Thanks for bearing with the downtime everyone. We are still awaiting word from Impulse on the cause.

Community
Posted: March 28, 2009

Community means many things to many people. Our community here is one of the best on the 'net. We have wonderful site members, and an amazing staff. For the most part, things move along pretty smoothly.

We would like to take this opportunity to issue a word of caution about a line that is blurred time and again. It causes many issues from the small to large, and we'd like to help end it once and for all so that the community can work together.

Helping other members out is wonderful and we appreciate it. It is part of what makes Mistica so fantastic!
However, members should not be 'moderating' other members.** We have an amazing moderating team who does their utmost to protect the site and uphold the rules and policies. If you would like to aid them, there is a Report Abuse button on every page of this site. Please utilize it, instead of taking matters into your own hands.

Thank you very much for reading through and for being a part of this wonderful community.

On a fine spring day..
Posted: March 24, 2009

Many moons ago..

There was a hatchling hawk that soon learned to spread her wings and fly on the winds of inspiration and creativity. We are so fortunate that this bird found a home here in Mistica.

Happy Birthday SkyHawk!

Head on over to Pandoria's to get your mitts on the new hatchlings that were released today!

What is this? A fancy new map to explore and a somewhat manic misticpal that may be behind all this Gold flinging fun! I wonder what would happen if some enterprising Mistican's caught the little guy? There could be a surprise in store!

This area is definitely a hot spot, there are rumors of a lot of development happening over the next few weeks, I'd keep my eye on Rordon Village's future!





Daedal has a couple pretty new Talismans in stock for the "Grand Opening" celebration! Hurry on in to get yours today!

A word of caution concerning the pal and his 'prizes'. Do NOT under any circumstance share links regarding the prizes. If you are found to share them, you risk your account for cheating. Thank you!

Midnight draws near...
Posted: March 13, 2009

And the blackness of night descends like a heavy blanket upon the land. Eerie silence pervades every corner of the world of Mistica. What other horrors does this day hold for the members of this world? What creepy denizen of the nightmare realm will you stalk you in your dreams?

Why the Apocalyptic Jinx of course!

Enter only if you dare, you have been warned...

"Nothing to see here folks! Move it along, move it along! I don't know what you are talking about... I dont' believe any Gurahdia, Obsidians, Gouran, or Mericaian have been seen that are suffering from this umm... infection."

Officer Coppa ushers you away but you can't help but notice the Warning sign... I wonder where that leads?

Beware...
Posted: March 13, 2009

This day. The 13th day of the 3rd month of the year.

On this day, an evil plague rises up to torment the land of Mistica. A terrifying visage to stalk our nightmares. They roam the streets with one thing in mind, the end of the world.



Ahh! Here is Officer Coppa to put our minds at ease...



"I'd advise the general populace to remain indoors today. We are unsure as to thel level of containment for the infection. If you notice your pets acting in a strange manner, or perhaps biting themselves... please lock them in a room seperate from yourself and give me a call."

Well, that did not do much to relieve MY fears...

Strange and horrific sightings have begun all over Mistica. Use extreme caution when following the link below to see the devastation of this horrible infection.



Hold tight Mistica... this day is far from over!

We are waiting on word from Zenk0 about what is going on. We sincerely apologize and thank you all for your patience. I'm sure as soon as he is able, he will let us know what is going on and be back to work.

Terms of Service Update
Posted: March 11, 2009

The Terms of Service has undergone some change. The most notable being the following Rating guideline for the site, which we hope will help everyone remain on the same page:

PG-13 Guidelines as it pertains to Misticpets.com
PG-13 - Parents Strongly Cautioned Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.
Horror/Gore- All graphics and written works may not expose internal organs, or spell out explicit murder/killing scenes, but there may be content that is bloody or horrific in some manner.
For the purposes of your pets in RP or on pet pages, relationships are allowed. Do not post explicit romance, but Disney-esque rp's and families are alright.
Nudity is not allowed on this site. Everything that would be covered in a normal bathing suit or two piece must be covered in artwork.
References to drugs or other illegal substances or acts is expressly forbidden on this website.

We have also ammended the section, (with Impulse input), regarding Trademark and Copyright:

All content, images, graphics, scripts, writings and conceptual ideas are all fully copyrighted to Impulse Communications Inc. The copying, alteration, re-use and re-distribution of any such matter is strictly prohibited and will be enforced by the fullest extent of the law. Fansites and FanArt is encouraged, however, only non-commercial use is allowed, and you must provide notice of Impulse Corporation's copyright/trademark in conjunction with the display of your work, and a link to Misticpets.com if it is being displayed offsite.

They will be reworked slightly for formatting thoughout the evening, and there are other small changes contained with them. But it wouldn't all fit in a news post. So check over them carefully! When any other large changes are made, we will note them for you in the news as we did this evening.

Yet again...
Posted: March 11, 2009

A security warning must go out to the community.

Another prominent petsite has been hacked. Accounts were compromised and they are asking everyone to change passwords. If you belong to the site, I'm sure you already know about this... But PLEASE make sure to keep seperate passwords for the various sites you may visit.

If you share your Mistic Password with other sites, it may be a good idea to change them up because of the recent security breach.

Thank you all for taking the time to read this post, we want you and your accounts to be safe.

From time to time...
Posted: March 10, 2009

There are minor changes to the ToS. They are being reworked at this time and we would like to remind everyone to check in with them every once in a while so that everyone can be up to date.

When the fully revised Terms of Service are complete there will be a news post advising everyone at that time to go over them.


Thank you!

Zenk0 is still away and we apologize for the delay, but it is out of our hands. We are sure he'll be back soon and ready to roll! As far as the quests go, more levels are going to be added tomorrow morning so that those that are ready can move forward a bit while we wait on some 'finale' coding. Please keep in mind that we do NOT have safety levels and to proceed with caution. Stock levels in shops will be changing (manually) quite soon.
