Where do you fit into the City of Neoxian?

A lot of people come here and get sucked into the friendliness of our server. Some people want to take on roles in the city, others just want to chat and have a good time. There's nothing wrong with either!

What we haven't seen many of though is those wanting to create new roles and responsibilities for themselves in Neoxian City.
Our Dragonmaster Neoxian is always open to new ideas.

Do you have a special talent? Let us see! Join our Discord chat.
We encourage growth here. What benefits us, also benefits you.

We have already started a School, A Luanti server, A banking service, games, and so much more.

           Let's Talk About Alcohol & Your Health

It's festive period and an excuse for many to take alcohol, even those who have abstained all year long.
Alcohol is one of the most commonly consumed substances in the world but its effects on the body are often ignored or belittled.

We will divide the effects of alcohol into short term and long term.

Short-Term Effects;

You may experience immediately after drinking or even while still drinking.

Dizziness and poor coordination
Slurred speech
Reduced judgment and risky behaviour
Nausea and vomiting
Headache/hangover
Blackouts or memory loss
Excessive Urination

Long-Term Effects of Alcohol
This is the major reason why one should be careful of alcohol and excessive consumption because at the time these effects are setting in, very little can be done.

Liver diseases; the liver is overworked by frequent and large volumes of alcohol. Overtime, various liver problems manifest such as; fatty liver disease and the dreaded hepatitis, including liver cancer
Heart problems; long term consumption can weaken the heart muscle, leading to conditions like arrhythmia and high blood pressure which increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Ulcers & Gastritis: alcohol may cause damage to the lining of digestive tract leading to ulcers in the stomach and esophagus.
Alcohol Dependence; with time the individual becomes unable to stop or control alcohol use despite these negative effects
Road traffic accidents; from drunk drivers or even pedestrians.
Domestic violence Towards loved ones; alcohol can lead to aggression and violent behaviour, even loved ones are not spared when alcohol impairs judgement.

Prevention / Responsible Use

Never drink and drive
Eat before drinking
Avoid binge drinking
Find better stress-relief methods (exercise, hobbies, music)

Remember: The earlier you intervene, the easier recovery becomes. Take control of your life, don't let alcohol do it for you.

Curation Station!

Our curators regularly scour the whole of Neoxian to find the best and sometimes most undervalued work to send into planetary orbit with our humungous weighted curation trail. If you observe our tribe we have one of the best trending pages and that is because our administration team weight the trail down with their HUGE votes.

These are our picks:

Please note: We only support original content here.
We will exact vengeance with extreme prejudice on plagiarists and spammers.

We also take our tags seriously.

So please try and use the relevant tags as we will only vote on those with them. We won't be voting a picture of your cat with SPT for example. SPT is for Splinterlands.

Our best picks of the week will be featured on our weekly newspaper highlights.
