No more spam!

Sun, 15 Jan 2012 22:39:00 +0000

I've never been a fan of captchas but to help fight off the ever increasing fake accounts/spam bots I've added a captcha to the website registration process. That should more or less put a complete stop to the issues we've been having. Unless of course there are any active accounts that were made before the captcha was put in place, although I'm 95% sure I've banned them all.

Update!!

Moar News

Tue, 04 Oct 2011 03:11:00 +0100

Good evening Redmooners! I have news and progress to report! First the progress: GMRaven has setup a test server. Currently the RMC database (less player details/items/characters) is being ported to the test server. My self, GCSkylark, and GMCygnus will all have access to it to modify it and test out experimental ideas. Up next are the new staff scripts and policy changes. After the scripts are in place just about every staff member will be able to address any support email. In other words we will begin to honor the 24 hr turn around response time or you'll receive a free sun orb (via the new staff scripts!).

In other news I will be moving 1,000 miles way from home for a new job (with a raise of 65%). Although I will be very busy this will not deter me from assisting GMRaven in expediting the work that lays ahead.

Stay tuned!

Side Note: See that white box to the left? Your other left. It isn't an ad; it is a support chat room. If you need some immediate assistance msg us there. Please be patient with the system, sometimes it is slow and takes a few moments to process the messages.

Update

Wed, 21 Sep 2011 03:09:00 +0100

Hello Redmooners!

I just wanted to update all of you on what is going on behind the scenes. As GMRaven promised, we are working to bring you a better Redmoon Classic experience. GMRaven is currently working to bring online a stable, permanent test server for everyone to play on and for the staff to experiment with. The first major modification to the test server will be to implement the ladder style battle dimension. This will take time. Also in the works are new scripts which will empower the entire staff to assist players in virtually any situation. This too will take time.

Lastly, we will be changing the way we operate. The Players Record will be changed to Staff Logs. All staff decisions which involve a player (not just punishments) will be posted in the logs. Our goal is to be more transparent to players and thus more involved with the community.

Happy Hunting!

Auction Items

Sun, 04 Sep 2011 20:42:00 +0100

Hey RMCers,

The RMC staff wants to apologize in dropping the ball. I understand that many of you have been waiting a very long time for the items you won at the auction.

I'm going to be personally handling the issue from this point forward.

If you have yet to receive your auction items please email me directly at gmraven@redmoonclassic.com with a subject of "Action Items"

In the email please include the items you won at the auction that you haven't received along with the name of the character you won them with.

I'll do a quick verification and then send your items out.

I again want to apologize for this mishap and want to thank you for your patience.

We're currently in the process of revamping our player support pipeline and will be working hard to renew your faith in us to serve you in a timely manner.

Upcoming Server Maintenance and Shapeshift Event!

Thu, 18 Aug 2011 00:00:00 +0100

Hey RMCers!

This Sunday (8/21) around 3pm PST, Redmoon Classic will be taken offline for routine maintenance. The downtime isn't expected to take longer then an hour but could last up to three hours if needed.

If you have any questions feel free to leave them in the comments.

Updated to reflect different day!

Also for those of you who didn't notice, we're in a shapeshift!

To join:
Type !!!shapeshift ingame, or go to http://www.redmoonclassic.com/beta/shapeshift/

If you have any questions, comments, etc, hit the forums!

It's that time again! AUCTION!

Wed, 06 Jul 2011 22:08:00 +0100

Everyone put on your fastest boots, because it's time for another auction event! Tickets are dropping now!
Do your best to collect as many tickets as possible!
The auction date has not yet been decided, but it will be announced once it has been decided. Care for a specific day? Let us know!
(Tickets will drop for no less than two weeks)

For those of you who may not know, an auction event is this:
For the duration of the ticket drop period, collect as many as possible.
On a decided day, we will hold a public auction, ingame, where you can bid against fellow players for items.
Items include (but are not limited to):
Ringsets, Freshbreeze, Selion, Tamas, Unique Weapons, Chambers, Sunsets, AND MANY MORE!

Feeling weak? Can't compete against people your level? This is your chance to turn your luck around!

