Thank you for 11 wonderful years!

What a wonderful night! Seldom have I had so much fun and seen so much happiness. Fitting for the day of happiness I suppose and what a sight. This definitely won't be last time, so if you missed it there is always next time. The impressions of this night are below. Thank you all for making it such a great night and sharing the love with everyone. Special thanks goes out to Niki and Mattie for putting the event together and our guest of honor, Ubit, for the years of hard work on the platform we all love!

ZetaWorlds turns 11! March 20th!



Over a decade. Time sure flies when you are putting your passion into something. On the 20th of March we celebrate 11 years of ZetaWorlds!
As usual Welcome will host a number of DJs and a live act to make the evening unique!

The night kicks off at 10am grid time with a small get together after which the music will roll in. If you have a burning question or just want to chat come along.

Nora Cola will kick off with a happiness birthday electro music mix at 11am.
Followed by whacky hour with Hazel Ito with her unique almost electric but eclectic mix.
1pm sees Ruud vandeSande with one of his top hits birthday mixes!
At 2pm the one and only Mathilda Stark will go full throttle for the occasion!
Ernest Moncrieff then picks us some tunes on his guitar, don't miss this!
Rounding out the evening is Edison Rex with his favorites, followed by yours truly playing until you drop.

Come along and celebrate with us and raise your glasses for the next 11 years to come!...

Pricing changes in March

It annoys me to no end that everyone under the sun is chasing revenue in times of higher inflation, because it is entirely counterproductive to the problem. More than content to keep pricing as is for the last few years, but steep increases in cost of supplies are forcing my hand in this regard. Two of our suppliers have announced changes to the tune of 30% or more, which leaves no buffer to keep pricing as is. I still don't like the idea of passing on all of that to you, because that doesn't help anyone. Instead starting March 1st this year the pricing for most packages will change by about 5-10% at most. After that date the processing fees for every transaction will also change from 4% to 5% in order to align with the changes our payment processors have made in recent years. Rest assured, as usual, existing services are not affected by the price changes, only transaction fees will be raised on existing services.

The full list of changes is as follows:
Full Sim           18,99€ -> 19,99€
Super Sim         26,99€  -> 28,99€
Mega Var          29,99€  -> 33,99€
Oceanside        20,99€  -> 22,99€
Archipelago       59,99€  -> 63,99€
Water Regions  15,99€  -> 16,99€

We will likely hold some sales during this year as well, if I can muster the creativity to come up with some cheeky names for them. I continue to look for ways to reduce operational costs while enhancing performance, but unfortunately inflation is a beast I can't tackle on my own and our suppliers refuse to join the fight it seems.
