    In the ever-evolving world of "The Forgotten," we're thrilled to bring our community an essential update that promises to enhance your gaming experience. Today, we've taken a significant step forward by updating our server to the latest version of Paper. This update is part of our ongoing commitment to provide a seamless and robust gaming environment, ensuring stability, performance improvements, and access to the latest features.
    What's New in the Update?
    The latest Paper server version introduces a slew of enhancements and bug fixes, aimed at refining gameplay and offering a smoother, more engaging experience. While the technical specifics might appeal more to our tech-savvy adventurers, every player will benefit from the increased reliability and smoother gameplay this update brings.
    Reactivated Extra Storage: A Pleasant Surprise!
    In addition to the server update, we have some exciting news that will bring a smile to many faces. The Extra Storage feature has been reactivated and is now fully operational! This is not just a minor tweak but a significant boon for all players, enhancing your adventure in "The Forgotten" by offering additional space to store your precious finds.
    How Does Extra Storage Work?
    For those unfamiliar with Extra Storage, it's a feature designed to ease inventory management and enhance your gaming experience. With Extra Storage, you no longer have to worry about running out of space during your adventures. Here's how to get started:
    Activating Extra Storage: Simply type /storage in the chat to access your Extra Storage. It's a straightforward command that unlocks a world of convenience. Automatic Item Collection: All items you pick up, with the exception of those with custom IDs, will be automatically stored in your Extra Storage. This means you can focus more on exploring and less on juggling inventory space. Peace of Mind: For those who have used Extra Storage before and worried about their items during the hiatus, fret not! All your items are exactly where you left them, safe and sound in the storage. Embrace the Update
    We're excited for you to dive back into "The Forgotten" with these updates. The reactivation of Extra Storage, in particular, is a game-changer, providing you with the flexibility and space needed to explore our vast world without limits. Remember, the command /storage is your key to unlocking this feature. Whether you're a veteran player or just starting, now is the perfect time to experience the improved world of "The Forgotten."
    Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, thank you for being a part of our growing community. Happy adventuring!

    We're excited to announce that this Friday, March 1st, The Forgotten will be undergoing some significant updates that we've been planning for a while. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that your experience on our server is always improving, and part of that commitment involves keeping our system up-to-date and introducing new features that enhance gameplay and community interaction.
    What's Happening?
    Plugin Updates: We're updating all our plugins to their latest versions. While there won't be new plugins added during this round of updates, ensuring that our current ones are up-to-date is crucial for maintaining server stability and security. This step is all about refining and improving what we already have to make sure everything runs smoothly.
    Major Update - Heroes MMO Plugin: The highlight of this update is our switch to the new Heroes MMO plugin! This is a major upgrade for us and represents a significant shift in how our gameplay dynamics will work. The Heroes MMO plugin brings a richer, more immersive RPG experience to our server, offering new abilities, quests, and a more engaging combat system that we believe everyone will enjoy.

It's an excellent opportunity for everyone to explore new aspects of the game, develop your characters in unique ways, and engage with the community on a whole new level.
    Check the Wiki: We strongly encourage all players to visit the updated wiki area once the changes go live. Familiarizing yourself with the new plugin and its features will greatly enhance your gameplay and ensure you're getting the most out of the new system.
    Feedback Welcome: As always, we're keen to hear your feedback. After you've had some time to experience the updates, let us know what you think. Your input is invaluable in helping us fine-tune and make future improvements.

    Farewell to mcMMO, Hello Heroes!
    After much consideration, we've decided to say goodbye to mcMMO. While it has been a valuable part of our community, providing enjoyable additions and enhancements, we've found that it comes with its limitations.
    In its place, we're excited to introduce the Heroes plugin. This robust plugin offers a wealth of features that we're confident will bring a new level of depth and excitement to your gameplay:
    Classes and Professions with Levels: Embark on a journey with a role that grows with you. Heroes Skills & Permission Skills: Unlock powerful abilities and permissions as you progress. Skill Binding & Inventory Restrictions: Customize your gameplay with skill bindings and manage your inventory strategically. Alternative Health/Damage System: Experience a new way of combat and survival. Party EXP Sharing & Loot Rolling: Team up with friends for shared adventures and rewards. Improved Skill Framework: Enjoy a more refined skill system for an enhanced experience. Mana & Stamina System: Manage your resources wisely during your quests. Enhanced Help and Commands: Get the assistance and information you need with improved help features. Stat/Scoreboard System & Cool-down Action Bar: Keep track of your progress and abilities efficiently. Toggleable Mob Health Bars & Attributes with GUI: Gain better insight into your enemies and customize your attributes. Enhanced Targeting System & Vanilla Crafting Restrictions: Engage in combat more effectively and experience balanced crafting. Bonus EXP Permission Nodes & Improved Party System: Maximize your experience gains and enjoy a more cohesive party system. Skill Icons + Hot Bars with Magic: Enhance your interface with intuitive skill icons and hot bars. Commands on Class Change & Abstracted Class Progression: Seamlessly transition between classes and follow a unique progression path. Shielding Health System: Benefit from an additional layer of protection in battles. We're eager to start this new chapter and will be providing more details on these features next week.
    New Address Announcement
    As we evolve into a multi-gaming company, our server address will also change to reflect our expansion. The current address, play.aethro.net, will soon serve as a landing spot for our gaming list. Stay tuned for the new subdomain announcement, which will provide direct access to The Forgotten.
    We Want to Hear From You!
    Your feedback is invaluable to us. As we embark on these exciting changes, we invite you to share your thoughts, questions, or comments. Feel free to engage with us here on our website article or join the conversation in our Discord channel.

    Dear Aethro Community,
    It is with a heavy heart that I write this message to you today. After four years of dedication, creativity, and community building within Second Life, we have made the tough decision to shut down Aethro's estate operations. This decision did not come lightly and is the result of prolonged challenges, including a significant lack of sales and an ongoing drain on our resources.
    Our journey in Second Life has been incredibly rewarding, filled with remarkable creativity and unforgettable interactions. We've been privileged to host a vibrant community of tenants, creators, and visitors who have turned our digital spaces into a canvas for their imagination. Your enthusiasm and support have been the backbone of Aethro, and for that, we are forever grateful.
    I want to assure our current tenants your digital home with us will remain your own until the region shuts down. However, please note that as of today, we will no longer be accepting rent payments. 
    This decision has been incredibly difficult. Aethro Estate is not just a business; it has been a labor of love, a source of pride, and a significant part of our lives for the past four years. However, as we navigate these challenging times, we must prioritize the well-being of my family and the future of our company. It is with a heavy heart that we close this chapter, but we believe it is the best course of action under the circumstances.
    We are immensely proud of what we've built together and the community that has flourished within Aethro. Although our estate operations are ending, the spirit of innovation and community that defined our time in Second Life will continue to inspire us. We are deeply thankful to each and every one of you who joined us on this journey. Your creativity, passion, and support have meant the world to us.
    As we move forward, we will carry the memories and experiences from our Second Life estates with us. Thank you for making Aethro a wonderful place, and for your understanding and support during this transition.
    With heartfelt thanks and best wishes for the future,
    Paul Kaiser aka Zack Massiel (Second Life)
    Founder, Aethro
