Evocal devastated much of the Avicus community by announcingthat Para and he would be resigning,due to the fact that they were not

treated properly, and overstress.Some of us did not treat them well,which forced them to resign. MapDevs dont grow on trees, and weshouldve known that.

However, being the dedicatedpeople they were Para announcedon August 31, 4:37 PM PDT that themap developing team was backwith two new additions! Itaity and

AwarriorVenom were warmly wel-comed into the map developing

team. Hopefully, now with so manymap developers, map processingwould be sped up and their stresslevels will plummet. Horrible newswas changed into incredible newsonly in a matter of days.

Look forward to speedier updates,more feedback, and an overall, bet-ter map team. Dont forget to conveyyour gratitude to the map developersperiodically, and congratulate the

newly promoted! :D We must notmake the same mistake that droveEvo and Para out before.

iately discovered he was hacked by hisOWN friend! D:

We were all fooled, into believing heactually retired for the second time. Finally,things were cleared up, Peachy was givenhis rank back and the leaving thread wasarchived. How did the hacker fool us? Well,because his friend, Peachy says, knows

me as well as my parents. This wasnt the first time he was

hacked. When Peachy was first pro-moted, he was hacked by the samefriend... into banning random people.Good think thats all fixed. Now,peachums is back on the job dontbreak the rules OR HELL BANZ

Staff Losses

The staff team has been quite shakylately. At first, moderators Zieno andDoozie were demoted. Peachy fol-lowed, retiring falsely, only later didwe find out he was hacked and hisrank later restored. Quite awhile afterthat, D00ZiE was repromoted. :D

Sadly, not long after that, Theo re-tired, a moderator who served us welland retired several times previously,but was convinced to come back. :cNow, just two days ago, Howsie tem-porarily retired, due to intensiveschool. :c

On the bright side, there always issomething to fill in the bad, such asthe re-promotion of our map develop-ers and the of more. Hopefully,Howsie will return soon, to lead avicusto glory. ;p As for now, the staff team

is down to 25 members. For those of you that are wonder-ing since Howsie is gone will ap-plications be delayed? The answeris no. AviGill will sacrifice his time totake on his fellow Directors responsi-bilities, meaning he will make sure theapplications will open on time, andreplenish our diminished staff popula-tion. :D

World News PG6

The Jinxed Update.Minecraft 1.8 was just recently released, which was an up-

date many had looked forward to The key features were:name changes, resource pack updates, new water temple/mobs,armor stands, more commands, block-hit visual removal, re-duced clicking speed, new options, SPECTATOR GAMEMODE,game rules, scoreboards, blocks, items, world types, rabbits andmutton, and much much more. The full list is here. 1.8 is calledthe bountiful update, but in reality it actually is the Jinxed Up-date.

Quite a lot of misfortune seemed to have followed 1.8. Awhilebefore it was released, Mojang enforced and edited their EULA,prohibiting servers from selling parts of Minecraft, such as kits.This EULA caused a lot of trouble, including community upris-ings. Some Minecraftians became so enraged, they teamed to-gether and DDOSd the Minecraft servers for quite a while. Thiswas when Minecraft started edging towards the road to death.

Just recently, Bukkit was forced to shut down, due to EULA,yet Mojang prohibited them, claiming they had bought Bukkit 2

years ago, which they did but they never bothered to help Buk-kit with their troubles. 25 of the Bukkit developers quit, prettymuch the entire developing team. Mojang claims Bukkit 1.8 willbe released but will it? There are only 2 DEVs, Grum and Din-nerbone... who are already engaged in Mojang affairs

Along with all the misfortune, Avicus seemed to have a hugedrop in players, due to school. Avicus also began experiencingextreme server lag, and time-outs. These many reasons, com-bined with yet even more, make Minecraft 1.8 the jinxed updateand not to men-tion I can nolonger play Mine-craft on my maincomputer after1.8 JINX link

By Trident

Skool Sux ;OThe Avicus population dwindles,

as it faces its worst enemy, school.Due to school, Avicus now only has70-150 average players online onthe weekdays. Some people evenconsider Avicus as dying. As if thatwerent bad enough...lots of staffhave retired, due to school.

Im not saying school is bad, obvi-ously. School is necessary. Butreally, its caused us quite somegrief. Along with the everydayNONNONONONO THERESSCHOOL! D:, and the typical, cantI just sleep one more minute?theres the pain of looking at a dyingserver or rather, it seems so.

Several threads have been cre-ated about this, and discussionssoar high. Hopefully, Avicus willmake it through, so what WAS themax in summer, becomes the mini-mum in the school year. I hope youall do well in this school year... bothin school and in Avicus. LONGLIVE AVICOOOOSSS!!! ;p

Editorial Hey there, trident here... today I would like to talk about Avicus dying. Avicus may

seem like its dying, but its not its mainly just school. However, if the current problems

arent fixed it may die. The main problems are: slow updates and server issues. Both of

these issues can be fixed with just one thing. New Developers.

Some of you may be wondering WHY ISNT IVY HIRING ANY MORE DEVS? Picking Developers isnt an easy task,

they have to be both a)skilled and b)trustworthy. A developer has the power to ruin the entire server. Now that really isnt what we want right? For now all we can do is wait and be patient, until Ivy gets more developers. Hopefully we willhave about 2- 4 skilled developers eventually, and Avicus will start growing once again.

Now, another issue is school obviously, but its just life. Weve gotten used to the insane amount of people during the sum-mer we just have to get used to it, sadly. In the best case scenario, some popular youtuber stumbles onto Avicus and makes a giant series about it that will get us a ton of players and if we have enough developers and staff to handle that that

would be just awesome.

Another problem I hear about lately is the hacker problem. I really think NCP should be tweaked, to be more lenient inCTH and to block all autoregen that hack is just too op. Now flying, too is an obvious hack yet if NCP was turned

high on this one there would be a lot of NCP teleporting and whatnot. If only some of these old suggested staff tools were

implemented: http://avicus.net/forums/d96306342?page=1 ;c
