Hey Selina, What you just described is something BA strives to prevent. It's easy for groups to turn into cliques and we try our hardest to prevent that. A majority of our players are on during the times of 7est - 11est, and there's always something going on. We're mostly a mature (older) group of players that range from hardcore progression to casual and crafting, but ALL are friendly and willing to help out. We encourage ALL our players from the very new to experienced to have a voice. I think a trial run would be great, just let me know what time works for you and I'll get something setup.
