How come this happened though? That's truly a shame :/In general the raiding community on Phoenix is in very sharp decline, this has been evident even before the expansion was launched and since then it's only been getting worse due to demanding fights such as Living Liquid breaking up statics with increasing frequency, causing progression driven players to leave Phoenix in search of greener pastures.
Put to point, you can ask any raiding Free Company leader or static leader on this server and I'm very sure they could tell you in great detail how difficult it is to find competent players to fill spots in progression groups on Phoenix.
In the environment of hardcore progression, ever since Exordium disbanded a few weeks after the launch of Final Coil the overall 'bar' for progression on Phoenix has been drastically lowered and at no point has any Free Company stepped up to take back that very same mantle and as a result, the 'quality' of raiding on Phoenix as a whole has suffered, as there is no incentive for players to come here for progression reasons. Ultimately individuals who hold progression as their sole focus will always drift towards servers that contains the majority of the likeminded players, which causes the competent raid capable individuals to who lose their statics to act in this very same manner.
With the advent of EU servers, while I remain hopeful that Phoenix will see a definate influx of new players due our vast casual population I fear that this won't help remedy the overall situation, as servers such as Ragnarok or Cerberus just offer so much more to a progression minded player who's actually doing their research of which server to move to.

Well I truly hope good players come with the transition! I know that a lot of players are gonna be coming again so lets hope so.
