The thing is, those iPhone servers with a decent player count, have a player base which consists mostly of people under the age of 8-9, which doesn't make for very good conversation in my opinion, and their actions are severely annoying at times. Sorry to anyone within this age range, but that's just the observation I've made from my time playing on iPhone servers.

In retrospect, PC servers consist of players that are much older in most cases, and I feel I get on with them far better than any player on an iPhone server, minus a few individuals. However, this may just be me, seeing as I'm a bit older than most iPhone server players I've talked to.

So, in my opinion, if you're looking for decent conversation and intellectual beings (once again, minus a few people), then a gold subscription is worth buying. If you want to develop on Graal, it'd be a good idea to buy a gold subscription as well, unless you want to become an LAT or GAT, then you can probably manage without a gold subscription for the meantime.
