there's a list of things that have killed interest in evony. the top of my list is accounts with feeders. some feeder accounts make up 100 member alliances. they all belong to 1 person. it's too difficult to compete with that AND have fun. 1 side-effect of the 100+ feeders is you can't farm anyplace that isn't already being farmed by feeders of an alliance member. if you clear an enemy held area, they just port feeders there and loot the npc's there. so when 200 opens, enjoy competing with the feeders folks.
