<p>We have taken steps to try and increase the popularity and player base of the shard.</p>
<p>Now I&rsquo;m sure you all know how this works as some shard you have been on at some point in time will have had one of these, however I will post it here again to explain.</p>

<p>Feel free to click these up to once a day as increase the player base means increasing the fun.</p>
