    Hello Arkadia ...

    On Tuesday evening Dylan reached out to me, and without going into too many specifics, we had a wonderful reconnecting after being out of touch for a few years. He ended up with the Arkadia dev team, and I ended up with the Monria dev team. While many of our responsibilities are quite similar, we focused on the dynamics of event planning and how we could collaborate to bring Arkadia and Monria together for interesting, engaging and fun events that would benefit both of our communities.

    We will begin this venture after the patch so that Monria has fixes from this most recent VU completed and make certain that our event dynamics are in place and working properly. As some may know, we are completely reconstructing Monria to fit theme and vision, and we started with the 3 craters (not done yet), so we want to make sure that everything is good to go.

    I am looking forward to working with Dylan, and since we have a history of working together in the past, we know exactly how this is going to go down. After our 3 hr Skype voice chat Tuesday night, it was like no time had passed at all, and we were our crazy, silly selves, all giggly about future prospects, especially knowing what we are capable of conjuring up. :D

    Monria takes its Monrian Born on field trips to Arkadia (and other locations), and we love Arkadia, so I see great things coming from this reuniting.

    I have also created a dedicated subforum for Planet Arkadia at the Monria forum where Dlyan can post what's going on with Arkadia. In turn, I was invited to post Monria events and notable activities here.

    Kiki Jiki ... do you have any more Stealth armor sets in your shop? (F)

    Thank you again Dylan for the invite and wonderful chat. Glad to be reunited. :)

    Howdy,

    I am at work right now so I can't check my inventory spreadsheet or log into visit shops, but unless they have sold overnight, there should be a full set in Celeste North 5 and Emerald Lakes Mall L1,S1

    Also I can make to order assuming I have the materials - might getting low on golden shakers.

    Regards,
    KikkiJikki

    Is there any more info on this? Do you plan to scrap the Lovecraftian theme?

    Regardless I wish you much luck with the partnership, its great to see more news coming from that old rock these days.

    No, we are actually reconstructing and developing Monria to be more in tune with the Cthulhu Mythos theme and our storyline. There is so much more to come. This is just about Dylan and I working together to collaborate on some future events that bring Arkadia and Monria together. Dylan and I did an event in the past before we joined our respective development teams where we took participants from one location to another with a full day of activities that were quite fun, so I'm sure we will consider something like that again.

    We are full-speed ahead with our Cthulhu theme, no worries. :D

    Hey DME,

    Firstly, welcome to the Arkadia Forum.

    It is so exciting to know that we will be collaborating with Monria on events that will span across space and good times lie ahead for both our communities.

    New style in even management, mysteries in story line and above all, a community that will be riding this crazy roller coaster with us.

    I invite everyone to please welcome DME to the Arkadia Forum.

    Can't wait for what we have planned :D

    Welcome to Arkforum DME, and GL to both parties in creating co-owned events. This truly reflects the words 'Entropia Universe' .
    For far too long the perception (rightly or wrongly) from the player base, is that each planet seems to isolate itself and tries to thrive by putting the other teams down. Let's hope this starts a new era of PP co-operation to truly develop this games potential.

    Thank you everyone for the warm welcome, it's appreciated. Dylan and I are really excited to collaborate on some super events, and I can tell you this much ... we (Monria) are known as the "Expect the Unexpected" development team, and knowing Dylan as I do with the experiences we had in the past, he fits into that category quite nicely, so I'm sure we're looking at some crazy times ahead.

    Once the patch is completed and Monria is good to go, we'll get started on our first event. Since both Dylan and Anny are so talented with graphics, we might want to get them to collaborate too on something special for our banners. Oh, the possibilities. :p

    Maybe next time the bots crash something in to Calypso big enough to cause a crater it'll cause a gravitational pull that will cause the moon to enter Ark's orbit?

    Lets just huck all the dropships over in a big ball, they are UL so I'm sure they will survive.

    A long while back when Monria was up for sale again I did bring an idea like this up. :) My idea though was to just get a few motherships and tug it across space making a big event out of it as it got closer.

    sorry but i have read so many posts and news by ma, pps, coowners and whom ever about "what exciting times" "bright future" "awesome events" and what not all to be ahead us all...

    i wait and see until the content of the event is presented.

    in the meanwhile please stop this expectation seeding on the forums, its old and gets annoying. specially cause experience told us already that its much likely you cant hold what you promise. it feels like missleading advertising.

    eu formula = content > blabla

    It also gets old and annoying seeing people seed the forum with negative comments about things which might be positive....... Let's wait and see what happens before getting negative about it.

    i did not judge the event at all, i wrote about the unnecessary advert and expectation seeding when nothing of content is presented.

    A more conventional term for expectation seeding is "marketing". One might think this a reasonable activity for planet partners to undertake on their forum. Yes?

    Noted, even though this is a thread dedicated to greetings and awareness and not one dedicated to content. I would suggest sticking to the base "content" of the thread instead of bringing up something that has nothing to do with the subject material :)
