Bug Squashing, Monthly Items, and Rare Items!

Bug Squashing, Features, Monthly Items, and a Rare Item Auction!

Seems to be another big update night :> We have some bug squashing to tell you all about, awesome monthly items, and another awesome rare item auction to get excited about! I am going to break these down into their respective sections. This is bound to be an enormous news post, but please read it all!


Bug Squashing!
Our lovely Robyn has gone on a mass bug squashing spree today! Here's a list of the scariest bugs that she was able to stomp on:
  • Aviator Caps should work now!
  • The "Show Notes" feature should now be debugged and working.
  • Auctions! Auctions previously had an issue with recognizing the auto-buy price if it was set to 0. That's been fixed!
  • Apostrophes and line breaks are no longer plagued by the slash or slash-n that you've been seeing!
If you find that ANY of these are still issues for you, PLEASE report them to the bug hub immediately!


Egyptian Theme Monthly Items!
The art team has been hard at work all month to ensure you get amazing monthly items to envy and hoard! If there's not a notation beside it, it means that the item is available in the monthly shop. These amazing items will be available in the monthly shop sometime tomorrow (so be sure to get your September monthly items before then!) <3

Rare Item Auction!
We're super excited to tell you that the rare item auction has returned! We're going to try and hold these auctions once every few weeks. They will run for 1 week at a time and you can find the whole auction list Here.

We adore and appreciate every one of you. You are the life blood of Alacrity; without your love and support for the site, it would cease to exist.

Really do not love getting 3 of the same background from monthly bags. :/ Two of which are from the same bag. :

The wild cats, I believe, weren't made for the Egyptian theme, they were made to be a new item for the Cash Boutique. Just a prediction, though.

Smilies?

Please take note of the new poll, but don't think that we have forgotten the results of the last one. On Robyn's list of things to fix is setting markings to show by defaults and make those that want them hidden check the box :)

This new poll is all about emoticons!

Do YOU want emoticons to appear in chat as picture smilies, or do you prefer the text version?

Please vote :>

I vote no, or you can have a check box by them so people have a choice to use them or not on text.

You guys are so picky. Of course nobody wants them, because then (as usual) The mods would go crazy about "Homg smilie overuse!" Just like everything else. Couldn't we compromise? Have it be turned off? Or if you overuse it, you get it turned off? Come on, be a little flexible. Let the chat have at least a TINY bit of light please.

I already overuse smilies and I know it. :) Please leave them text. I would be even more annoying as I try to convey that I am amused or smiling as I chat.
