Welcome back,
as you said yourself. There is no priority system that we could use. Eleon would need to implement a queue system under the hood.
The only thing which is possible is to kick non-patron players as soon as it gets full, which can become quite an unpleasant experience for them.
There are ideas to create a HWS RE server in NA and link them via Cross Server Warp.
But neither do I make enough money to support 4 servers and pay over 1k per month for all of them, nor is it at one point maintainable.
Will think about it and for now allow 200 players and just see what the game gives us I guess.
The 250+€ per month should be used to its full extend, hm?
