Hope everyone had a great holiday and brought the new year in in a fantastic way.

So as some of you might have seen earlier when asking for a motivated volunteer, something new is available to the VH.

15:04 [ View ] Will has silenced Zach temporarily.
15:09 [ View ] Will has silenced Zach temporarily.
15:10 [ View ] Will has unsilenced Zach.

The simple version is: this is a new tool available to VH that can prohibit someone from seeing and/or using the side chat (gang chat still works as that is a gang affiliated chat), forums (public only), and chat channels (again, public only).

The extended version is the above but includes: A silence can last anywhere between 1 hour to 24 hours. The purpose is to try and de-escalate a situation before it gets out of hand without resorting to a disfavor that includes debuffs to the player.

I will be going over expectations and appropriate times to use said tool with the other VH so it does not get abused or used incorrectly.

Hope you all have a fantastic day.

Oh it's been a while since I've done one of these. Mostly because I haven't had anything that really needed to be posted for everyone. Until now.

Due to various circumstances, Wolf is no longer part of the VH team. He has been part of my team for a really long time and his assistance will be missed.

And shifting gears, I don't believe I will be taking any VH apps at this time with it being so close to the holidays so a lot of people are not fully paying attention to what's going on with Legacy.

Stay safe, have fun, and a Happy Holidays to all.

I did not forget about the apps and the new VH. However, due to the sheer number that I received it was a much more difficult decision than normal. So I wanted to sit down and really go over everything to see who would potentially be the best fit. And after about 2 whole weeks, I think I have reached that decision.

Again, this was actually a really difficult decision to reach since every app sent to me was unique in its own way and was well thought out. However, the two (yes, two, not just one) who will be joining the Volunteer Helper team will be Pie and Matt (currently known as OC3rdPlace and will have his name forcefully changed).

The positions for the VH will be changing a little bit, but overall nothing will ultimately change.

Wolf has been with me the longest and is typically on the same thought process as myself. Not only this but he has often been referred as my #2 for a while. So he will officially be listed as the Assist Lead VH

Connor will take up a new title while still overseeing Community related issues. Which include the forums and clans still.

Pie and Matt will receive their official assignments in the near future once I get them fully setup.

Thanks to everyone who applied for this position.

First things first: I would like to thank Aaron for his time and service as a VH. He will no longer be with us, but he is still appreciated.

Second: I have decided that it is high time that Legacy Affairs be brought back as a service available to players if they feel that VH are abusing their powers and that it is not being properly handled, they can contact a member of Legacy Affairs (LA) to look into it.

LA can be requested to look into a situation if a player feels that a VH's action or inaction to a situation was not properly handled. This can be done either directly to a member of LA or via the tickets system by request.
