstrom, and 15 adders queued up. If there was no GC restriction the queue would pop, but because there is a restriction everybody waits and the additional flames who queued last wait even longer. People will eventually withdraw because the queue is taking so long and then you're back to square one.

    I agree that it only fixes part of the problem because there still isn't a lot of incentive in terms of rewards from pvp. Grind hundreds of hours, get some really cool glamour gear (if you happen to even play a job with cool gear, some of it is terrible) and maybe a mount or two.
