I hope I have time to address some concerns that have been expressed over the last couple of months, a State of Lineage II Address, if you will.

The last few months have been very difficult times for the Lineage II Team. We have had some company reorganization and have all been relocated to Seattle during this time, so it has been challenging to keep our day to day operations at the high standard we all strive for. The launch of Gracia Final and the continued monthly events were tasks that seemed impossible to complete on schedule about Lineage2 Adena. However, with a lot of hard work from all of our team members, we were able to keep these things on schedule. Even with this, I know not everything has worked out as I had hoped. The cancellation of our original plan to overhaul the website and the lack of constant forum moderation are two examples of things that I wish could have been different. We sincerely apologize for these inconveniences and thank you very much for all of your patience.

Marissa "Moxie" Mcwaters has fully transitioned from the Austin office and is now fully available for her duties here in Seattle. I have more good news today!

Lauren "Lyzira" Duncan has joined the Lineage II team as our Community Manager! Lyzira has a history of community experience and is joining us after spending the last year with the Exteel and Lineage communities. She has been with NCsoft for over 2 years and has prior Quality Assurance experience about Lineage2 Adena. She has a long history of MMO experience both as a player and in the industry. We believe she will be a tremendous asset to the Lineage II community and to the Lineage II Team as a whole.

Please know that not everything is going to be updated and changed in a short period of time, but these things are priorities for us, so they will be in good time.
