Paradigm anarchy

Paradigm is a new anarchy server on the market. Though we have two rules, this doesn’t classify us otherwise. Our intention is to see whether we can create a community, even with little to no rules. Will we see factions, groups, or small communities? Or will it end up being a free for all, with no loyalties, friendships, alliances and so forth? In essence, the experience will be more akin to a social experiment. One, which may or may not turn permanent. Welcome to Paradigm, and please enjoy your stay!
