Welcome to Oberin!
Oberin is an online fantasy role-playing game and virtual community, available exclusively for Macintosh. Oberin takes place in a persistent, ever evolving world -- your character may come and go, but the world continuously runs.
While there are many separate quests that can be completed in Oberin, there is no ultimate goal when playing. The journey is the reward. It's an online fantasy world where the fun comes from interacting with other real players. You can join a group of fellow players to hunt for dragons, spend a quiet day fishing, meet a friend at the pub for a game of chess, or spend some time refining your chosen skills.
Do you have questions? Do you want to discuss Oberin?

Note: The gaming system is in a state of flux and information on the web site might not always accurately reflect the current state of the game.

The survey I posted previously is now closed.
I received an email today stating the data collection part is now over and they are beginning the analysis of the data. He wants to thank everyone for your time and results will be posted in late summer or fall.

| News: University Survey (not Oberin news) |

I received an email about a survey that wants MMO players to participate. I get emails about Oberin all the time wanting one thing or another but this one really peaked my interest. So I'm making a news post about it.
I am doing undergraduate research at Eastern Kentucky University with Dr. Dan Florell. We are looking for a sample for our research. We were wondering if we could use members of your website as subjects. This research will be completely anonymous. They will be just sharing their opinions about various aspects of MMORPGs.
I did the survey and I am interested to see what the results will be.
Here is the link for the survey, it takes about 20 minutes or maybe a little longer. It's not Oberin related and it's completely anonymous.

| Character Deletion Delay Reduced |
|
| On Thursday, April 03, 2008 Stefan wrote : |
To make it easier for everyone to try out new classes before making a final choice, and in anticipation of what's to come, we decided to reduce the delay between creating a character and deleting that character from 3 days to one day (24 hours).
In order to delete one of your characters, you have to select "Request Character Deletion" in the "Management" menu of the Character Creator. If your character is more than 24 hours old, you should be able to delete it. If you encounter any problem, feel free to call a Game Master in game or to open a topic in the Support forum.
Please remember that you are only allowed to have 2 characters per account, and that it is not possible to recover a deleted character.

| Great Blue Moon Festival |
|
| On Monday, December 03, 2007 Jinker wrote : |
Now that the Blue Moon Festival is over I would like to thank you all for being very polite the entire time. I hope everyone had fun, we were a little short handed this time around but I think we involved a good lot of you in games and auctions. It was fun for me and I'm sure for the other GM's as well.
Thanks :)

Once again we are moving the server, hopefully for the last time. :)
As of today the server is back to Jinker's old G4, with a shiny brand new router which should work as intended. We estimate a downtime of about 20-30 minutes from the moment this is posted.
It may a while for the DNS to update properly, so the server status image in the corner might not be accurate the first few hours. Also, you may have to type "obi.mine.nu" in the server field to be able to connect.
Could it be the true end of lag? Fingers crossed! ;)
