Greetings Friends and Avatars! Happy Friday to you all, and I hope you all survived what has been a crazy busy week for many of us.  I have a lot I want to cover so this will beone of two posts for a Friday.

Release 3 officially started Feb 20th.  Those of you who have had a chance to jump in and try things have been a great source of feedback already for Portalarium. Based on my conversations with many individuals on the forum as well as in IRC chat, it sounds as if most people have a renewed sense of confidence and excitement for the game.  With the addition of more crafting recipes (now up to 153), some changes to recipes, emotes, merchant interaction (buying/selling), as well as Open Multiplayer Online mode…. we have a chance to interact with our friends, peers, and dev team members.  Today in fact FireLotus was having an in-game “hide and seek” contest with community members.

Also, Baron Violation and our friends at sotawiki.net held a Q&A Google Hangout which I will include below. Some great Info for everyone to follow up on. I will also include a video of the emotes that one sota forum ember posted.  Community feedback in the forums as well as youtube videos are always welcome both in the forums as well as on social media.  If you see great ones, share with the community and family and friends.
