I played it for awhile, and I even got lucky and was able to start as a new server/realm came up and even though I played it multiple hours a day, make sure I always had stuff going on. Either people who pumped ALOT of money into the game or who hacked completely destroyed my clan. It was fun for awhile, but when one person relocated his base right inside your clans area and single handle can destroy everyone because hes 20 levels higher and has a army stronger then half your clan combined even though you've put in about as much time as a person can at that point.
There is a reason its one of the top grossing games because you have to stand a chance.
