Just wanted to throw my 2c about this sentiment, in case anyone else is having similar thoughts. I remember reading through the forums in late 2022 and thinking, man, this place seems pretty depressing. People angry about story stuff, people arguing about 5.0 balance. Should I even bother returning?
Well, turns out I made the right choice. Just find a faction where you can develop a character, write some rp that you enjoy. Don't tie yourself to PoBs or specific story outcomes. I played my RM char and started casually writing events, figuring it out as I went along. If you cannot find anything to do with this in mind, I guess the place ain't for you after all. But I'd be very surprised to see another game and community that can offer what we have here. Good luck finding it.
