lol I thought I'd be the only one who would ever start so late on a hero world...
Everyone keeps saying the world is dying, buts its not. Sure, there's always the problem of those who don't stay active or who go vm, but there's still a lot of players who are as active as any world. In the alliance I'm in, I see those who participate and those who don't, and despite the fact there are many who don't do anything there are still a ton who do.
