The perms aren't an issue, it's the number of active to inactive people.
The extra 5 people might not seem like a lot but that increases the number of active people needed to do in game things like wars or just general playing.
I'm pretty sure we have forum posts covered but wars is probably something we'd lack unless we accepted any war that comes our way.
In the end I think we'll be able to come to a conclusion when the new rules actually take effect in 2 months.
