Where should I go?
Freedom and Virtue are the busiest, but you still won't see many people outside "in the world."
City of Heroes is and always will be an instance heavy game. Go down to the Liberty forums and find out what the major team finding global channels are. People use those to find teams since they are accessible cross zone/instance.
Where to now?

Virtue and Freedom are the two most populated servers - but Liberty is far from dead

Liberty always seems to be bustling for me.
I've been away from the game for over a year, and recently re-upped my subscription.
Finding that Liberty has a dearth of other heroes that I've been able to see (it seems like most people on Liberty hang out at WW or on the plaza itself, as I never see anyone anywhere else). It'd be nice to play with other people again, but in the past week I've very rarely found any in the past week. What's the busiest server these days? |
As a returning player, you probably already know all about the high number of instances in the games, so you really won't *see* many people congregating anywhere... they're all in the instances, but figured I'd say it just in case.
Many people are dusting off their level 50's to gather incarnate shards. That probably makes the lower-level zones seem even less populated, so I can't stress enough how helpful the Search and Global channels are. Global channels are a far better way to find who's online, where, and what's going on. Liberty's got several that are heavily populated. I lurk in the LB and LFA ones.
If you're looking for casual social roleplaying, Virtue would be the natural choice, but other than that, I can't think of many places where you'll easily just stumble over other players to spontaneously join.

have you joined lb yet? if you get on lb and are polite(or at least funny) you should find some fairly active teaming.
