==== A Fourth Freedom Server has been launched - Celebration ===='''PvP Changes'''
From Rolf (mail): "All this means After a week of discussion with the dev team, we ave compiled a list of changes that it's time we feel help improve the current mechanics of PvP servers, as well as pacing the way for Celebrationthe larger update later in the year. These changed are now open for discussion and feedback, so and we're opening a new Freedom server will for with you over the following week to ensure that name tomorrow! Isn't that great?they are positive changes.
==== A Third Freedom Server has been launched - Exodus ===='''Easter!'''
From Rolf (blog): "The Deliverance server Easter is still being settledupon us, and I’ve decide to release even more land south of it. that mean several things, namely, the Easter bunny! The Exodus server bunny will be made available tomorrow at 18now spawn automatically on Easter, rather than being summoned.00 CET (September 15They will spawn around the starter deed, 2011).so keep your eyes peeled!
The idea is that it will cater for those who felt they missed out on the soft spots of Deliverance. I think Exodus is a beautiful server personally, but I may be shooting off the target with it because it’s so infested with creatures that I fear people will die. Instead of successfully settling the land, they will respawn at the start village without their tools and weapons, surrounded by equally fragile newbies'''Easter Impalong.'''
If you decide to go thereThere's an impalong at the amazing Hill of Swedes deed on Deliverance this weekend, do not blame me for leading you with Daash and co. putting on! I a tremendous setup, one of my favorite impalong locations so far (Okay, ill admit, they have tried to warn youall been my favorite). You will need to survive long enough to settle down. Then againAlready some strange mobs have been sighted, backing up into as well as the water or onto sound of GM's chuckling as they assault the boat should suffice poor Wurmians. I'll be popping in most situations I guess.from time to time over the weekend and hope to see you all there!
What you who start as newbies somewhere in the center area will do I don’t know. I think you will have to slowly wear down the wall of critters with your own wall of meat and maybe build some towers to help clear the way."<br><small>--[[User:Mirabelle|Mirabelle]] 11:42, 23 September 2011 (UTC)</small>'''Cave dwellings public testing!'''
==== A Second Freedom Server has This weekend is the launch of our public testing for cave dwellings! I've been launched - Deliverance ====working hard this week on setting up a huge cavern for you all to jump in and build your very own home underground, but thats not all...

We shall call it Deliverance and it will 'll be the new default server hosting a special giveaway for newbies.This historical land rush event – the first in several years – is scheduled Tuesday at 18.00 hrs CET (the 6th of Sept). The new lands will be located south of the existing Independence server those who have jumped on and tested it out, upon testing, you will 'll be able to sail there. The only portal fill out a quick survey about your experience and ensure that leads to it all went smoothly. Five lucky testers will be from the tutorial server.

==== 50/50 ratio for aggressive and non-aggressive animals ====The thread with all the info will go live early tomorrow in the public testing board, s make sure you check it out!
To help remedy the controversy between Wurmian hunters and breeders'''I spy with my little eye, the creature spawning/breeding now has two pools where 50% is reserved for aggressive animals and 50% for non-aggressive. This should even out over time. When a cap is reached you will not be able to breed more animalssomething begging with !, but already pregnant animals will still give birth.

