The place is what you make it for the most part. Find some friends, get some RP in. Naturally, others will join you. Maybe you'll stumble upon a DM event where your dex-based character fails hilariously at trying to lasso a dead body in a death circle. Maybe you'll split a rentable with someone and host some events. Or maybe you'll win at a tavern contest.
The trick, really, is to just expect nothing outside of what you can do for yourself.
As far as my thoughts on the server as a whole, I think enchanting was a mistake. That's more of a personal preference, though, as I much prefer the low-magic types of settings.
