Rule 9 is removed and is now a part of rule 4, rule 3 is changed and players are now able to warp to their elemental capital!
Dear players,
We would like to announce a couple of changes to the rules for more clarification and for a little more freedom to the players.
First of all, we are removing rule 9 "Do not join or ally towns/nations for the purpose of betraying them in any way, shape or form". The rule caused a lot of confusion to many of our players and we feel like rule 4 "Do not grief for the sake of causing grief (in town protected chunks)" already involves everything we tried to achieve with rule 9. In general: if you break or steal anything in/from a town, you may be punished.
Next, we want to clarify our policy regarding rule 3 "Do not pollute the landscape (keep the map pretty)."It is already common knowledge that sky bases are not allowed. Sky bases are builds that are floating in the sky or builds that are attached to the ground by for example just one dirt block. Your build should be something that can actually stand structurally or generally makes sense. If you are unsure on whether your build is allowed or not, please discuss it with a moderator or an admin. We can give you tips on how to improve your build in order to fit our rules. This rule also applies to ocean bases, these must be fixed to the bottom of the ocean floor.There was also some confusion about the usage of planes and boats, since these are an exception. We have discussed this and we have decided on allowing these builds. From now on, any transport vehicles (like air planes, blimps, boats etc.) or animals (like sky bison, dragons, koi fish, etc.) can float in the sky or in the water without the necessity of being attached to the floor. However, these vehicles or animals still have to follow the other rules. So if you are using these vehicles to benefit yourself during warfare for example, you will still be in violation of our rules and will be punished accordingly.
You can read our rules and their detailed explanation at the rules page on our website.
Finally, we would like to announce the arrival of the /capital command. This command allows you to freely warp to your elemental capital:
- Firebenders: Fire Nation Capital.
- Airbenders: Southern Air Temple.
- Waterbenders: Northern Water Tribe.
- Earthbenders: Ba Sing Se.

The available baby pets are:
- Baby Turtle Duck,

- Baby Fire Ferret,
- Baby Ostrich Horse,
- Baby Sky Bison,
- Baby Polar Bear Dog (Waterbenders only),

Some clarification changes to Towny Warfare and balancing Project Korra!
Hey everybody,
This announcement is a summary of a couple of fixes/balances in Towny Warfare and Project Korra. These changes have been live for a little over a week now, so we could still adjust some balancing-related changes.
Besides some small bugfixes in Towny, we made the Towny Warfare messages more clear and helpful to the players. The attack message now includes plot names and actual coordinates for players to understand where the war is taking place, the other messages include the actual coordinates for this same purpose.
Next to this, we permanently removed the usability of shears on flag blocks. Shears can still be used on normal wool blocks, it's just that they cannot be used on flags since this was very overpowered during warfare.
And last but not least, we made major changes to the damage of the skills of Project Korra.
Air Blast:0.5 hearts of damage.
Earth Blast:4.5 hearts of damage with a weapon, 3.5 hearts of damage without a weapon.
Note: The speed of the Earth block has been increased as well to make it harder to dodge those attacks.
Fire Blast (damage is including the burning tick afterwards):During day - 5.5 hearts of damage with a weapon, 3.5 hearts of damage without a weapon.During night - 4 hearts of damage with a weapon, 3 hearts of damage without a weapon.
Water Manipulation:During day - 4 hearts of damage with a weapon, 3 hearts of damage without a weapon.During night - 6 hearts of damage with a weapon, 4.5 hearts of damage without a weapon.During full moon - 7 hearts of damage with a weapon, 5 hearts of damage without a weapon.
Please beware that if you get physically hit by the weapon itself during the bending move, you will also receive the damage the weapon itself physically does (1 heart of damage) next to the damage you receive from the bending skill.

You are now able to spawn our custom made trees by using saplings
Hey everybody,
We just want to mention a fix we recently made to the custom trees plugin. You are now able to spawn our custom trees the same way you were able the normal trees to in the previous announcement.
More info about saplings and growing trees can be found here.
Note: some of the trees are really big and will need more space on the ground or in the sky in order to be able to grow. If your tree doesn't grow, it probably means that you do not have enough space to grow that tree. If you really have enough space and your tree still doesn't grow, please ask a mod or an admin for assistance.

Sapling bugfix and switching from Teamspeak to Mumble
Hey everybody,
First off, we have an announcement concerning spawning trees with Saplings. We have fixed the issue of not being able to spawn trees, so you can now spawn your trees in 8 different ways:
- 1x1 Oak Sapling
- 1x1 Spruce Sapling
- 2x2 Spruce Sapling
- 1x1 Birch Sapling
- 1x1 Acacia Sapling
- 1x1 Jungle Sapling
- 2x2 Jungle Sapling
- 2x2 Dark Oak Sapling
More info about saplings and growing trees can be found here.We will be looking into the issue that causes us not being able to spawn our custom made trees, but for now you can spawn any trees by using saplings.
Secondly, we have an announcement concerning our switch from Teamspeak to Mumble. Our Teamspeak license will expire on 26 May 2015. This means that you won't be able to connect to the Teamspeak server anymore from then on. We have no choice other than to move from Teamspeak to Mumble, since paying for the Teamspeak license more than doubles our monthly expenses and puts us in an incredibly tough financial position.
- You can download Mumble here.
- After installing it, open Mumble and click on Server > Connect.
- Add a new server to your favorites by clicking on the Add New... button on the bottom of the window that pops up.
- After that, you can fill in voice.avatarmc.com at the Address and 64738 at the Port (this should be standard already).
- Press OK and press Connect to connect to our server.
If you have any questions regarding setting up our Mumble, you can always ask members of our team or anyone else who uses Mumble already. We will be glad to help you in any possible way. :)
