That's the price you've chosen to pay, though. CCP have higher priorities and you have the alliance system.
Come on now... there is NO reason to make it difficult to have several thousands of members in a corporation. Why not make it as easy as possible?
Every reason.. (it's exploitworthy, so can't explain here), I'd personally limit corps to 250.

Yes Dark, and it's really hard to understand why we can't have seperate icons for BPO and BPC's too, but we can't. So...

That's much more of an issue, as thousands of new icons have to be made. This doesn't even require a new icon.
No, not really, you can generate them programatically. One program and a few hours. That's not the issue, the issue is the client thinks they're thr same item.
MMO's coding | obvious.
You're Assuming that it's 10 minute job.

Dark Shikari, and you're Assuming that every part of the corp system will scale up without issues. I remind you of the gang that got so large it managed to break the gang system.
And...there are ways arround SOME of the problems you mention, and certainly it could be done if there was the will to do it. But it'd need coder and test time, as this would that is allready tied up in other projects.
I'm not assumming anything beyond the fact that the Goon's directors HAVE chosen to be there, knowing the limits of the situation.

Do you think they set an array for gang size? And yet the gang, when it got to a certain size, fell over.

And the chat channels for that large a corp WOULD be in memory, neh?
"Highly doubt" is not good enough. You cannot rely on a doubt..you have to etst and be sure - in the case of something like this, likely a full regression analysis on all corp-related functions.

Again, not a safe assumption to make.

But anyways, someone suggested a few pages back that allowing a larger corporation might create greater strain on the server because of an enlarged corporate chat channel.
Actually the chat channel wasn't the primary concern, it was every single element. You really really can't just assume all corp functions will work for a larger corp without testing(there have been 2 HUGE gangs which crashed the gang system).
It's really not that simple.
My answer would be better alliance tools and the ability to create a confederation of alliances, tbh.
