Adventure Changes
Site Update
As you may or may not have noticed, today a few changes were made to the EXP system for Aywas in the hopes to make the system a bit more enjoyable and feasible for future ideas/projects with Adventure.
One of the changes is that you should be seeing more EXP from battles, which should make it easier to reach the next level. Note however, that the first few levels (1-12) may experience an increase to battles needed in order to level, but if this needs to be altered more, we will be looking into it. (Baby steps!)
Another change you should see is status ailments should be able to be resisted now if you have the right item/resistance requirement. For example, an Anti-Freeze should be properly anti-freezing your pets. As of now, Poison Gem and Anti-Freeze Potion are functioning correctly only. We'll be going through the items/weapons/armor and fixing each one accordingly.
Not all changes are fully implemented yet and numbers may still be tweaked.
Please post any feedback or issues you experience on this feedback thread run by our staff!

Final push!
Items
It's time for a final push for the Carolina Raptor Center! The contest they're in only lasts for 22 hours more -- are you ready to take the challenge to make them first place?
CLICK HERE TO VOTE!
And here's a link to the contest!
Come join Altheora's contest -- the more you vote, the better prizes you get! But that's not all... we're going to be donating a bunch of prizes to her voting contest, so you'll get even BETTER prizes! And the best prizes if the charity gets first!
If you covet items like these, participate in her voting contest and the higher placing the charity gets in the contest, the better prizes are available.
If we, as a site, can get the charity into first place... then you can expect a Silverpaw Balloon in the Advent Calendar on the 18th or 19th to celebrate the power of Aywas!!

Terms of Service Update
Site Update
We have updated our Terms of Service to reflect the fact that Aywas now uses AdSense to serve advertisements (section: Privacy Policy). At the moment we have one ad, which will show at the bottom of the page, but one will be added to the left side as well.
Following the recent PBC discussion, we came to a conclusion: the users understandably do not want to pay more for breeding coins, but the artists want to be paid more. As a result, we came up with a way to pay artists more without raising the price of coins--serving advertisements that help bridge that financial gap. You can read more about this discussion here.
Aywas is committed to blacklisting ads that are offensive or behave in ways that aggravate or diminish the player's experience. To report an advertisement, go to this thread in the Help forums and we will investigate the situation and block the ad if needed.
By starting our ad serving now, we'll have a half month to see how much revenue we can expect from this, and can better inform our artists what to expect in terms of ad-paid bonuses monthly.
