Want perfect white bleached hair? Well, you'll never get that without Out Of Control Bleach from the <a href=/explore/ticenter.php>Token Shop</a>.



Hope you all stocked up on your Alegarten drinks
because they are officially retired. :(



These little piggies just found their way to the <a href="http://www.subeta.net/shop.php?shopid=29">Plushie Parlour</a>! :)

The leaves have started changing around <a href=/explore/index.php>Subeta</a>, and it's started to get a bit chilly!

It won't be too long until everyone is visiting Melody, but until then you've got the November 2008 Donation Presents to keep you busy, which you can find in the <a href=/cashshop.php?act=items>Cash Shop</a>!

Congratulations to FCoD for winning a Potion of Purity in the Potion Lottery! The ticket was bought for them by !

<center><img src=http://subeta.net/images/battle/opponents/nightlady.gif></center> <br><br> The veil between worlds, at its thinnest, shimmers in the cool autumn air--and a keening wail sounds from the massive wormholes strewn about the area. <br><br> Just when you thought the worst was at hand, towering arachnids climb forth from the pits. These are the generals of the hellish army... <br><br> Flee, or <a href=/games/battle/challenge.php>meet your doom</a>!

<center><img src=http://subeta.net/images/battle/opponents/carrionlord.gif></center> <br /> The ground <a href=/battle/challengers.php>trembles under your feet</a>, and the souls of the damned cry out for release from their prison beneath the earth. <br /> Much to your horror, gargantuan worms tear their way out of the dank earth, hungry for flesh! You find yourself wishing, just for a moment, that it had been zombies instead...

As Morostide draws to an end, and the stock of Candy and other .. <i>treats</i> begins to run short, trick or treating has been shortened to every 5 minutes!

Enjoy the night Subetans, for soon Morostide will be over :(!

As Morostide celebrations draw to a close, the change is noticeable in Shadowglen. Master Skelly's <a href="/explore/pumpkins.php">pumpkin patch</a> has nearly been picked clean after its patrons have unearthed treasures and some less savory things. When the night gets darker and the wind gets chillier, the pets of Subeta become aware that it is time to find a home to retire until next year. Spirits, shades, cadavers and nightmares, some familiar and others new, all seek to put an end their wanderlust. Perhaps yours is the home for them?

Alerted to the swift downfall of their ethereal brethren, the Torchbearers have risen from the dark, hungry for the souls of the weak!

<a href=/games/battle/challenge.php>Dare you stand against their might?</a>

Greetings, Subetans!<br><br>
A while back, we told you that we wanted to involve all of you more in the decision-making process when it comes to the way the site is run, so we are presenting you with just such an opportunity today!<br><br>
As you may well know, we recently instituted double-blocking, a feature that automatically blocks anyone who has blocked you. We have received a lot of feedback on it; some has been positive, some has been negative, and all of it has been carefully considered. We have arrived at the conclusion that <i>you</i>, the users, should be the ones who ultimately decide whether or not we ought to keep this feature. However, before you head off to the <a href="/explore/polls.php">Polls</a>, you should carefully consider the pros and cons of the double-block system.<br><br>
Pros include a potentially marked decrease in the amount of drama onsite; if two people who normally fight and argue at every turn no longer exist for one another, the opportunity for the altercation to continue onsite is dramatically reduced. You don't have to manually track who has blocked you so that you can avoid posting on their threads, making responses to them that they'll never see, or bidding on their forum auctions with no chance of winning. It can greatly simplify what can sometimes become a complicated situation, particularly for those who find themselves frequently blocked by their peers.<br><br>
On the other hand, some people find that the Cons outweigh the benefits of the system. You cannot, for example, keep an eye out for users breaking rules to report to the moderation staff. Users may find their forum browsing experience significantly reduced if they are frequently blocked because they are unable to see posts from people by whom <i>they</i> might not personally be bothered or otherwise have no interest in blocking in return. Stickies, particularly those written by non-staff, may not be visible if the author has blocked you. Some unscrupulous users may even attempt to "cheat" out forum auctions by blocking all other bidders, effectively making their bids invisible to all but the auction-holder.<br><br>
As you can see, there is a lot to consider, and we hope that you will give this matter some serious thought before arriving at your final conclusion. After all, the future of Subeta is in your hands!<br><br>
Now <a href="/explore/polls.php">GO VOTE!</a>

<center><img src=http://subeta.net/images/battle/opponents/deathlyharbinger.gif></center> <br><br> It is said that the veil separating the world of the living from the world of the dead grows weakest at the end of Morostide. <br><br> In years past, it remained uncertain whether there was any truth to be found in this statement--<a href=/games/battle/challenge.php>but no longer</a>! <br><br> All manner of creatures from the Other Side are beginning to crawl from the shadows...and worse, they seem to be heralding the approach of something darker!



The <a href="http://www.subeta.net/explore/ticenter.php">Token Shop</a> has restocked a few of their morostide items for those
who missed out, so get them while you can! ;)



Scare all your friends with this new <a href="http://www.subeta.net/explore/gift.php">free</a> sticker! :)
