Hello all, and seasons greetings!

Well the holidays are upon us again, and it is that time of year again. As expected we do have Santa suits for you again. I'll try to tell you this again, Santa suits are EASY to get, there is no need to buy them, and everybody will be able to get one! Please don't waste your money buying one; it will only be a waste to buy something that is free, as it is every year.

Over the holidays Nexus staff will be on hand, the Delphi's will be answering e-mails, and I will be around to continue the event currently going on, as well as the new parts we have planned to happen over the next two weeks when the holidays are going.

I know recently we have been a lot quieter than usual, but I want you all to rest assured that we are still here, we are still watching, and we are still listening to all that you have been saying.

Recently we have been hard at work here preparing for a couple of the upcoming additions and changes, some pretty major. For example we had originally planned to release a new patch last week, but with all the changes we had requested for the client, along with the fixes to bugs like the dreaded "screenshot bug" the client will not be out in time for the holidays. The programming team is close to finishing it up, and I am sure Delphi will be posting more about it, and a timetable for it's release in the next few weeks.

Myself I have been tied up with a lot of the requests from the carnage staff, sub path requests, and many of the smaller things that the majority of the community don't realize are important to the operations of a game like this. I know most of you are not aware of all the things that have been going on, and may only have even heard about a small thing here and there, but a lot has been going on over the weeks all over Nexus. No one thing was very large, just dozens of small things to smooth out the rough edges, and nothing really news worthy, which is why I wasn't posting. Really, how exciting is it to hear about a redesign of the teleports in the carnage hall?

Besides all the small stuff here and there this year has also been filled with some very large additions of it's own, and overall I think this has been one of the biggest years for development of features and additions to the community. We have seen the addition of some very long requested things, such as houses, which nobody at Nexon though possible originally. On the feature side we have had things like the "AFK" messages, user web pages, and things like that. There is plenty more, but I won't bore you all with a long list of them.

Overall we wish we had managed to achieve more with our time, but we have to settle for what we did manage to get out. We have plenty of stuff planned to come out for the next year, especially with the new client, which will unlock access to content we have never been able to use before. All this silence has not been a loss, we are on the verge of releasing quite a bit in the start of next year, and then continuing to release new assets all next year.

But for now all I will say is Seasons greetings for you, and all your friends and family from myself, and the rest of the Nexus staff.
