There is a new vote up for a little feedback on the Scavenger ability. Be sure to vote. A thread will most likely be created in the Main Forum for a discussion on it.

I would also like to remind everyone of a few things.

1) I am the Lead Volunteer Helper (VH). Meaning any actions that my VH take that you feel are unjust or unwarranted should be reported directly to me via in game messages. Side chat is not the place to air out your grievances against them as that is against the HCS ToS as Staff Harassment and it will be handled as such.

2) Mods and Guides are lead by the Community Admins. In this case, Wolf and Neltharion. Anything that goes on with Mods or Guides goes to Wolf or Neltharion before me. If the person in question feels they were treated unfairly, they can just as easily come to me and ask me to look into something.

3) The conduct on side chat is progressively getting worse. This is due to things not being reported. My VH and myself cannot be on 24/7. That is why all 5 of us have an "open message box" type of policy. We have no problems handling a situation that is deemed inappropriate, whether it be abuse, harassment, or just flat out toxic behavior.

Please keep these things in mind for in the future.

Just a quick reminder to everyone because myself and my Community Admins have grown weary of fixing this. Swearing in the forums is not allowed. Just because you are able to disable the filter for Side Chat does not mean that those rules do not apply to the forums.

If you absolutely must swear, then star it out yourself.

Double Gains is now live until approximately 7AM May 15.

For those confused as to what this means, that means the same as last time Double Gains was live.

To be more specific:
-Double energy (400/hr)
-Double job payout (per job)
-Double item xp gain
-Double xp from fights (PVP and Hunting)
-Double WFP gains
-Double xp from honing

And because I'm sure it is a question: various plat boosts will stack as well, such as the Energy Boost (so you get 440 energy/hr)

Also, I am not sure if this includes drop rates and ability points. I will ask Aldo for clarification on this.

Since it has been a burning question, I figured I would clarify so everyone could be put at ease.

Double Gains will start at approximately 2~4AM server time May 13. It will then last until 6AM server time May 15.

And for anyone curious as to the wide range for when it will start: sometimes I get out of work early, sometimes I don't on Friday. Either way, it will be started at 4AM server time at the latest.

See you then!
