Backslashes have been slashed!

We've "slashed" through the backslash problem, or so we hope! They've been a problem for a while now, but our excellent coders have been hard at work trying to hammer this particular bug out, and we think it might be gone for good! So, if your usernames haven't been working due to apostrophies and/or quotation marks being in them, try updating your profile information and hopefully everything will show up as it should. :}

We've also noted the problem where news post comments that contain more than one paragraph get smashed together into a single one. We're keeping our fingers crossed that we've resolved this as well.

Many thanks to all of our members for your continued support and patience as we work out all these kinks! <3

Chinese New Year

Good day, lovely Alacrites!


To celebrate the upcoming Chinese New Year, the staff have decided to purchase a Chinese Dragon Marionette Plush to send to one lucky player!


Raffle tickets to win this adorable plush will be available in the monthly shop beggining sometime within the next 24 hours (we will post another news update when they are available, so don`t worry about camping out in the monthly shop) and will remain available for purchase through the evening of Sunday, January 22nd, but as this is a real life toy, there are some rules about entering this raffle:

In order to qualify for the Dragon Marionette Plush, the following requirements must be met:
1.) All entrants must be 13 years of age or older, no exceptions.
2.) Entrants which are over 13, but under the age of 18, will need parental permission to provide shipping information for the prize.
3.) This prize can only be shipped within the United States (I apologize for this; we will find a way to ship to other countries for the next raffle!)

Does one of these rules disclude you from the raffle?
Are you maybe uncomfortable with providing your shipping information?
That`s OK, you can still purchase raffle tickets! We will also be pulling tickets for up to five on-site prizes. More details on these prizes will be included in the post which introduces the raffle tickets to the monthly shop.

Tickets will be an inventory item purchaseable for $25,000 Alacrity Cash, or 1 Bone, from the monthly shop. There will be an icon and an inventory count for each ticket purchased, but these items cannot be used anywhere else on the site. Each ticket will be assigned an individual ID, which will be put into a randomizer program to pull the winners on Monday, January 23rd. After the winners are pulled and prizes awarded, all of the raffle tickets will disappear in preparation for the next raffle :)

There will be no limit on the number of tickets you can purchase, so start saving! Posted by Kaelizilla (#5) on Jan 17, 2012

A wild Rikkie appears!

I'd like to introduce Rikkie, the newest addition to the art team! She's already done two gorgeous new items for the Cash Boutique, the Peacock Mask and Coral Ocean Necklace! Be sure to give her a warm welcome, and expect to see more of her work in the future! :D

On top of that, we have two brand new items in the main shop, T'riffic Toys, and it's about time! We've added the Rubber Chew Toy and Rawhide Bone, and you can look them up in the Item Catalog to see their effects. The inventory artwork was done by our wonderful Kittybot. <3

I am also working on putting together a special free gift for everyone, for sticking with us when Alacrity's code went nutty, so keep your eyes peeled for that! ;D
