Some of you may have noticed a temporary layout glitch the past couple hours. I've been speaking with our Coder, and we're trying to get to the bottom of what's causing this.
In the meantime, if you press ctrl+F5 to do a hard refresh, this should stop the problem from happening again for you. However, if this doesn't sort out the issue, please submit a report to the Issue Hub, preferably with a screenshot of how the site looks for you. :}
We apologize for the strangeness and any inconvenience caused by this glitch! We'll hopefully have it resolved very soon!

For winners - you will be messaged as soon as possible, I have to get responses from the place above you before I can send you a message to choose your prize :)
For all other entries, you can expect your 5k prize for participating within the next few days. Thank you for your patience, and thank you to all who participated!

In regards to Screenshots and Hate

Hello All,
I'm posting to talk about the rumors of all staff hating certain players on this website and people stating they have screenshot proof.
We can not control the private conversations staff members have off-site, with the exception being if a staff member were to directly contact you and harass you.
However, sharing screenshots, quotes, or other information about how another player hates them is against our rules. This breaks General Rule 3 regarding harassment. Going around telling people hate someone is not alright to do on Alacrity. If we discover any players sharing screenshots or quotes, or stating to other players they have proof all staff hates them, we will be forced to write you up for General Rule 3 and for General Rule 2 for disregarding this post. We do not wish to do that.
If you ever receive screenshots, quotes or anything else stating a staff member hates you, or you believe a staff member is mistreating you out of hate, please report it to us Admins. You can do so by going to the Issue Hub and writing an issue directly to us. We will always investigate. If you feel that during this current incident you have been wronged, please come to us admins in the Issue Hub.
If you are presented with screenshots of this kind, and do not feel comfortable with a particular staff member handling your issues, you can also make your case to admins and we will give very serious consideration to this. We don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable or unsafe, and we will not require a member to receive disciplinary action from a staff member who you may suspect is acting out of a negative bias, if we feel that becomes the appropriate exception.
As for our staff members, please take this into consideration. Do not be cavalier with any frustrations you may have that come with your positions on this site. Even off-site, your statements can reflect poorly on us, and can make our players uncomfortable. Like with any business, you still represent us when you're not working, and if it becomes a trend or a recurring problem that begins to harm the business, we will be forced to consider disciplinary action, if not de-staffing. We don't want to have to do this, and we want you to be able to have freedom off-site, but you must also take responsibility for the people you speak to, who may decide to screenshot anything you say
Again, if you have questions or wish to talk to an admin about how you were treated or a screenshot you received, please go to the Admin Issue Hub. However otherwise we do not wish to see this discussed anywhere on the site outside of the Admin Hub.
Thank you,
