Hello guys, I'll be making the official Alora Newspaper. It's going to be done on a weekly basis. Right now it's just me doing it but hopefully in the future more people will join in.

Over the course of this week we have recieved alot of updates, the major ones are the following:

 

1) Barrelchest can now be fought, he drops Barrelchest anchor. The anchor has a special attack that is working now. You can speak to the monk at the Edgeville monastery to be teleported to him.

 

2) Trident of the seas has been fixed.

 

3) ::clearfl command added to clear your friends list.

 

4) Shooting stars are now available. They can land in many different locations, sometimes even in the wilderness. The first person to find the shooting star receives a large XP bonus based on their mining level.The shooting star will have a mining level requirement -- this is random, between level 18 and 90.

 

5) Dagannoth kings can now be fought.

 

6) The Donator zone recieved the folowing adittions:

Sea turtle/manta ray fishing spot

Magic trees

Rune rocks

Anvil

This week we interviewed our Community Manager @Blank . Here is the interview.

 

What is your favorite thing to do IRL? Do you have a hobby?

Hmm, this is a tough one. My absolute favourite thing to do in real life would just be hangimg out with my friends. I'm in a fraternity for those who didn't know, and these take up a bunch of time. At least here they do. There are days I'm just with my friends and we all don't really know how the day past by so quick just because we were messing about and doing a whole bunch of nothing. As for a hobby : does partying count? Spend most of my days doing that really. When I'm not working on school work, or on Alora I'm usually partying. 

 

What is it that you enjoy most of the Alora Community? Being able to see so many people enjoy the game, ye it's been a rough start. And ye last week my whole week might have only had around 20 hours of sleep (I think Omi can relate to this, probably slept even less than I did). But it's been worth it. You guys are what make it all so worth it. I know I'm strict, but it's how I prefer to run a professional server. I might be a little too strict, but I'm sure people will adapt. 

 

Favorite TV Show? This is a hard one. I'm a fan of House of Cards, and Game of Thrones (though I never finished either nor am I anywhere close to catching up). I'd say I'd have to give it to Suits. It's the only thing that I was able to binge watch to the end.

 

Where do you see yourself 5 years from now? Don't know, I'm not really a guy who thinks of the future that much. More of a live in the moment kind of guy. We'll see what the world has planned for me I guess?

I've always liked playing servers were people post newspapers, but they eventually stop after a few, hope you continue doing it :P

Honestly this is great. Although the text font is so 2006 microsoft word, your intention was great. I'm sure it will only get better now. +1
