Site Update
I'm sure you missed my pretty blue face, and I know Aywas is an awful bore without my glorious updates (
The last few weeks have been extremely busy for us behind the scenes, filled with lots of late nights, too much coffee, and plenty of monitor shaking. The good news? Is that we've made bucketfuls of progress and that every setback or issue that arises points us to a better track for the future. We really appreciate you guys sticking it out with us and for how overwhelmingly supportive and patient you have been! As players ourselves, we know it sucks not to be able to play a game you love to its fullest extent, but we think it's important to take the time to focus on healing our beloved Aywas. <3
With that being said, there are a couple quick things that I want to highlight!
Namely, missing/lost accounts. This is a pesky hurdle for us, but an absolute priority, and I will hopefully have a more detailed update on this front soon. What I can tell you is that we will do our best to compensate these users and make them feel as welcome as we can once their account actually exists and they can rejoin the community.
What you might not know is that because of this lost account issue, we have been unable to accept any new registrations since the downtime. If we were to accept new users, it would essentially overwrite the accounts that went missing. Once we get everything smoothed over, I am going to need your help in welcoming a huge wave of brand new players to our humble floating world!
As you might have suspected, things on the day-to-day and event fronts have been at a standstill because a lot hinges on these missing accounts, and we don't want to start running a bunch of events or adding content to the site while 1) there's a good number of people who would miss out through no fault of their own and 2) Yasu's energies need to be focused on repair. I mention this because I know the Valentine's event has been on everyone's mind this month, so I wanted to let you know that the current plan is to hold off on things for a little longer, but hopefully get the love fest going before the end of February. Once we get things going, they'll really be going. XD
We are going to kick off /one/ thing in a few moments, so stay tuned!
Thanks again for being your awesome, badarion selves!

Actually, I /really was/ missing your posts *w* I thought AyStaff was busy due to solving the problems the downtime caused, but good to know that it was... well, less serious, if I can say this way >w<

oh... stupid me XD mixed the two new posts, lol~ Anyways, thanks for the awesome job, guys! Most sites I know don't really care about showing with such transparency the problem to the users. It's very good to know you guys care about your fans <3

Thank you for the update and hard work. <3 I think my dream career would be coffee brewer and server for petsite staffers. Never would be out of a job.

You guys have been working so hard on getting the site back up and running. So, as a thank you from one small random player to all of you guys, I send a gigantic bear hug! We love all of you!! <3
