Even with its massive numbers, Holo averages 60-70 attendance for any raid. It gives new players a chance to level up and have a shot at pixels cause in doesn't take long for everyone to have what they need. Sure there is a huge line for items like Crown and AoN but everything else is basically handed out.
The best example is epics. When I joined Nihilum had epics on lock-down. If you were not in Nihilum, you didn't get a Ranger/Druid epic. At all. Don't even try. I was on the server 8 months before I got my epic done, look how long Andis took to get his? Year + ?. NIhilum was elitist and although it worked for them, it was detrimental to server population. Now we got members who are on the server a week, 2 - 3 weeks and are up in arms about not having their epics already.
TLDR. People will continue to join so long as the "potential" for loot is there, and in Velious, there's more then enough to go around.
