So true. The community used to be fun but it's so stagnant now. The big navies ruined it by making too many alliances IMO. Whereas small new navies really don't do anything as if they make a hint of hostile activity the 15 largest navies all show up at once and glass them.

I agree that building ships has gotten boring after many years. Its all the same cycle 2-4km long hull. slap on 50-200 guns and put on a base.

I'll miss you, but I agree with why you'ree leaving. I can't really complain because I'm pretty much out the door too, but I'm sad to see the wiki in this state.
