I started playing on this server about 3 days after it launched. The community seems to be an even split of extremely toxic and extremely friendly players. Cape is an amazing GM, though his availability is a problem (He just sent out a hiring call). I hold issues with a few things on the server (Full warp, healer/buffer, cheap resets, rates are a little lower than I like), but overall it's an amazing experience. Highly recommend.

Nova was my first true foray into renewal, and I'm very glad it was. This is easily the least toxic community in any RO server I have ever seen, period. There are *actual new players* on the regular, and people help them without being mean or sarcastic. Events are fun and engaging, the GMs feel like real people and engage actively with the community, donation items are readily available (mostly) from farming in game. If you're looking for a new server, come here.
