Hello community,

Uthgard now offers guild bots for your IRC channel which provide several functions and services. Unfortunately, we cannot offer more than 20 bots so that only larger and more active guilds can apply for one. If a guild would like to have a guild bot the respective leader should contact Presto, Kazuki, or Metty. The bots come with the following functions:

- The guild chat will be displayed on IRC
- The alliance chat will be displayed on IRC, too
- It sends the guild's MOTD automatically to all people who join the IRC channel
- Messages for guild members logging in and out of the server are also displayed on IRC

Commands:
.g - Write something in guild chat
.a - Write something in alliance chat
.gi - List guild info

Due to these functions it is advisable to use the guild bot only in internal guild channels. Using the bot improperly such as for flooding, spamming etc. will be punished as bug using (2-7 days jail, or even permanent ban).

Besides this new feature we would like to let you know that a problem has been located with bow damage yesterday. This problem could be resolved on a large scale. Several properties for bows were incorrectly defined which had negative effects on damage calculation. Mostly Hibernia and Midgard were affected. All existing items and templates have been corrected.
