The admin do an amazing amount of work when you contact them with problems. It hasn't gone unnoticed @Oleis how well you pay attention to the playerbase and work to improve things. The other less visible admin as well, anyone that works on the game and helps make it better. The staff are great.
Just to provide examples to prove I'm not just blowing hot air -
Complained that you couldn't turn off voxes because they interfered with web invites. Not only can you now remove them, it's easier to program web triggers around them.
Discussion about firebombs with lessers. They were addressed so team combat involves combat not just AoE nuking each other.
There are tons of other examples and not just from me.... the current admin staff just appear to be paying close attention to the game and not neglecting it like others have done in the past.
This badass seven foot scroll with art from the Legend of Zelda series including all the characters in every game thus far, or what I can only imagine to be all of them, theeeeres so many. Nevertheless got it for 10 dollars out thrifting today, and I am freaking in love.
I love how they included Epona, but as I've played next to none of the games myself and only know the world in passing, who are they seven at the bottom?

I won a shop auction in Spinesreach. I was kind of cranky it cost so much more than I had anticipated going into the auction (475 credits), but I really wanted it so I put my big girl pants on and continued betting. I went to bed not knowing if I had won or not and woke up to this:
Message #1815 Sent By: Denser Received On: 5/20/2014/1:26 "Congratulations on winning the shop auction with a bid of 2,137,500 gold or its equivalent in credits (4500 gold per credit). Please make the necessary payment to the city and the shop will be transferred to you once the payment has been confirmed."
Okay, yay! So I won an overpriced shop. I'm excited but it's also going to wipe my character clean of her last sovereign and then some. (I was going to have to borrow a bit from @Ishin. I hate borrowing from people.)
So I decide instead of borrowing, or trying to cash dump my credits on market to save some money (cause of the horrible credit-gold exchange)... I would just buy the credits from the website (I was only 104 short) and call it a day. I mean, I would never make up the value of the shop but it was for the RP and design outlet anyway, right? And $40 is what I would have spent going out on any of the weekend nights I opted to chill out in front of my computer with you lovely people instead. And I could possibly get something out of the giftbags to help offset the cost of the credits.
giftbags The minor giftbag prize chance is at 1/366. You may claim a free giftbag in 39 minutes. You can purchase a giftbag for 15cr with GIFTBAG PURCHASE. There is currently no big prize in the giftbags.
Oh. Probably not. Oh well.
So I run down the stairs and get my wallet, purchase my credits and get:
Your account has been credited with 110 credits. Huzzah! You've received 10 giftbag(s) for your credit purchase during our Giftbag promotion, containing a random surprise! Check your inventory to find the giftbag and probe it to see what's inside! [INFO]: The minor giftbag prize has just been won! The chance has now reset.
Huh. Did I just win something? I start ruffling through my giftbags and see this:
probe giftbag Thousands of tiny iron rings link together in a flawless pattern of sturdy metal to form the fabric of this heavy giftbag, rattling together at every movement with a noise like falling rain. Skillfully applied colour flows across the face of the bag's surface, forming the carefully rendered shape of a tall, square iron tower with windows and a door that open ominously into an interior concealed by shadow. A thin cord of some surprisingly strong, obscure material forms a drawstring for the bag, ornate little tassels adorning its ends. It has 2 months of usefulness left. It weighs about 22 pound(s). It bears the distinctive mark of Faerah. A heavy iron-link giftbag is holding: "amulet185839" a sulfurous amulet It is holding 1 objects. 28013 gold sovereigns.
Now, I'm not a native Aetolia. I like to consider myself an Achaean refugee. So:
(Web): You say, "What's a sulfurous amulet?" (Web): Ishin says, "Deathcaves." (Web): Ishin says, "Omg did you win." (Web): Ishin says, "!" (Web): You say, "!" (Web): Ishin says, "800cr arti." (Web): Ishin says, ":D." (Web): Ishin says, "Yaaaay today is a good day for you ." (Web): You say, "Oh unicorns. Yay."
So, yeah. Suddenly not minding that I had to pay $40 for my shop. Not really minding the price of the shop either. Not... Minding much at all right now.
Overall: my morning = won. Now let's see if my luck holds over for the rest of the day!
I was just raging out about not being able to be around as much as I thought I would be in the summer, and it does suck, but so far since classes have ended I've spent my time:
1) Seeing Volbeat in concert in Bethlehem PA along with Trivium, and Digital Summer 2) Turning 21 and having a blast with my buddies at the bar on campus at midnight 3) Seeing Seether in concert with Black Stone Cherry and Redlight Kings 4) Watching a World of Outlaws sprint car race at William's Grove Speedway 5) Having an up-till-sunup case race with some of my best friends that stopped down to surprise me at my apartment 6) Acquiring a new job that only takes up 4/5ish hours a month of my time, but subsequently makes rent free
...I kinda love May. Six Flags: Great Adventure trip coming up this Friday (scored a season pass + season parking for $60) too.
Omg @Nola that is an amazing speedpaint, this makes me happy. I am glad I found it, and now I have a little reference behind it. Goodwill sometimes has the most awesome shit.
@Slyphe - I had my 21st in Iraq lol. Glad you had a good 21st btw, how did those e-cig things work out for you? Been thinking hard about getting some and I'm pretty sure I am, next time I get paid.

@Slyphe Bro you've been hitting up all the musical badasses haven't you? I LOVE me some Volbeat, dude.
Volbeat was hands-down one of the best shows I've seen live, and I've been to tons in that same genre.
That was Sad Man's Tongue at the show I saw. If you watch for the bottom-right where the mosh pit starts, that's where I was the whole time! Youtubing 'Volbeat Bethlehem' pulls up tons of videos from that show. Just watching it makes me want to go back
As for the E-cig thing @Ishin it's... a work in progress. It's no cig, that's for sure, but that amount of flavors and stuff if you get one of the refillable ones is incredible. It's even more fun to buy the regular flavors and then play chemist mixing them up for good ones.
EDIT: Volbeat and Five Finger Death Punch will be having a double-headliner tour starting up at the end of summer. I'll be at the show in Reading PA!
I love sitting at home. On my couch. Smoking a cig(but I'm going to try to quit soon, honest!). Watching Conan the Barbarian, and quoting lines from it. Drinking a freaking COKE COLA. YEAH BABY.
...only thing I'm missing is a dog, 'cause my apartment is too small for anything other than a lapdog, and I REFUSE TO OWN ONE.

No joke, @Rashar, that's why my single-digits-percentile memory can manage it
Longest line in the whole fucking movie is when he's praying to Crom, at the end of which he's all like, 'and if you don't listen to me, then to HELL WITH YOU.' except it comes out more like 'DEN TO HELL WITCHOO'

I wonder if the person who produced the scroll paid them for it.

This is the video of that painting being made by the artist. I recognized it, because it is one of my favorite speedpaint videos ever.
