Travian was such a great game even in the original formats but I can't see it lasting much longer.
I can expect the game to survive at least 10 more years. Ofc people still quit but it is absolutely not end of the road. The server isn't fully merged. and not like ikariam or gladiatus it still survives.
From your description alone, I think there is a lot of account like that.
Most of them called inactive account and usually farmed by every raider in your area.
Yes, that is what I am saying.
Also, you can defend with armies that originally did not belong to the same village, why should you not be able to attack in the "same" way?
That can make all player quit since you can build a WWK easily. It will only about money now.
QuoteThe Gold Club price will change from 100 Gold to 200 Gold. And no, we did not raise the starting gold to cover the additional cost of the Gold Club. There's no connection.
You don't raise the starting gold for gold club. Is just that you want to Gold club more expensive(with the change of making gold club value 200 gold all the time) and to avoid a huge disturbance, the starting gold need to raise as well 
Thank to this guide I can sell my cage for 1000 silver/5 cage at day 30
I see some 400 pop after 18h with 31k raid only. Insane amount of task reward. The best part is that is per village quest.
