Moderators of death... - Posted on Aug 31 2001, 13:32:52 by Faustus
Moderators have had their ability to play all ships removed in the latest code update. Any servers in which moderators can still choose all ships need to be restarted.
Prestige Wiped... - Posted on Aug 31 2001, 08:45:01 by Faustus
All prestige has been wiped clean from the database, so everyone can begin again at the same level and help us balance the gameplay as much as possbile.
The way prestige is calculated has also changed, making it more fair to those who engage in combat able to progress in rank at the same rate of engineers, support, and transports. Points are no longer awared based on the rank of the other player, but instead is now based on the type of ship.
Moderators still have full access to all available ships and are expected not to abuse the general population in their dreadnaughts. Please report any abuse to rlyle@palestar.com

Prestige Reset - Posted on Aug 30 2001, 16:39:09 by Faustus
The day has finally come, prestige will be reset to ZERO for all user accounts on Friday, 8/31/2001.
The reason for the reset is to get everyone back at the same level, since alot of people are such high ranks because of exploits they found in the early open beta. These exploits have been fixed, and we now need to see how long it takes to move up through the ranks playing the game normally so that it can be balanced.
All players have received 50,000 bonus prestige until the reset, so enjoy.
