There are a lot of great fictional leagues out there. Unfortunately, it seems as if there's a good chunk of the online player base that is only interested in joining leagues with 20+ years of history or leagues where the only open team is the one they're about to fill. This means that newer leagues can really struggle to ever reach the "storied" levels that other leagues have.

I certainly recognize the advantages of joining a long-standing league - I belong to a league myself that is in its 23rd season currently. There's a certain sense of security knowing that the league has been alive and stable for so long. But to use my league as an example, I've had people tell me to get back in touch with them when we've been around a few more years.