Also note, this time we are trying something new with the auction. Ticket items will be bound to your accounts! You can only transfer tickets to accounts that share the same email address. This is to prevent people from simply buying all the available tickets for cheap, and walking away with a majority of the auction items.

Don't miss it!!!
~Cygnus

Server Up

Sat, 07 May 2011 22:21:00 +0100

The server up, and the patch is live. We're working on getting patch notes together for the public.
We will be fine tuning and tweaking a few things based on player input. Please let us know if anything odd happens, or if you have any input on the newest changes. Patch notes and new ranking pages will be up as soon as we can.
If you have any questions, check the thread on the forums! We'll be explaining anything that is unclear.

Event Announcement!

Wed, 20 Apr 2011 00:10:00 +0100

Because you demanded it, it's Event Season!
Get your Shapeshifting boots on, because it's that time again!
To shapeshift, go to the website here:
http://www.redmoonclassic.com/beta/shapeshift/
Or simply type !!!shapeshift ingame.

If you have any questions, comments, concerns, catch one of the staff ingame on here on the forums.

One last note, there will be a special prize going out at the end of the event. I'm not going to reveal the conditions for winning (that would take the fun out of it!), but you definitely don't want to miss this one!

~Cygnus

Edit: Since we have a few Shapeshift first timers around, here's some more info on Shapeshift.

If you log out of the game, and go to the website (linked above), it will reset your stats to 10-10-10-10 as well as change your character and honor. Make sure you log out somewhere safe!
If you use !!!shapeshift ingame, you will be able to change your character, but you won't see it until you change maps (at the very least).

Barring any major occurrences, Shapeshift will be ending this weekend, and the patch will be implemented as previously planned. The server will be down for several hours while we make the necessary changes. Expect downtime Saturday around 12:00 Noon PST. This will be a pretty massive update, so don't miss it!

Reboot Tonight!

Tue, 22 Mar 2011 00:02:00 +0000

Later tonight, the server will be going down for a reboot to resolve some issues, and to end the double experience event. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Double Experience!!!

Fri, 25 Feb 2011 09:00:00 +0000

That's right, we're now having a double experience event. Tell your friends, pass this message along and enjoy the extra hours of grinding before it's over! Keep your eyes opened for future mini-events.

Mini Events

Thu, 24 Feb 2011 00:13:00 +0000

GCGriffin and I will be holding random mini-events in the coming days. In the meantime, we are seeking advice from the community on what they feel would be fun for all (and reasonable, these are MINI after all :))... And for those whose ideas are used, you will automatically receive a prize of sorts.

Donation Tokens

Wed, 02 Feb 2011 00:00:00 +0000

Donation Tokens are now live! When you make a donation to the server, you'll now receive donation tokens as our thanks for your support!

Take your donation tokens to the donation trader (currently in TV Studio 1, which can be accessed from Street 3) and redeem them for sunsets!

New Event: Design A Shop!

Wed, 12 Jan 2011 01:34:00 +0000

First things first, I would love to personally thank the Staff for their latest efforts, especially with the auction. Without them, especially Eagle, it would not have went so smooth!

Introducing a NEW EVENT

We are in the process of launching a NEW Item Shop! When the store launches (very shortly), you will donate for Donation Tokens, a new item that is the currency used in our New Trader!

(The regen necklace is for size comparison.)

The new Donation Trader is sad. He doesn't have a house to live in yet! He walks around all day long in TV Studio 1, wondering where he will live.
Will you help him?

Event Details:
Design a new map! It's as easy as that. Draw stick figures on a napkin, show off your mspaint skills, and dazzle the staff with your design!

* We are looking for a small map, around the same size as other store maps, but if you come up with a good medium-sized design, we may be able to accomidate.
* Send all entries to support@redmoonclassic.com, and list the title as "EVENT - Map Design Entry"
* Please limit your entries to three.
* Judging will take place the last week of January by current staff members.
* The winning design will be developed into a new map, and launched on RMC!

On a side note, we are hiring those interested in developing maps. Please inquire with support.
