A township tale is incredibly fun and it feels very rewarding to actually craft items with your hands and go on wild adventures with your friends. However personally, I'm not that big of a fan when it comes to the wiping every two weeks especially on private servers. I understand it keeps public servers clean/helps updates run smoother, but when it comes to small private servers... Some of the tasks can come off as a bit daunting/tedious.
(So I can only recommend it to those who know ahead of time, the servers wipe every two weeks) Thankfully the player character/the items as well as skill they hold remain intact after a wipe. The Wipe is bi-weekly on Wednesdays
