I agree with you Sean. They should be encouraging you to have fun and set up your alliance BUT you have to take into account that players like Nokigon. Kurfist/Clavius Vile and  Selissa the forum spam queen (LOL) are saying the opposite. Nokigon for example is a member of Cave of Knowledge. That alliance  is based not to far from your position. 

Reality is that for some reason they are being negative and may well be hostile and you should take that into account before you make your decision.

What might be helpful now if other bigger alliance leaders posted messages of support for you here in the forum

Good luck

Well good luck in your alliance, I don't approve of someone so little as you founding an alliance, but have at it.

As a new player, you should have your taxes at 0%, or around there.
At your size I would recommend 15% or lower.

Sean, I think I'll have to agree with Kurfist here, it will serve you much better to join an active alliance at this point :)
