Dear Players,

unlike with cheating, we haven't been particularly firm regarding the nicknames. Appreciating the players' ingenuity and their sense of humour, we took action only in extreme cases. However, the creativity of some of the players led us to realize that ingenuity can also take some wrong turns, which is why we recently decided to re-evaluate our policy. For starters, we've applied more than 400 namelocks, mostly on nicknames that were offensive, vulgar, inappropriate, and/or included sexual innuendoes or hidden propaganda. We hope that this should cool some people's creative fire.

Namelock is supposed to be an inconvenience that should help people make more reasonable choices regarding character naming, which should not violate the rules. But since it would require free and unlimited name changes, some players might even welcome it. This, in turn, could lead to a quite opposite result, i.e. more players might choose inappropriate nicknames in order to be able to change them later. To avoid such a negative effect, we deployed a new tool and procedure - some namelocks (depending on the severity of inappropriateness) will only allow the player to select the new name from our name generator. The tool will also be available for use (optionally, of course) when creating a new character, which we hope will be of help to those whose creativity is not so active in this particular area.

Dear Players,

since the very first announcement of Tibiantis, we've heard too many times that this could not succeed. The atmosphere of defeatism became even more dense after the unexpected difficulties that we had had to face during the launch on April 4, 2020. However, despite the strong and somehwat reasonable doubts, many players have eventually taken a chance on trusting us. Today is the third anniversary of that difficult yet memorable event! Having entered the soul vortex, almost 40.000 adventurers have already set foot in the land of Tibiantis. Moreover, less than two months ago, you broke the record for the number of online characters. We would like to take this opportunity, therefore, to thank you all for that trust that you've placed in us. It gives us huge satisfaction to be able to share with all of you the joy of being a part of this wonderful community and continuously improve Tibiantis!



This does not mean, however, that the difficulties and negative voices are all in the past. The battle for creation never ends! Just like in the previous year, our jubilation wakes the forces of evil into frenzied scheming to wreak havoc on Tibiantis. We are frightened out of our wits at the mere thought of what they might have contrived this time. We would rather this remained only speculations, but alas, we will all probably bear witness to their wicked machinations very soon... So you'd better be on your guard!

Whatever their plans though, they cannot thwart ours - to invite you all to celebrate Tibiantis's third anniversary at Frodo's on April 16 at 19:00 CEST (10 hours after server save). Rejoice!
