I'm seeing over 200 shell FCs listed on Raiden with a level 25 Master and 3 lvl 1 alt members, prepped since the day the server opened two weeks ago.

And these are the FCs that are getting first pickings on the plots because of the 30 day rule? Half of them are probably engaged in RMT and will see those FCs changing Masters and names as soon as they have a plot.
