    Hello Shotbow! Winterfest is starting so I hope you're all excited about that. Over the last month some exciting things happened, such as the 1.16 Annihilation playtests and the MineZ Christmas Build Competition! I'm your host Axyy and I will be taking you through what happened during November.

    Network Updates
    New Muting System
    I'm happy to announce that we're no longer banning for Mild-Chat offenses. We now have a new muting system which allows us to punish chat offenders accordingly. Please note, we will still be banning people for extreme chat offenses.

    If you're permanently banned for chat offenses you may appeal it here.

    Black Friday & Thanksgiving
    Last week we activated a 30% sale on purchases made at the Shotbow Store. Additionally, we had a 3x XP-Multiplier to celebrate Thanksgiving.

    Event Section
    Do you enjoy participating in events? Then you're definitely in the right place! We now have an official Events Section on our Discord server. From now on all upcoming events will be announced in the #event-news channel, so make sure to keep an eye out for that. Would you like to be notified? Use the #notifications channel to select your roles.

    We're also giving you the opportunity to come up with event suggestions, and we will read through ALL of them! Before posting your ideas, make sure to mark them with the respective gamemode tag. Once a suggestion is being looked into it will be given the considering tag. After that, the suggestion will either be accepted or denied.
