A good empire?

[arctik]

Hello there, I have been wanting to join the Planetside community for some time now and finaly once my new computer comes I can. In my wait I have read everything I can about the three empires and everything else I could find.
I have a pretty straight foward question, and I'm positive it will come up with many different answers.

I am stuck in a decision on wich empire to inlist with, I was leaning towards the NC but I really don't know. I was just wondering what you all think is a good empire for beginners to enlist in and learn from. Or one that is easy going and accepts "nubs".

Thanks for your time, can't wait to join some of you on the battle field.
