                    Membership users will now have the chance to get their membership extended by 25 minutes due to downtime. If our script picks up that the server last recorded activity over an hour ago, anyone with active membership will have their membership increased by 25 minutes. This script is run every half an hour so be aware that if the script was for example run at 2.30pm and there was an 70 minute downtime period at 1.10pm. Due to the server being brought up before the script is run, you would not have your membership increased. This script may be disabled from running during planned downtime.

Price range is 8-17 tokens (for membership players, 7-16 tokens). Please note that it is a chance and you're not guaranteed to get a shiny. PWO will not return any tokens should the case be you don't get a shiny.

                          Stuck in a PC on spot (8, 16)? Relog and you should be moved up.

                          September updates:

                          28th September 2011:

                          Guild tags were removed from the chat box, in the future I plan to replace this with a number 3-4 character tag for guilds which can be created via the Playerdex.pokemon-world-online.net/]Playerdex[/url].

                          18th September 2011:

                          AFK kicks now happen at 5 minutes instead of 10 minutes. This still results in a 2 minute temp ban and you will also receive a warning at 3 minutes.

                          An issue was fixed with the Guild Bank in which users which were actually online, were counted as offline.

                          Shiny pokemon are now indicated in the Guild Bank.

                          Work has started on the next update for the forum theme.

                          I also had an attempt at replacing the current text shown on the welcome screen however it seems to have failed. Oh well, in my journey at least I managed to break the maps.

                          17th September 2011:

                          Guild Leadership Transfer option has arrived, now depending on if the user isn't online and is present in your guild. At the moment this is only open to those who currently are the leader of said guild however for those guilds with an inactive leader - staff will be able to change the leader however this isn't available at the current time.

Sometimes there comes a time when there is an update but one that is so small, that it requires being acknowledgment but grouped alongside other updates in a log. And guess what you have this log. The latest updates will be at the top. My updates will mainly be playerdex and forum theme based.



4th October 2011:

Playerdex now allows you to get a list of accounts by entering an email address. This can be found via the 'Forgotten account(s)' link.



2nd October 2011:

Bans are now logged on the server end, enabling us to allow Playerdex to display a user's reason for being banned in the future and if they're temp.

Fixed offline temp bans.

Also edited some NPCs ingame.



28th September 2011:

Guild tags were removed from the chat box, in the future I plan to replace this with a number 3-4 character tag for guilds which can be created via the Playerdex.



18th September 2011:

AFK kicks now happen at 5 minutes instead of 10 minutes. This still results in a 2 minute temp ban and you will also receive a warning at 3 minutes.

An issue was fixed with the Guild Bank in which users which were actually online, were counted as offline.

Shiny pokemon are now indicated in the Guild Bank.

Work has started on the next update for the forum theme.

I also had an attempt at replacing the current text shown on the welcome screen however it seems to have failed. Oh well, in my journey at least I managed to break the maps.



17th September 2011:

Guild Leadership Transfer option has arrived, now depending on if the user isn't online and is present in your guild. At the moment this is only open to those who currently are the leader of said guild however for those guilds with an inactive leader - staff will be able to change the leader however this isn't available at the current time.
