More often than not players forced extreme imbalance because they had fun wiping the floor with newbs. This went on long enough and was doing such harm to the community that Funcom stepped in and put a stop to it. Then everything was a bit more balanced towards randomness. The solo mini player would actually often get on a decent team and good games would ensue.
I feel that if Funcom were to allow full groups to sign up together again, it would make minis more populated for a short spike of time, then things would quickly get worse than they are now due to the *pro* players always being grouped together.
