Is it worth returning to PWI?

Straight to the topic I guess b:shocked

As an experienced PWI player, I've been around for ages (too many chars ^^), or at least I was. I stopped playing, I think, around the time of the release of the Anniversary Packs a while back. The economy went out of the wack and whatever else, and there were mass forum rants (I'm sure you know what I'm on about). For about 1 month after I quit, I kept checking back to see the news on the new classes (Psy/Sin), but nothing came up, so I guess I quitted completely.

Life story aside, my question is - is it worth starting to play again? Are there many players left? How's the community changed? Has the economy stabalised? And so on.

Many thanks in advance b:victory

P.S. - Are there any new servers, and what timezones are these set in?

    Actually, the economy has stabilized where it is now.

    If you didn't like it then, you won't like it now, and it's not gonna change in a long time.

    Search'd, and found out about a load of new stuff b:shocked

    Two last questions (since I'd rather not make a new thread);
    *A few posts mentioned certain servers having timezone changes - is there anywhere where I can see a list of every server, and their corresponding GMT time?
    *Do Assasins fit well into squads? Or are they unwanted?

    Again, thanks in advance b:victory

    As far as I know, server times are the same for each one o_O Correct me if I'm wrong.

    Assassins....well, they do have that buff that returns HP for the amount of damage you deal out, but that only applies to physical DD. Otherwise..... they're mostly meant for PvP, with little use in PvE.

    Someone mentioned that Lost City got +1 or something, and some others said other things...b:thanks

    So if I want to be an Assasin, the obvious choice would be to go to HL? Not a fan of LC. I'd love to go RT, as there doesn't seem to be a huge amount of endgame players there, so I wouldn't be completely out of the loop. I want the PvE factor (faction FB/TT runs are awesome), but I guess sins aren't that good in squads. Torn now o_O

    Accronyms are ftw.

    I guess I could go Psychic - are they good in squad runs of various dungeons?

    Some are west coast servers and some are east coast servers. The time is adjusted accordingly....like LC is west coast.

    If you don't cash shop, I'd say find another game at this point.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    You're kidding, right?

    RT is the cash shop server. Coins have been replaced by oracles, and gold is still gold and is rather expensive when it comes to new server standards. There are already 8x and 9x on that server, easily. Especially now with the Hyper EXP stones, the cash shop server will hit endgame within the next month or two.
