Hello

I played this game years ago... But cant remember much about the game, sadly (i blame old age, 43 /cough).
Im planning on returning, as soon as ive decided on what sub suits me the best, and what Race and Class i want to focus on..
Ive got no idea if my old toon(s) are still there or not, but deffinately want to start from scratch.

I was hoping someone could help me, and im sorry if i should post this elsewhere..

When i return, and if i pick a sub that allow me to own a plot, will i be able to actually get myself a plot(once ive gotten the cash etc for it), or are all plots taken?
I love player housing, so if getting a plot is possible, then i want to set that as my primary goal.
But if thats an unrealistic goal, then i ofcourse will set a different goal.

Also something else..
Is it possible to fight with polearms of sorts in this game?.

I was thinking going Spellcaster, maybe with some healing?. Either as a Dryad or a Human.
But fighting with "big sticks" is fun too.. if its possible

Oh and, which server has the most and least pop?

Anyway, heres to hoping for years of enjoyment in the world of Istaria
