I am looking for a community/clan to join. I am mostly interested in exploration/mining and the new update basically makes it impossible to play with just a handful of people unless you are all high level.
Currently I am on Solum but have no issue moving to another planet if need be.
These are fairly active settlements, but there are plenty more, for instance you can find people nearly anytime in the market of Therka too:
There are no real clans yet, maybe little friend-parties, but joining a larger, more active settlement will help you meet other players, and they are mostly helpful (if they are not in a hurry).
If you want be a part of something, Proxima is up and coming. We have just above 10 villagers at the moment with most being very active across all time zones. At ~ -1900N +600E, we are growing everyday and welcome any new villagers with help and friendship. Message if you want more info.
