I'm back after a long break and I'm trying to figure out where the people actually are in the evenings, on Alliance side. I've tried just standing around in the old capital cities like I remember doing years ago, and it's quiet, maybe a few folks passing through on their way somewhere else. I also tried general chat, but that moves fast and feels more like background noise than anywhere people actually gather.
I'm not asking about raid guilds or anything like that, just wondering where the casual, low-key crowd tends to be these days if someone wants to find other people to chat with or maybe run something easy together. Is there a hub that replaced the old city square feeling, or does that kind of gathering just not really happen the same way anymore?
If anyone who plays Alliance in the evenings has noticed a pattern of where people end up, I'd like to hear it. Not looking for a wall of advice, just curious what you've actually seen with your own eyes.
