I do agree, unfortunately the more forums added the less available it would become for solo players with alts, and very small raiding groups. For example, I know that Arktor raids sometimes using his 4 klanned characters. At full visits that’s 48 total available – 12 for the initial forums and then 36 extras. If the number is bumped to say 20 that radically hits someone like Arktor and has almost zero impact on a group with 20+ characters available.
Honestly, it’s not a dramatic impact on me, just because my “raids” are something like 50% lemon sherbet, 30% pistachio, 10% solo vanilla, and 10% klan vanilla. It’s mostly a matter of just getting the extra vanilla because I can, not because it makes a huge difference.
But that’s irrelevant, really. (Solo raids can’t really be considered “raiding” either.) Personally I think that increasing the count of forums to hold would have a severe impact on raids unless they had 20+ players, just because there’d be a much higher chance of losing several forums simultaneously.
Or, for an alternative, what if it was still a matter of being required to hold 12 forums, but the forums to hold were the 12 forums from Episode 1? Right now you can find:

Denture Chat Difficulty Level 1 Heath Ledgers Ghost – 1m ago
There are 14 forums there that currently have a turnover of over 1 hour. You can just pick 11 of these and denture chat for an insanely easy time. At the moment, and this generally seems to be true (for obvious reasons involving leveling and forums with no real point to running them besides in-a-row), the episode 1 forums have a higher rate of turnover.