==== Goodbye Home Servers ====Enki has put together a wonderful fun hunt for the next weekend on Pristine, I tested it myself and it proved to be quite entertain, If you're a professional Treasure hunter, or a master at i spy, pr just awesome at jigsaw puzzles, this hunt is bound to be your kind of thing!
A melancholy day in Wurm Online as the much loved home servers are removed for goodThe hunt starts on March 22. Such is the price of progress however, as the new Freedom server has been booming in player activity, reaching a peak player count of over two-hundred. Characters on Jenn-Kellon and Mol-Rehan home who have had premium in the past but who didn. You't migrate have now been moved to the wild server, and the others who ll have never been premium were deleted. In unrelated news, the artifacts on the wild server have been reset and the race is on once again to find themask Enki about that one. <br><small>[[User:Robert|Jup]] 04:19, 16 July 2009 (CDT)</small>
==== Freedom Server ====--[[User:Zachariah|Zachariah]] ([[User talk:Zachariah|talk]]) 19:33, 25 March 2016 (CET)
New lands exist to be explored! The [[Freedom]] server has no player versus player combat, no resource [[QL]] cap, and is [[premium]] only. You can find this exciting new server by sailing south of the home servers or taking a [[Item:Freedom_stones|freedom stone]]. The home servers will both be shutting down in a few weeks, cutting Freedom off from [[Wild]]. Other changes include new player models for Freedom, new ground textures, and much more!<br>--<small>[[User:Thorgot|thorgot]] 10:17, 23 June 2009 (CDT)</small><br>=== Pristine Treasure Hunt ===

==== New Sandbox/Tutorial Server ====At this moment only a few details have been given as it must be tested first.
A new server has been launched The hunt will be an I spy game. You will be given a piece of a map with a location marked n it. It will be up to help players new you to Wurm become more easily acquainted with find out where it is and what it is based on the Game. Also Jenn-Kellon home is no longer free-to-play.<br/>See [[Wurm Server Release History#090114|here for a more detailed list]] clue given by examining each item of the changes.<br/><small>--http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/8964/duckieta2hunt.gif[[User:Lainiwakura|Lain Iwakura]] 12:34, 15 January 2009 (CST)</small>
==== Mol-Rehan Home ====Each window will consist of a code to retrieve the net piece of the map and the description of the next object you are looking for. The map pieces will be like a puzzle, it will be up to you to determine the proper orientation of the pieces on the map as I have randomly turned most of them 90 or 180 degrees. I promise you none of them are turned 270 degrees, if you find any that are in just means you went the long way around.
There is I will '''''warn''''' you right now a second home serverthat you will only get one chance to read each clue. Once you close or lose the window, this one is it's gone for the kingdom of Mol-Rehan good. So be careful and is premium only. It is located to get the west of clue the wild server and is a completely new land mass.first time every time!

Boats and ships can now be made on the main servers. They require a lot of parts to be made though, so you will need more than one person working on one to complete it!/Enki (Head Game Master)

Boats are currently in pubilc testing on the [[test server]http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/139422-patch-notes-16mar16/ Patch Notes], so to help Rolf finish the code and get them implemented into the main servers test them and post bugs in the City Hall topic on boats.

After a long period of time in the blind spot Haven is now visible, 19 April 2008 (CDT)</small>and with it some exciting changes! We plan on introducing more information behind the mystery of Haven as time goes on, but the first change is slightly obvious given the examine text...
==== Forums back up ====We have started working on the foundation of a new tutorial and will be replacing the Golden Valley map that is currently live. Currently the project is still in its early stages, with planning and preperation being done before introducing the new map. As Golden Valley is also the login server, migrating databases is a little tricky, so due to this we will simply be changing the map with all items and buildings remaining. We will then have the current tutorial operating while we build the new tutorial behind the scenes.
The Wurm Online forums are back upAs mentioned last week, unfortunately they were wipedSolmark has stepped down as Lead Forum Moderator, so re-register to enjoy a peaceful retirement as a CA. I'm pleased to announce that Firestarter has filled the shoes of LFM, with Pandalet taking over as Assistant LFM. We will continue to work closely to ensure that practices remain as transparent and get postingsmoothly operating as possible.

We will discuss this most likely on Monday or Tuesday, and have something ready to put forward next week in regards to changes and outlines, so stay tuned!
==== Web server hacked ====This week saw a fix for caves that had large spaces with floors that weren't reinforced. This affected a few players negatively, and was quickly removed. We apologise for the inconvenience caused, and I have arranged with the GM team that any heratige sites that have had veins appear from this issue can have them removed via support ticket. Please note this is for heratige sites only.
