Stupid Windows
ARG!! This is my 3rd time writing this so its going to be short. The sucky
OS named Windows is crashing every few minutes causing me to restart. Im going to format and start from scratch which means the
Blades of Virtue server will be down tonight and maybe tomorrow.
Im sorry about this. Just blame Microsoft for making the
buggiest software in the world! =)

Nice and new
Well, the Blades of Virtue server is back
up. The computer is much faster and cleaner now after the format. It took a
little longer than expected because I went out and bought a new 30gig Hard
Drive and had to install it.

BoV switches ownership
In case anyone has been hearing things
regarding Blades of Virtue leaving Nobis Productions
your concern is warranted. In the short past, Wuzzbent
(the creator and rightful legal owner of the BoV
source) has since sold the source code and rights of Blades of Virtue to RandomQ. What does this mean for Nobis
Productions? That is a very good question, negotiations are currently underway
and are hoped to be resolved in the short future.

Cancellation of BoV
Let me start off with a history lesson,
many months ago Wuzzbent joined Nobis
Productions. With him he brought Blades of Virtue. Blades of
Virtue was to become a Nobis Productions
product, and so it did. Since then we have hosted the server for the game,
allowing the many fans and players easy access to the game. When Wuzzbent finished BoV, he kept
the source code, and decided to no longer work on the game. This made it
impossible for any other member of Nobis Productions
to work on the game. But at the time, did not matter to us as we were under the
impression we could get it by simply asking Wuzzbent.
Over the time Wuzzbent decided it was best to leave Nobis Productions and began working on his own company, Wuzzware (http://www.wuzzware.com). When he left it was a
clean cut, he was working on another project and left the source code and legal
rights with us. Thus it was implied, and assumed once again that BoV which has been with us for quite a while was still
ours. Then the shocker came a few months later. Wuzzbent
wanted to sell the source code and rights of BoV to Nobis Productions. As a mutual feeling among all the
premium members, we were rather outraged. With time, we cooled down, and
decided that in soon time, BoV will be replaced. A
short while from that decision, yet another message from Wuzzbent
revealing that BoV has been sold to another party, RandomQ (http://www.ZoneZero.net), this again outraged us
further. At that time negotiations were launched and communication with RandomQ began. RandomQ wanted to
work on the game, and let the server remain in Nobis
Productions. This option did not seem fair to the members of Nobis Productions. We would be using our resources to help
a project/product which is no longer our property, and seemingly unjustly
ripped. After deliberation it was decided that our server will no longer run,
and the saved server data will not be given to the new party. This may seem
like a lack of caring for our fanbase, but the
decision was arrived at in protection of our fanbase.
We are uncertain how the information will be used after it leaves our
possession, the e-mail addresses could be sold to third parties, and the
passwords unjustly misused. It is because of this concern and with a heavy heart
the ruling was made. In short time, BoV will be
removed from the Nobis Productions webpage entirely.

We hope that all this information is has
been useful in understanding the situation, and has not detoured
you from future gamming with Nobis Productions. We
apologize for the inconvenience, but this decision was the most responsible.

Player Database Reset
ATTENTION ALL BoV
MEMBERS:
It has come to my attention that, on more
than one occasion and by more than one player, instances of player stealing,
cheating, and other such misconduct now threaten the welfare and enjoyment of BoV.
Player misconducts, along with the
database record corruption, player account problems, and problems with SysOp/Player interaction have made the following a long put
off, but inevitable action.
To be respectful to all who play, a
Deletion/Reset of ALL accounts will be issued. This is being done to askew the
aforesaid problems, and to offset all instances of corruption and misconduct.
This is a long thought out decision, and
one that I do not take lightly. I must apologize for the inconveniences that I
am well aware this incurs to all members of BoV, be
it Player or Staff.
At time of reset I will also be removing
all Moderators, Developers, SysOps, and Admins. Again, due to problems with SysOp/Player
interaction, this is unfortunately an inevitable occurrence.
This
is going to take place at approximately
