Hello everyone,
In a couple of days, it will mark 4 years since Alora officially released to the public. It's crazy to think that it's been 4 entire years since this journey began… Needless to say, it's been quite the ride, but I've truly enjoyed every moment of running this server that so many of you have chosen to call home, and we're committed to making sure that we're doing our best to take Alora in the direction that you want us to. Although it's been 4 years, we're more enthusiastic than ever about Alora for this upcoming year, and we've got some really cool things we're excited to show you in the near future.
We really could not be here without you guys, so I'd like to thank you for being here and showing us your support time and time again, even through the obstacles along the path.
Some of you have been with us since the beginning, some of you have only joined us recently, but regardless of how long you've been with us, we're super proud of our community and the support you guys have consistently shown. Your support is what keeps us going 
Today's update is just a few small additions to kick the anniversary celebrations off properly — you can grab a slice of Birthday cake at home, a special birthday hat and balloons, and for those of you who've been with us since we've launched (4+ years), you'll receive a unique item as well.
Don't miss the drop party today! It will start at 2PM Eastern Time (6pm server time), and there's over 65 billion GP worth of items ready to be dropped, so you'll certainly have a shot at some good items!

- Speak to Party Pete at home to grab your 4-year Birthday hat and Birthday balloons!
- These balloons have a purple color scheme.
- While you're at it, grab a slice of cake (or two!) off of the table next to Party Pete.
