As a newbie when you join an old server there are pro and cons :
+ Pro :
- You get to see more people afk in Konoha.

- Your ninja exam from 135 til 180 at choke point maybe easier.

+ Cons:
- You can't win against anyone.

- You won't get any free stuffs that pretty much ALL people who play before you got.

- Your survival trial experience will be hell from day 1 unlike people who started before you.

- Your rank arena will also be hell and good luck reach Sage of Six Paths for some free CP unlike other people who play before you.

- You can't plunder, so kiss good bye the best cp income source because you won't be able to get in top 100 rank battle in at least 2 or 3 months or you need to pay for something other people get for free.

- You ain't have any chance in Space Time Battle (but you won't get any chance in new server anyway lel).

- When you level up you will be easy target for other people to plunder, the older the server the more freeze level players (P2W people).

- You won't win in sage world because your free rerouces are extremely limited. You take 1 step the other guy already take 5 or 10.

- Same for matsuri, your life will be basically hell.

- No group would allow you to participate GNW let alone GNW pack it if you decided to join a crowded server.

- Most of people you see in afk in town won’t even bother to gelp you with your TI or SA unless they’ve done with their. So unless you have the patience and time to wait for them else you are screw.

Hmm, I don't know, joining an old server seem like a good idea because some "veteran" players on forum told me to even tho I'm not a whale to back myself up or friends in the server or experience about the game. Guess I'll jo... *process to die*

So yea, for those "veteran" players who go around telling bs about how it's better to join an old server. You can stop now.
