first of all theres not many actual tw dudes left
second is that they are strewn all over the place. The actual original TW corp has 60 ish members but ive never ever seen any of them login in like 4 years. TW's second "official" corp FREEE, merged the remainder of active people into R A which isn't under TW control so strict recruitment and yadda yadda ~~elitepvp~ (and thats without going into the drama llama details). I don't know what happened to vlasic's and the rest's faction warfare corp. I just know he's pretty busy with RL.
i usually recommend people to join TEST (reddit's alliance) because they have really good newbie programs and it seems like a good place for fun, casual pvp. The downside is you have a boat load of 4chan tards to deal with.
join the tribalwar channel ingame and people will help u and give u stuff
