One more question that TownHall raised:

[Uriah Heep]

Working from memory here with no ready link to post, so bear with me...

The question was asked, about housing in Malas, and all those wide open huge bare spots. Jeremy replied that marketing was in charge of those areas, for promotion.

My suggestion is this...do another Malas castle giveaway! Take the existing active playerbase, (surely they can do an account search and see which ones have been logged into in the last 30 days) and do a random drawing to finish giving those away. Iirc, there were to be six given away per shard...finish that project off the way it was designed!

At least this way, there will be actual closure on one of the many projects/events/promotions hanging around.

Or instead of just give it away for nothing, give it to legitimate bug/exploit reporters. One thing to keep in mind, exclude the 15 day trial account from eligible candidates. We know that for some reason, there have been a surge in trial account openning lately.

So basically nobody is in charge of these areas.

But if that was the reward, what I am afraid of, is you would have the sploiters themselves, turning in rinky-dink sploits and hacks that don't amount to much, to get a castle to sell.

Marketing was in charge. What we actually announced was that we've stolen those areas back, and will be putting them to good use in the comparatively near future.

If the bugs/exploits "don't amount to much", the report may not qualify for the top reward (castle). It will be determined by dev.

Exactly which open areas are you talking about?
