Forgot all about this game until now, wow!!! Been quite a few years since I even tried to login to Dragon's Tale.
Dragon's Tale is still technically alive, but it's not as active as it used to be. I checked it out recently, and while they have added some features like PVP and skill-based games, the community has thinned out a lot. Some people still play, but it feels outdated compared to newer games. As for legitimacy, they're still functioning, but I'd recommend caution when spending real money. Things can change fast with smaller platforms like that.
Is there any chatter as far as people complaining they haven't been paid when trying to cash out? I don't recall seeing any scam accusations threads.
teppy better known as Di in the game was last active in April of this year, would be nice if they get a noti from this and answer.
