Bi-Weekly Update #2
Posted Image


So, we've had the actual server up and running for about three weeks now! *Insert general applause and celebration here*.

Here's a party hat!
Spoiler: click to toggle


Anyways! Let's get down to business!

Staff Rank Updates! Most of you probably noticed. The staff ranks have changed. After the removal of McCartan and Angel from the staff (I'm not going into detail on this one. If you really feel the need to understand why it happened, feel free to PM me and I can send you an explanation) we updated the way the staff ranks function. The Loremaster rank was removed, the Community Manager rank instated, and the Gamemaster Rank Re-purposed. With this update also came the addition of the forum moderator rank. This rank isn't actually staff, but it's also not a player. It's meant to be a responsible player (or two) who are willing to give up time to keep the forums active and police them when necessary. They're more or less just given a little extra responsibility. So, if you have any questions about the forums, they're who you'd need to go to. Gamemaster now deals with lore as well as regulating, and creating roleplay as well as just generally being around. Community Manager is more there too solve OOC disputes and moderate everything in general. This new system allows for overlap between the staff ranks as well. For example, Ereshkigal is likely going to focus on creating RP, and Deadsoviet (despite being a CM) will still be focusing on applications as well as doing the OOC dispute solving. lilGambit has also been moved to CM, as you guys likely noticed.

A New Developer! So, we have a new staff member! Everyone say hi to Perky. Perky was the dev on a previous server of mine, and he's quite good at his job. So, everyone play nice. He's here to help. I'll let him introduce himself because he should be the one to say hi to y'all.

Staff Applications?!? Yes! This is happening! With Angel and Kris gone we felt that we were understaffed. And with the new ranks we decided that we would open up staff applications!

We will be taking 1 Gamemaster and 1 Community Manager. You can apply here!

We're also taking 2 Forum Moderators! As explained previously, this is a new rank here! This is really best suited for those of you who are very active on the forums! You can apply here!

Play to your strengths guys! Thanks for baring with us through all of these staff related changes! It means a lot. If anything needs clarifying, go ahead and PM me. It's no problem. I understand that this can be a lot to process. If for some reason I am unable to reply, I'll have another staff member do it. Thanks!

Event Spotlight! As opposed to spotlighting the contriversial Tirisfal Glades event, I'm going to go ahead and just talk a little about the amazingly fun impromptu Deathknell mini event I ran the other day. Basically some Scourge decided to attack Deathknell. It was a small raiding party of some skeleton warriors, but since we were using rolls, it was a tough fight. For some reason the last two skeletons were more or less impossible to kill. They rolled like a 100/100 twice in a row, and then like three or four rolls in the 90's before that. They took out Veredux's character Urich and knocked him unconscious as well as knocking God's character Romeo relatively far away. It was pretty fun, mostly because of the OOC frustration. Tony's character and my character managed to finally kill of the last two skeletons and end the event. Which took like, two hours. Which was dramatically longer then we expected.

So, if you guys wish to have an event or RP that you thought was fun spotlighted in an update thingy, go ahead and PM me. The point of this is just to remind some of the more pessimistic people out there that RP really is about having fun, in the end. And that events really can be fun, albeit frustrated fun at times.

Closing! So, yeah. Just a quick closing note. I am still "deving" away at the forums, and you can expect several smaller changes throughout the next coming weeks. You can check out my last update to see what I've been working on. My next update should be posted on the 25th, which is a real Wednesday. I hope you guys are liking these. Please actually comment with your thoughts this time. It means a lot. Because I put atleast two hours of work into these posts because I'm a perfectionist. Thanks guys!

Technically the Lich King killed the adventurers and planned to raise them into the most powerful Death Knights the world had ever seen, but then Tirion He-Mans out of the ice and cleaves Frostmourne.
