Wizard101: Halloween Run Help Meetup - TODAY

Hello Wizards!

I'm making this blog post to let you know that the Halloween Run Help Meetup will take place TODAY. We're having this meetup to prepare for this large event. Keep reading for more information such as meetup location/time and what exactly we need help with. I've also provided an image at the bottom of the post that you click on to access the Halloween Run post.

TODAY at 6:00 pm CST

Nightside, Vampire Realm

Port Wizards: We need help getting port wizards to teleport everyone to the afterparty right after the Halloween Run. We'll need you to check back and make sure you got everyone in each area so nobody is left behind. We'll have different groups of port wizards, which we'll discuss tonight at the meetup.

YouTube Moderators: If you know commands/prior moderator experience, I'll need help moderating the Halloween Run Youtube Chat when I stream this event. I'm planning on streaming every weekend during October so if you'd like to test that out with me before the event itself, we can do that.  I'll provide more information about what we need help on tonight at the meetup. If you're not able to attend tonight and are able to help without cancelation at last moment, email me:

Reputable Sites VS Unreputable Sites

Hi there,

I thought I'd make a post about a topic that I don't mind explaining to the community. I receive codes from our community manager, Tom Purdue, which is the host of KI Live and an employee at Kingsisle. So far the Official Wizard101 Fansites, and a few other sites - like my website or Vanessa's website, or other trusted Kingsisle fans are given codes to giveaway to this community.

There are always websites that you should be careful of before entering contests. For example, if you see a website asking for your personal information - it's too good to be true. Another safety tip you should keep in mind is that you should not purchase any item outside of the official Wizard101 and Pirate101 websites/and or games. I've made two pages on my website that include all Kingsisle links. If you click on the Spiral above, you'll access a page about Wizard101 where you can find Official Wizard101 Links. If you click on the Pirate101 Skull Island image below, you'll find a Pirate101 Page with Official Pirate101 Links.

Remember to always keep your personal information safe. You can do this by using trusted websites and not websites who only want your personal information.  I hope you all use this post to remember that you should keep all personal information personal. If you want to keep your accounts - don't give it away for things that are too good to be true and if you use an unreputable website, that is one way of giving away your account. Staying safe online starts by keeping your personal information private.

Give Credit Where Credit Is Due

Hello,

I wanted to make a short blog post to talk about something important that I think is important to talk about. As you can tell by the title of this blog post, "Give Credit Where Credit Is Due", I want to credit somebody that has worked hard for our community, especially over the past year.

Our Community Manager

We all know that Tom Purdue, our community manager, has worked hard on keeping the community updated on every event, the attacks, and more. We have to remember that what he is doing is a job. Not everything is fun and games - so let's show a lot of appreciation for the hard work that he's done to make sure things continue to run smoothly. We also got an extended Birthday celebration and codes on top of contests that we've had. These codes that fansites are giving away also came from Tom. Thank you, Tom, for your hard work! 

Kingsisle Entertainment As A Whole

During the DDOS attacks, employees continued to work on the games to get us all back on the game. I don't think it's Kingsisle's fault at all that teenagers wanted to bring down a family game. The blame of this is on those teenagers, not Kingsisle. I appreciate Kingsisle's hard work bringing the game back up. We appreciate your hard work during Labor Day weekend bringing the games back up. People can say what they want - you're an awesome game team and I'm a proud supporter for nearly nine years! Thank you. The community loves you and the trolls will never outdo the support the support from your most loyal players. I wish you the very best for each game and game that you build.
