That’s an official limitation of members within a Plex Home.  
You can have a total of 15 members inside your Plex Home – that is including the admin.

> ## Limitations

> ### Single Admin

> There is a single admin for the Plex Home. This is the user that originally created the Home. The admin user essentially has _complete_ control over things: Only the admin user can add, remove, or edit who is in the Home.

You can share with a larger number of users as “Friends” that are not members of your Plex Home. If I remember correctly, the absolute max. of shares (=members of the Plex Home + regular Friends) is something between 80 and 100.

Of course… just invite them as friends — not to join the Plex Home. The Plex Home feature is intended to be used for members of your actual household (e.g. actual family)
