Terra United | S1: Pacem Fragilem

I've been here for about a month and a half now, and so far I've gotten to experience two roleplays. Both have been pretty good, quality roleplays you can't find anywhere else, making Terra something of a beacon for nation roleplay servers. The maps are amazing, the mechanics are realistic and great, and the server is so big that it's never inactive. All in all, a great *roleplay* experience.

The staff are the problem. First of all, ownership seems a little unstable, having changed hands much to many's dismay during my stay. Certain admins are known to abuse their positions and yet are allowed to stay anyway or in some cases get promoted. No one seems to have a vote on when or if a season ends, leaving many angry when suddenly all their hard work goes down the drain with no warning. Finally, the roleplay GMs were so inactive that now Terra runs almost exclusively on self-GMing, except for things such as wars. All of this underlines clear problems with the moderation.

All in all, while the quality of the NRPs may be the best around, the moderation is quite bad. Terra is good for if you can't find an alternative of the same quality, but ultimately I just can't recommend it over other better moderated options.

I've been in this community for quite some time, and honestly, despite the various troubles a server may have, none of them are out of the ordinary. All in all, Terra offers the perfect balance for roleplayers; it's not too simple nor complex, not too far-fetched nor hyperrealistic, etc. There's plenty of channels and forums to roleplay in, keep record of your military, research, and past actions, and there's a robust staff team that's willing to help you with your needs, with each department focusing on different matters (Community, Roleplay, War, Cartography) to ensure the server runs smoothly. I recommend it, 10/10 server.
