Aion: Fergus McGreedy’s Little Headache
Mar 17th
Fergus McGreedy, the greedy little leprechaun of Atreia, is feeling the pinch from Shugo tax collectors who have finally figured out how to tax his amassed riches, but he's got a plan to screw the Shugo bankers out of their money: give it away to his fellow leprechauns! Unfortunately, Fergus has lost his glasses and cannot see properly as a result, opening the way for players to dress up in green in order to trick Fergus out of his money! I guess there's no harm in scamming a greedy little leprechaun out of his money, right?

This won't necessarily be as easy as it sounds, however, as Fergus loves to tell stories of his past adventures — which have a tendency to take on a life of their own! Be sure to bring your sword and shield when you visit Fergus, who will be at the Apellbine tavern in Pandaemonium and Dionysia tavern in Sanctum from 5:30-8:30PM CDT today.
Players will be provided dye when they login today, and if you happen to miss Fergus, you'll still be able to receive the dye if you login through Thursday, March 18th.

NCsoft: New Measures for Anti-Game Addiction under Preparation
Mar 11th
Kim Choe Jin from NCsoft
Recently, Kim Choe Jin from NCsoft expressed in a committee meeting that the issue of game addiction prevention couldn’t be ignored and effective special measures were currently under discussion. On the same day, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of the Republic of Korea also brought forth a scheme to increase budgets on anti-game addiction. It seems that NCsoft and the said Ministry share the same opinion on this aspect, but their specific measures are a bit different.
One of the measures to be taken by the Ministry to prevent the online game addiction is “extend the Fatigue System“, while the proposed prevention measures of NCsoft are more than that. According to the report, NCsoft’s new anti-addiction system will be composed of a Relax system targeting at adult gamers and a Cool Time system targeting at teenagers.
Aside from measures for protecting teenagers, NCsoft is also preparing an anti-addiction system for adults, which is the core of its prevention measures this time. The upcoming measures will not only impose time limitations in games but also take excessive game playing behavior based on realistic time into the prevention range.
