Agreed!
Something should be done about this matter. If better XP or increased chance for item drops, decreasing benefits of other than BK and skirmish or whatever. I never saw seriously maned BK rooms and even skirmish midweek is going tough.
There still might be enough players who started new crews, but probably it lacks from the initial boost. If currently starting BK or S, it takes a lot of patience with no certainty for the required dynamic to evolve.
