06 Jan 2025 - Today Santa returned to his home on Vega. Christmas trees are also gone and cannot be bought from NPCs anymore. Along with these changes, several minor map fixes have been applied (e.g. a missing stalagmite in the dragon lair was re-added, it is now not possible to levitate in that spot).

Re: Nicknames Policy
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 innuendos 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.
