22 January Updates - Developer Andres, Doomsayer, Bitcoins!
Posted: Mon Jan 22, 2018 8:09 pm
First and foremost: congratulations to Andres for passing his trial, he is now recognized as an official PkHonor Developer! This also means he now wears the Developer crown (a brown 'D' crown)!
To clarify: he is not a part of the staff team and the rank has no punishment powers. He does have commands and restrictions similar to Honor players, but most importantly, the crown means he is a distinguished member of our community who has gone above and beyond to improve the server. He has aided me a lot in my work and enabled us to release more features, faster than ever before, without asking anything in return for his many hours of work, other than our respect and of course a more enjoyable server.
It's been nearly a year since he has been actively developing new features and fixing bugs in our code and in that time he's become quite a capable developer. He has more than managed to meet our expectations and he still keeps coming up with new ways to improve the server, while maintaining the right mindset. We hope he will continue on this track for many months (or years?) to come!
In further news, we have now added the Doomsayer, who roams just North of the Edgeville bank.
The Doomsayer allows you to see your personal punishment history (both punishments and warnings) and to toggle warning messages when you attempt to perform any of these 11 actions:
Since a few days ago, we have added CoinPayments, a payment service which accepts Bitcoin, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Dash, Dogecoin and Ethereum on our donation page. These donations in cryptocurrency should hopefully allow some players to donate who were previously unable to do so.
Lastly, this weekend there is a Dagannoth Kings event, starting in:
Ending in:
Next up you can expect some more QoL updates, along with the recently announced final three wilderness bosses which Andres had been working on!
