Everything he just said is true. I've been a member of the Vast Empire for almost five years now. It has a great community, and is a great place to make new friends, work on your writing abilities, or even do some gaming.
And yes, I know it's obvious I am not a member of that alliance. But, I joined cybernations before they got started, so don't kill me too much over that small fact.
It's a great place folks, at the very least you should check it out.
