    Hello,

    This is a loaded question, but as a new player: what is the best place to start out in Britannia?

    I'm somewhat of a social butterfly and would like a more populous town where I can interface with veterans to the game.

    Thanks in advance,
    Luch

    Occlo is by far the busiest place, largely because it's the centre of the [Young] new player program.

    It's essentially UOR's West Brit.

    Welcome aboard.

    Thanks for the info! And cheers!

    Ok, so IRC is the goto for comms then? No discord I take it given the goal of era-accuracy?

    If you'd like to not participate in the [Young] program, then Skara Brae and Moonglow are both good starting areas. Ocllo is, of course, also good (regardless of [Young] status).

    Several guilds have their own private Discord.
    But the overall community will be IRC
    But the forums are a place where more people play :)
