Now that the server has been up for about a week I think it's pretty important to communicate server progression and lock the raids while it's being decided. Starting with just Onyxia and MC and then releasing each progressive raid/catch up raids every 3 months or so will be much healthier for the server overall, allow devs to work on fixes and content with some breathing room, and give the community a clear focus for the server.
Having even Onyxia and MC locked for a few weeks allows devs to do some preliminary tests to ensure everything is working fine enough, while allowing the server to see more level 60's to farm level 60 dungeons for pre-bis before jumping into the first raid.
I understand the focus right now is bringing all the classes to the 1.18.1 state, but it should be simple enough to lock the raids in an update this week while all this is decided
