I have always said I would not do it, simply because those people that have put in countless hours here have also helped make the server what it is. There was no actual 'beta' phase for testing. It was just a play as you go, and before I released I played through the current available content and made fixes where necessary. I always test my content before hand and ensure things are working as they should be. Most bugs found were mostly from people doing something wrong, or me adding in a safeguard fix so people wouldn't get frustrated.

I have weighed the option of one so people who are actually top end geared don't skip right into the flagging for CoA and such, but this is also the way of the expansions on live. The current top end geared move into the end game, and other people both new and casual have new zones for obtaining slightly better gear easier. I believe this is rightfully so, considering even with all other servers, the introduction of new content you don't see a character wipe.

I realize I never really gave a direct answer, merely giving reasons about why or why not I should do a character wipe, but the fact is I will not. I don't believe in punishing those that have put in the time to reach the areas they have. Nothing has ever been given out, they have all worked for what they have achieved on their own and it should not be taken away.

Only 4 more days until release. I am trying to get together as much stuff as I can possibly get done in the time frame. I am also trying to introduce as many new AAs as I can get in as well, without having to modify the source. I will be attending school for C++ and Java scripting along with database administration starting Saturday as well and going for an associates in applied sciences in Computer Information Systems.

All of this stuff intrigues me so why not make a career out of it? The more I know and learn, the more I can input into my server as well as put back into the community as well. People will just need to bare with me on the amount of content developed will not run as quickly as it once did with me having such a full schedule, but I will do the best of my ability to provide a great place for people to enjoy themselves.

Currently I have added Color Shock, Ancestral Aid, Call of the Wild, Savage Spirit, Crippling Strike, Stunning Kick, Heart of Flames - Ice - Stone - Vapor, Imitate Death, Blood Pact and have many more I know I can implement without needing to delve into the source code. I have also made a fix for the Swarm of Decay necromancer AA to work correctly as well.

Development will continue on as always.
