2020 Kudos to Staff!

Post by Good Character » Thu Dec 24, 2020 7:05 pm

It has certainly been a wild ride for the world this year, yet Arelith continues to persist. It always amazes me how I come back to this 18 year old game, but I am never surprised why. Arelith has consistently been a cornerstone of daily enjoyment for me, and the staff really deserves a thanks.

Despite the turbulent year for everyone, thank you for continuing to put in great work!

Thirded! Great job to the DMs, developers, admins, Discord mods, and the big man Irongron. Arelith is a wonderful world to step into for a while and live out our fantasy dreams.

Thanks to all of the staff for keeping Arelith alive and growing, it has been a very appreciated and necessary escape.

I know I'm super biased, but an extra special shout-out to Anatida for all of her hard work this year. Every area you touch just looks divine, even in the confines of this ancient game. And I KNOW how hard you work on each project you take on. We're all so grateful for you! <3

Amazing work. The server looks fantastic and I almost cant believe the amount of arts, maps, fixtures and completed suggestions the staff finished this year. Hats off.

With all of the things that have come to Arelith in 2020, thank you to the amazing DM staff that keeps this place running. We honestly don't get to say it enough, or perhaps we're too tied up in things but Thank you for everything you do for us and this community!!!

It really is the best and despite the fact we may fight and argue at times, please keep up the good work and Hope you all have a very happy christmas!!

I'll echo the thanks above and add this: I'm so ridiculously impressed with how this server has grown. Deep down, I'm not much of a computer gamer, so when I log on after stints of already sparse play, the active players and hardworking devs and DMs make this thriving digital realm feel perfectly preserved; a perfect escape that we needed this year most of all.

I really hope the staff of Arelith understands the magnitude of what they've accomplished and feels the well deserved gratitude from its players. I feel insanely lucky to be able to fire up my old character again!

+1

so much goes on behind the scenes, and the teams are so often overlooked or just criticized, which should never be done.

All the work is done at their time and effort without any compensation other than what we tell them, and for one thing they deserve so much more!!

so beyond Kudos

Well Done across the board, and may the world always be in the good hands of those with time and imagination to keep making it better.

Speaking of Kudos, the updated Outpost looks real pretty! Kudos for the hard work of Bat, Kuma and all other developers and contributors. We will surely put the area to good use.

Definitely going to add to the praise to Arelith staff. You all have a tough job and put so much dedication and energy into making this fantastic world for us all to play in. Thank you so much for all you do, staff! Role playing on Arelith is on par with the highest quality LARPs I've ever been part of, and it scratches my itch for role-playing in a way that no other electronic medium has ever managed to match

Totally. I'm about to get a new computer, not because the one I have now is very lacking for what I need, just because I want to view Arelith in high-graphics mode! :twisted:

Also, one of my favorite things it how it's now a high-magic (item) server that, because of the constant work put in by the Dev's and the rest of the staff, still keep the main focus on character RP and their builds being the most important and powerful pieces of the game-world.
It's all peaches 'n' cake!
