Hello Aethro Community,
First off, I want to apologize for my absence, especially over these past few weeks. Life has been hectic with work commitments and rebuilding the entire Aethro Listings system due to unforeseen challenges. It’s taken more time and energy than I initially planned, but progress is being made, and I appreciate your patience.
Website Updates and Current Progress
I’ve been working on updating the main website, Aethro.net, to the latest back-end software version. Unfortunately, the update didn’t go as smoothly as expected—it crashed entirely, forcing me to rebuild it from scratch. While this has been a time-consuming process, I’ve made significant progress. However, with Thanksgiving here, I’ve decided to pause and spend much-needed time with my family. Work on the site will resume this Saturday.
Here’s what you can expect with the new version:
• Totally Redesigned Layout: A fresh look to enhance your experience navigating the site.
• Minecraft Section Revamp: We’re improving the Minecraft section to include more detailed information, though the wiki will still remain the primary resource for in-depth details.
• Cost-Effective Storefront: We’re shifting to an in-house system for the storefront, which will help cut down on costs and improve efficiency.
• World of Warcraft Game Expansion: With our WoW game launch coming soon, dedicated pages and resources will be added to the site.
• Aethro Listings Integration: You can now easily find a link to Aethro Listings in the top navigation bar, connecting our services seamlessly.
Transparency and Leadership
I understand that an absent owner raises concerns, especially after three years of building this community. Please know I’ve been active behind the scenes, working hard to address challenges and move Aethro forward.
A big shoutout to Whabnotfound for stepping up and keeping the gaming side of Aethro running smoothly. He’s been in regular contact with me, ensuring the servers are up-to-date and managing what he can to keep things moving forward. His leadership has been invaluable, and I’m grateful for his support.
Looking Ahead
I’ll share more details on Saturday about what lies ahead for Aethro, including upcoming features and long-term goals. Until then, please enjoy the holiday season, and thank you for sticking with us through these transitions. Your patience and loyalty mean the world to me, and I’m excited to show you what’s coming next.
Happy Thanksgiving,
Paul
Owner, Aethro
