Dan,

Yeah, we have a lot of active builders, and a lot of really awesome players.

We've been working on the Kordan quest line to add more stopping
points in the middle - the old version ramped up very quickly in
difficulty, going from the level 11 or 12 spider and gnome quests up
to level 16-18 quests, and a lot of players couldn't handle that much
of a jump at once.  We lowered the level of the stone dragon down to
around level 13, and added the haunted hills quests at around level 14
to help out with that.

I think the new quest chain makes more sense too, which is always
good.  People seem to really have a lot of fun in the haunted hills,
and I don't know if anyone has actually discovered all of the loot
items in it yet.
