In this new blog series, I’d like to talk about how some features, events, or other admin work comes to pass and what sort of time is involved in making it happen. The latter is intended as the focus of the series as that particular facet of admin work is often nebulous and hard to…

The aethergoop change is here, it is time to sunset that entire system. From this post onwards, the vast majority of aethergoop changes have been rolled out as mentioned in Updates posts #2 and #3. We will now be updating the help files and preparing to add treasure map and genies curios to the artifact…
