You could also try meeting with one or two people at a time and make their characters then. Figure out the general idea of what your players want to play and meet with them before hadn to make the characters and hopefully taylor them to the players liking. It also allows the player to discuss...

For me depends on the player. I've played with older people who act like children, and at the same time played with younger people who acted more mature. Depends on gaming style and intent. Power gamers generally stay that way.
