Alert	Apr. 30	As announced previously, Prism Party is migrating to an independent web-host today.

Prism Party is not shutting down or experiencing connectivity issues, otherwise. Access to other areas of the prismparty.net domain may be temporarily impacted (eg. bans.prismparty.net, worldmap.prismparty.net). Access to these services will be restored soon, if lost.

Addition	Feb. 5	Added a new user-selectable role for those interested in editing the new Prism Party website. This role will grant you access to related channels. [Roles → Extras]

This means that until Valentine's Day, Bedrock players will be unable to open crates. Java players can still use the crates at spawn. Prizes gained through the use of this exploit are being reclaimed. Refunds for spent keys will not be provided.
Addition	Jan. 29	Added 'Mangrove wood' to the Lumberjack job.
Addition	Jan. 19	Added Essence Bundle Keys which can be obtained from the Paragon crate. This suggestion was from Ladranaa.
Addition	Jan. 19	Housing Deeds have been added to the Paragon crate. Housing Deeds can be traded to Staff to grant a player build access to any house at /spawn. There are a few rules for home ownership: Entities and tile entities are not allowed in excess as this may cause lag for other players. You may decorate the outside of your house, but you may not modify it too extensively (similar rules to shops). You may invite others to build with you, but you must contact staff for this. Some houses may be split across different floors in the same building. Be mindful of your neighbors above/below you! Once you get a house, you cannot move to another house in spawn. You can sell a house to another player, but you must contact staff to transfer it. If you go inactive for three or more months, your house will be reset and made available for others to claim. Staff have final jurisdiction over all Spawn housing decisions.
Addition	Jan. 15	Age range has been added as a /bio option.
Addition	Jan. 15	/bio has been re-added! In line with our previous announcement, a replacement for the previous /bio command has been implemented! The new command will allow you to select your pronouns, gender, and orientation from a menu to display in chat—just like before—but your bio selections in-game will now also sync with your Discord profiles, if linked. We will continue to add more options to the new system as time goes on (as well as the ability to select multiple pronouns), so if you have any suggestions: let us know! In the meantime, be sure to re-apply your bio as the old settings have not been retained. Thank you for your continued patience.
Removal	Jan. 15	Hey, everyone! Unfortunately, we've had some irreconcilable issues with the /bio and Shop plugins, resulting in their immediate removal. We're currently testing replacements, but these features will be missing until a replacement is tested and added. Market taxes have been suspended until this is resolved. If you have ideas for replacement plugins, please open a suggestions ticket in #general-support Do note that we already have plugins we are looking at, but we aren't opposed to changing our minds if a good enough candidate is suggested. Thank you for being patient with us as we transition to a new system.
Alert	Jan. 8	The Power Level requirement for /level 15 has been reduced to 375.
Addition	Jan. 5	Added /dc as an alias for Donor Chat. Lowered player sleep requirement to 35%. /stonecutter, /smithingtable, /loom, etc... now exist as commands for level 20+.
Fix	Jan. 5	Fixed a bug which sometimes caused /tags to charge you twice for a tag. Ruby tag now works again in Survival. Dying while in 1.19.3 no longer causes the server to send duplicated join/leave messages.
Removal	Jan. 5	The Rift has been removed! A world download will be made available later.
Alert	Jan. 4	Today is the final day the Rift will be available to players. Any items (chests and shulkers included) not removed will be lost forever after tonight! An announcement will be made later containing the winners of both contests and a download for the world.
