I played Vanilla because one I didn't have CSS and that I had started a family there. It kept me coming back from my old community. And funny enough I ended up finding this place by chasing a girl here. She left but yet I was still constantly going back to the vanilla server.
Vanilla is just so much easier to handle, especially with good ping, and seamless gameplay, although it gets tiring at times especially if you're bored being innocent all the time, and have no option to change that like in the West and East Servers. I love playing with regulars all the time, and more than half the time, it's just chill.
