Hello everybody...

I used to play the game for couple of months 5 years ago.
I am considering returning to the game and there are mainly two things I'd like to know.

a. Are there limitations for non-paying members still the same? i.e only human and 1 char on the account
if not - what are the new limitaions and how will they effect my game if I decied to return?
b. How did the community change through the last 5 years? did it dwindle or increase in playerbase?

I recall the community (while being rather small) was one of the friendliest community I've ever had the pleasure of knowing - I do hope it remained the same and I do thank you all in advance for any reply =]
