May & June 2012 News!

Xmas in July!

Our annual Xmas in July gift exchange is back for another fun-filled summer! Go to the contest's topic to learn more about the exchange and how to participate! Smile Have fun, everyone -- and remember to fill out the forms completely, and to make sure you get your partner's set finished before the deadline is due!


NPC Page Revamp

We revamped the NPC page to list the various types of NPCs along with short descriptions for each one. It was put on a completely separate page from everything else due to all of the information that we wanted to include; we added more detailed information about temporary NPCs and other types of NPCs as well. c: If you haven't seen it yet, we encourage you to check out our NPC Procedures page!


FAQ Revamp

Check out our FAQ revamp! It's fancy. o: Better than the organizational revamp, many new questions have been added, and older answers have been updated.


Wiki Revamp

The Wiki Guidelines have been updated and revamped throughout much of the Wiki. O: Hopefully, this will help members update it some more! June has been a super-busy month on the wiki thus far -- let's make July even better! O:


Vinátta

We welcomed our newest pack to the board, Vinátta, led by Saul Stormbringer (Honey) and Lilin Soulstorm (Ama)! More information about this new pack can be found on their website and new pack forum.


Sangi'lak

Shortly thereafter, we welcomed another new pack to the board, Sangi'lak, led by X'yrin Exultare (Zyn) and Jaden Ohanzee (Jaden)! More information about this new pack can be found on their website and new pack forum.


Forum Index Edits

Down at the bottom of 'Souls forum index, there's now a few new links: you can view the all time top posters or just today's top posters, along with the game stats (this was always there ;D) and the member search! Hope they help!


Skin!

We have a new skin, all bright and spring colors! Enjoy!


Behind the Scenes

Behind the scenes, we've made some updates, too!


In the 'Souls Assemblage, we've recently gone through a major reorganization of our 'SA forums. o: Hopefully, this will help us stay more organized in the future!


In the Moderators team, we've recently introduced various new procedures for "usual" infractions -- improper absentees, OOC posts in the IC forums, etc. Now, moderators will be able to assist us with some of the more basic oopses.


For the Leaders we've finally released a survey most of the leaders took, providing some answers for some situations where a leader might have to take action! Hopefully this will help all leaders understand their duties and responsibilities!


Incoming!

Unfortunately, that's about it for the new updates. Sad The 'SA has been busy as of late with various projects that aren't quite ready to be released yet:


  • Some new Luperci sizing information.
  • Lots and lots of stuff for leaders: lots of changes and updates to the leaders' handbook, and other informational updates.
  • Updates to our pack formation procedures.
