Community Update #1

[Mark T]

Ahoy Members,

 

This is just a brief update on what's been happening internally and externally in AhoyWorld.

 

First, I would like to thank you all for the kind words regarding the change over.

It certainly has been an eventful few weeks. There has been a lot of discussions involving finances, staff structure, activity and how we can improve upon them.

First change I'd like to announce is how the staff structure is displayed: this will clarify the roles of each member and make easier to know who reports to who.

 

 

We will keep this updated here:

As you can see, there are positions available that we are looking to fill.

Second change made is how we as staff communicate.

 

We've been using Telegram for the last few years for business-related chats, quick-fire questions and response and felt that it was time to move on. So without further ado, we have finally decided to migrate over to Discord. 

We felt that by doing this we could better accommodate you guys which should help us engage and interact with our members more. Being a gaming platform, hopefully it will expose and grow AhoyWorld again.

Please bear in mind that this will be a TEXT chat only and not a replacement for TeamSpeak.

Now's also a good time to confirm something we teased a few weeks ago: Invade & Annex 4.

We have been hard at work developing the sequel to Invade & Annex, rewriting the mission from scratch with an emphasis on efficiency and security, meaning more fps and (hopefully) less hacking. We'll be running an open beta test in the near future, so stay tuned.

 

And lastly, I would like to take a moment to thank all the staff for their hard work behind the scenes, especially @Ryko for his rigorous testing and development of I&A4 and @GhostDragon for maintaining the back end stuff to making sure that you all have a smooth and enjoyable experience within AhoyWorld.

 

That's all for now, we look forward to seeing you on our various virtual battlefields.
