MAY
Written by SirEraze


Woah! look! It's time for the monthly post. May I? *makes really bad joke about the month May*

Hello, hello, hello! Guess who? Could it be AUZombie, could it be Gamerbabe? No. Its just me, silly old Eraze!
Another amazing month in the land of Fruit, what can i say? Everyone in this community continues to impress me, and the growth of the server is still such a shock. I know i say this on behalf of the team every month, but, thank-you! So many cool things happened this month, most that you are likely aware of. Firstly though, Easter! What a great Easter, and what better way to spend it than eating chocolate with all you Fruit heads! I would also like to thank all of those who purchased our very first Event Kit. These will most likely be happening for all of the major world events, and will be a nice chance to get some limited edition stuff that you can keep for ever! As well as this, we also saw plenty of new plugins from our amazing Developer OhBlihv. Don't worry, he isnt done just yet!

So, like always, i will try to keep this post as detailed as possible without boring you to death, and i will highlight all the key things that we will be talking about. Hope you enjoy!


NEWS -

Players and Donations

Like every month, we have once again been stormed with new players, and donors to keep the server going. Last month we celebrated 4000 players, and guess what? Now we have 5750.. I know right. Anyway, keep up the amazing work, get all your friends online, and make sure you are nice and friendly to all the new players.

Forums

Some of you may have already seen, but our Head-Mod _Entei_ has been reworking the forums, and working his absolute best to make it more interactive, and fun for everyone. Some things that have already been added are; Forum Awards, Milestones, Weekly topics and games and much more. So a big thanks to our main man Entei for being the new Head of the forums, and make sure you get involved!

Staff

Like most months, we have once again made some changes to the Staff roster. We are going to try and bring in at least one new member a month, until we dont need any more. We have spruced up the application, and will be making further changes. So if you seriously consider yourself someone who is fit to be on this growing team, make sure you send in an application!

Staff changes are:
MOD EZ420, MOD Fledge, HEAD-MOD _Entei_ and TRIAL-MOD TiaTree. Welcome to the team Tia, and congratulations to all the other members who have been promoted!


Thank-you to these top voters of April. Voting is one of the key ways that we get new users on the server, and we are amazed with the amount of support we are getting!

ATTENTION
This months building competition didn't go quite as we planned. The theme we chose was Outerspace, and it seems a lot of users weren't interested in this. Because of the lack of interest, we only ended up with 5 entries. And out of these 5 entries, only about 3 had actual time and effort put into them. We understand this theme may not have been for everyone, but it is still quite disappointing. Because of this, we have postponed the Razer mouse give away for the month of May, where we will be picking a more suitable them, and changing up the rules a little to hopefully get some more people involved. Instead of giving away the mouse, we have stuck to the original store vouchers.
