no they are also seriously attended, try participate in a raid and you'll find out

But the main craze in AO is still the Free League.

but you can attend it everyday once after one and a half hour, unlike raids, you usually attend one of twice a week depending on your guild and nation's schedule of raid participation..and trust me, it's a lot more fun than just compete in free leagues

Alrighty! But that just might get me addicted to MMO's more rather than set me free from it.

you asked for it =P

Oh well... At least I can control it now. ^^ Raids, here I come!

what's good in instanced raids is that you can participate with your friends or guildmates without the worry of other gate crashers
