World 18 is one of the worst worlds as far as players are concerned. It was family tribe infested and rife with bad leadership. It is no surprise that families still run rampant there.
Yes a world filled up with players so fast...
(like this one)
Where people from another game have adapted and been successful.
(so far... like this one)
Also, if families were so easy to break... why haven't they been broken on W18 like you have said.
The crappy ones have been broken. O/M, BaS, etc... but
good leadership and good communication have allowed families to exist on W18.
I am not convinced this is the case for W30 as the leadership has not moved over.
edit:
You guys would be surprised, TWA is now in charge of both W18 and W30. The UA in W18 is STILL not broken. Oh and TWA doesn't noble barbs, just look at the stats, so they will never noble someone's farm.
A lot of the good TWA isn't in W30 TWA.
Look around, a few are playing under alternative accounts but some are here and haven't joined up.
