-June 2, 1998: The Dark Forest East (The area not the page) got way more dark and a lot less east. Relative Directions were installed, meaning instead of east and west it behaves from a first person view (i.e. you go left and right). Many people complained because no change is greeted with 100% agreement. It fits the premise of the area, but some who have yet to grow accustomed to it don't seem to like it. Dentin said in response "I had always envisioned DFE as a place that was really dark and nasty, where the sun never makes it to the forest floor, and where its difficult if not impossible to tell where the hell you are if you lose the path."

-April 29, 1998: Many players got fed up with the sudden craziness over cleaning up gossip to the G Rated point. A greasy little post was made by some little whiny bird. Gossip and Avatars is now over there at that Pit type thing.

-April 26, 1998: The coding for mortal avatars were installed. This followed a long conference debating how the most effective way to alleve the animosity and hatred felt lately on the public channels. Since gods are not always around, and when they are usually have channels off, this should allow better control. Mortal Avatars have the ability to temporarily take a person's gossip, emoting/social ability, and outright silence them.

-April 17, 1998: Clan Dues were lowered to 10+X gold where X is the number of members in the clan. Someone up there must be getting soft on clans...
