    Hey, everyone.

    On Thursday May 15th, at 11AM EST, there will be some downtime while the server is being worked on. During the maintenance, we're going to be looking into optimizing a number of backend features that may not directly affect the community but will make things easier and more convenient for Staff. Estimated downtime is two hours.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    But don't worry. The reason the forum will be down is to get some maintenance done on it, as well as some improvements.

    The maintenance has concluded. There weren't any issues overall, just some delays towards the end due to testing.
    Also, the forum trophies have been overhauled but are subject to change. The title ranks are the same, but go in this order:
    • Scavenger
    • Scout
    • Pioneer
    • Outrider
    • Vanguard
    • Seeker
    • Wanderer
    • Adventurer
    • Trailblazer
    • Universalist
    • Grand Achiever (attained only by unlocking all trophies)
    Everyone's trophy point count should have been reset and all donation-related trophies were removed.
    On that mark, the donation tiers were lowered to be more reasonable and everyone's banners should have been shifted accordingly.

    EDIT: You can find the current list of trophies here.

    If you encounter any issues with these changes, please notify me.
    Thanks.

    Yes. The entire trophy system was changed around. Pointless ones were removed and point values were dropped drastically. However, the requirements for each title was also dropped down. Some of the old trophies are still around, however a number of them have had their point value dropped to 0.
