The staff of Aether II started working on rebuilding the new Aether in April 2004 after an initial week-long reunion for all players. The reception to the reunion was so strong that the decision to re-open the game was made. Collectively, the staff review applications, assist new players, and handle any administrative issues that crop up. The current administrative roster is detailed below, along with contact information for each member. If you wish to send e-mail to the entire staff, use this address: aether@mux.net. Please see the guidelines on the Mail page for sending in applications, questions, and requests.
We are also pleased to have Astraea sticking around as our creative consultant. We certainly could not be doing this without her and we greatly appreciate all of her help and support.
Staff would also like to thank Luna for all of her hard work in bringing the game back to life. Unfortunately, she has had to step down as our Goddess but we won't forget all she's done, thank you Luna!
Most MUSHes pay lip service to the idea of creating a game "for the players," but the staff at Aether would like to make this idea a reality. After all, a MUSH is nothing without its players. So while being a member of the staff can be a privilege, it is more importantly a duty. These duties include keeping in touch with the desires and needs of the players, responding promptly to requests and applications, maintaining the code and a stable site, and generally making sure the game runs smoothly and efficiently. This does not mean we will give the players everything they want and end up sacrificing the theme of the game, but we will do our best to integrate the players' wishes and needs based on what we believe is best for Aether.
