Let me start by saying I'm aware not many care for Roleplayers, though I'm here with a small request and appeal to Blizzard to lighten the restrictions for a very special event currently being hosted on Moon Guard.
http://tournamentofages.com/
The Tournament of Ages is a once a year event hosted for all RPers from all RP servers (Or outsiders if you wanna watch) to come and Roleplay and have fun with the rest of the community. There have been known to have 20 different RP guilds at one point joining in the festivities.
We have booths, events like Hearthstone challenges and PVP duels, right down to the standard D20 battles and pet battling. The Tournament also raises funds for charity! In this case it's the USO.
This event is supposed to be fun and engaging...however there is a phasing issue. Given the size of the event, even forty man groups aren't enough to cover the player base, as such we have around 40+ players in one phase, and then a bunch of others who are then missing out because of it.

This is a fine example. The event started to day. There would have been at least eighty players in that arena if it weren't for phasing. There are about six in that screen shot.
Here's another example: http://i.imgur.com/l9ljNfU.jpg
RP addons are able to show where other RPers are for RP hotspots. You could see the mass of players that should be in my area, but I'm alone in another phase with maybe another two or three people running around.
I don't ask much. Even if it's just for this zone that'd be fine. Though what was supposed to be a fun event is turning quite bothersome because not everyone is getting immersed in the experience we look forward to every year.
That is my appeal, I hope to see it at least adjusted to suit everyone's needs.
