While the token economy has functioned well, the gold economy has started to get out of hand. Staff is looking at that and taking steps to bring the gold economy back into line. The Animal Lore clothing (sash, apron and robe) can now be dyed [per player request]. The round lamppost crafted via the FireRock tool can now be moved once created. There was an error int the end date for the tFc event. You have until 2pm (shardtime) on Sunday the 22nd to turn in your bag.

Gold drops at champs has been tweaked. The system will no longer collect the gold from the monster levels and drop it when the champ boss appears. You are still free to [grab gold if you wish. The FireRock book now bonds to the one who picks it up.

A new crafting system has arrived in WP! Only those of the highest skill in mining and blacksmithing can work this new Firerock, mined directly from lava pools. Beware - it is guarded by powerful elementals who treasure their molten material. Approach them with caution! Once prepared you can craft weapons, armor, and items never seen before. Get more details from the forum post called "Firerock crafting has come to WP!"

Many thanks Falkor! The archery system has finally been fixed and the bowstrings now act as they were intended. They will break, better stringers have less breakage chance and the damage bonus for them now works! Falkor will post in the forums with more information on the fixed system.

There have been several reports lately of players barging in and taking over champs that other players were working. We do not tolerate this type of behavior in the Pines. Per the rules "When out hunting/mining/lumbering and you encounter another player(s) working a spawn, be polite and do not intrude on that player(s). If you wish to stay, ask the player(s) if you may, and if they say yes, wait your turn. Otherwise, seek activity elsewhere and return later." If you come across a champ spawn, it is your job to ascertain whether or not there are player(s) there already working it. If you do start working it, and then discover that it is already begin worked, you can ask if you can stay. Only if the working player(s) agree can you stay, otherwise, you must leave and seek adventure elsewhere.
