Tonight is the first of what I hope to be many PoA PKL Fight Nights! Festivities will start at 9 PM ET and will feature a wide variety of combat. Specifics are available in this thread. I'm looking forward to a lot of fun!
Much to my chagrin, I discovered a couple nights ago that the forums and this site's email server weren't talking to each other properly - another bug resulting from the site's migration a month or so ago. The problem has been corrected, fortunately, but pretty much every function that relied on email (registration, PM notification, offsite email messages) over the last month weren't sent properly. Hopefully that's the last problem I'll have to fix as a result of the migration. On a more positive note, I've added more content to the site, including more event lore and a few updates to quest guides.
Welcome back to Eric Dippel! Although most of his characters have been sworn in for quite some time, Eric himself just returned last night. Glad to have you back!

Patch Day has come and gone and with it have come a wide variety of new quests and gear. You can find all the Turbine announcements (Dev notes, Teaser, etc) HERE. I haven't had much opportunity to explore this patch yet and the major fan sites (specifically Maggie's as she just had a child) haven't had much to say about specific quests, so the quest section is a bit bare. Many of this month's quests require a rare-dropping portal gem and/or a large group of high-level characters to complete, so walkthroughs will be a bit slow in coming.
I would still like to get a PoA PKL Fight Night event organized. I know some of you have expressed interest and with March's changes to PvP, the event should be that much more entertaining. For those of you who are skeptical about PKL or about killing your fellow Paladins, you have nothing to lose but some spell components. If you can't kill your friends, who can you kill?
On a personal note, I should have a lot more time in the evenings, so expect to see more of me. Apologies for my absense as of late, but it couldn't be avoided. I'm looking forward to getting back into the swing of things and I should be running public quests this weekend (although they will have to end earlier than usual). I'm looking forward to welcoming Eric Dippel and Seakon Fate back into the fold, which should be happening soon.

Many apologies for being so far behind in updating the site. The last couple weeks have been pretty busy for me and I fell out of my typical website-updating rhythm. I will still be fairly busy until after Easter, but I will have more time following that. I really don't have much information to pass on about the site - I haven't had a chance to add any new guides or information, but all of the bugs that popped up after migration seem to have been fixed (if you do find one, please email me!).
