    Hello, Antaresians!

    It's about ten minutes to midnight here in the east coast, and that means it's ten minutes until the END of Antares 1-year anniversary.
    Better late than never, eh?

    Yes, Antares has officially been alive for ONE WHOLE YEAR!
    Like, whoa! I never thought we'd come this far, but I'm glad we have.
    I want to thank all of you who've stuck around with us through thick and thin. I really appreciate that loyalty. Thank you! You're fantastic. We've had our ups and downs, but we've managed to survive and we'll continue to do so.
    There's lots of things planned for the 1.0 update and I feel like we've got a long life ahead of us and much more roleplay to be had.
    It's a bit late to celebrate, but we can do so nonetheless.

    I have a question, though.
    There's been some consideration in creating our own lore based on the vanilla lore, but with some additions to the setting to make Antares really stand out as it's own place in space.
    My question to you is: Would that be something you would support? Answer below!

    Anyway,
    Happy Anniversary Antares!

    Please do not turn this thread into an argument to who is right and who is wrong, we only want ideas and a list of goals to achieve for our 2nd year of role playing in Antares and for the upcoming update. Thank you!

    I mean, it really depends. The community should hear whatever ideas you have, and then we can decide on whether or not it should be added. We shouldn't stray beyond minor additions, though.

    Time sure flies when you're not around for half of it.
    Never the less, to the good health of Antares (as I drink summer fruits drink at 5am because I don't need sleep)!

    I would love to see this. With 1.0 supposedly coming out next month it would be a good time to do this.

    I want my time spent here back.

    Jokes aside:
    This. I would like to hear what do you guys have in mind before we discus the lore.

    Yes, please allow Starbound lore factions to come into Antares. We could have moderators controlling the factions to make sure they stay true to what they are.

    I'm fresh from October, and I haven't been able to get on since last night, but I do hope everybody is having fun for the anniversary!
    Also, about the lore;
    Yes.

    While I agree with having lore-based factions on the server again, I'm not sure that having moderators run it really makes a difference. I'd say any trustworthy member of the community should be able to run a faction as big as one based on lore.

    No player character should "RUN" the factions though. These would only be small sub-divisions of the main lore factions requiring orders from higher up the chain of command (a moderator NPC that could issue rules or orders from the sub-forum).

    Regarding factions, I think that it should be planned out for a month, and come up with planned-out scenarios, you know, so we know nothing will--
    But hey, let's remember what this thread is for; HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

    That custom lore idea might help tons with the potential rp consent problems that new updates will bring. All for it. 100%

    Details regarding specific ideas as pertaining to the addition of custom lore won't be revealed here as they are not yet finalized.
    Such ideas will be revealed to the community for feedback in their own threads as they mature.
    For now, you'll have to give feedback on the concept itself. If you're uncertain, that can be your feedback! It's not a simple yes/no question.
