Howdy @militantmind,
I’ve just finished reading your post and I think that The Republic might be just the place for you! As it happens, our main active TZ nowadays is USTZ and we have a good number of players from California. We’re also a real life first corporation that is looking for more mature and experienced players.
Please see our advert here.
If you’ve got any questions and/or would like to join, please come talk to us on our Discord server (server information available in our advert).
Looking forward to hearing from you,
LeVa MagloN
President
Republic of Us
