The Post Office is a GM4 custom module created to mimic a mail delivery system. Post Office 101, written by TheEpyonProject, is a how-to guide for using the Post Office. It can be read by using the book shown to the right.

Patrons receive their monthly rewards from the Post Office, which are always exclusively decorative. Occasionally special presents are awarded to players, by means of the Post Office. To celebrate the grand opening and beta version on Public Server 6, all players who used the Post Office were awarded the Commemorative Parcel Trophy.

This module was created by Sparks and the Player-to-Player mail by Misode.

Areas

Political District (Former Zoo)

At one point, this area was to be used as a Zoo, where animals and interesting creatures from all over the worlds were viewable. Due to time constraints and pressure from the authorities, construction for the Zoo slowed to a grinding halt. As a result, the partnership between MichaelMiner137 and Jetflix, formally known as Parks and Rec (PNR), declared bankruptcy. The Zoo would soon be demolished, and subsequently Platopia would be overrun by capitalism. Rumors and gossip about an election created a political tidal wave. Still holding rights to the land, MichaelMiner137 repurposed the Zoo into the Political District. And on Saturday, 20 February 2021, Gamemode 4 would see its first election.

Statues

Statue of [Admin] This statue is to honor his work on the GM4D server.

Quoted by Bloo: ------------------- These statues were unique and gave the world of gm4d an unexpected amount of liveliness, so here's some backstory to them: (quote continues...)

They were actually an unplanned addition to the server and were added by Special, TransportLayer, and me about 3 hours before the server opened. (quote continues...)

Each one depicts a staff member that helped with gm4d development and honored their invaluable work by portraying an action related to their job on the gm4d team (quote continues...)

Gm4d was a highly confidential project and only a handful of staff members actually knew about it during development (quote ends)

There are a number of statues can be found around Platopia.

Southeast Islands

Statues of three admins: Sparks, Crazyman47, and Bloo (replaced for [Admin] respectively), can be found near the southeast islands. A book with a written quote from Bloo__ is located in front of each statue. The book shown to the right reads the quote. The statues depict the admin's role in the creation the of Gamemode 4D server. Only three of the five statues have been recreated — the others lost or destroyed in the years prior.

GM4D Sparks
GM4D Crazyman
GM4D Bloo

A mysterious statue of a crying toad can be found in the southeast islands. No one knows how it came to be, though it is forever seen as crying.

It was once said that the Crying Toad statue was a comedian. Perhaps if it meets another toad, something special might happen?

Outskirts

To the south-west of Platopia one finds the last remnants of the royals that first settled in Platopia before kruthers made immigration to Platopia affordable to the masses in March 2020.

Village Valley

The earliest recorded settlements near Platopia, and the original location of Platopia can be found in Village Valley south-west of Platopia itself, however, these settlements were never called Platopia. Village Valley is located at 860, -1320 (Overworld) and is a prime location for tourists. These days Village Valley isn't the buzzing town it used to be anymore, as the center of attention shifted towards Platopia, a settlement founded during the immigration of March 2020. The Royal Platopia Post Office soon followed the new center of town to the Spawn Pad Plateau in today's Platopia.

Platopia Castle

The settlement that's called Platopia today didn't get it's name from some mythical source like a DragonEye3k, no. The name actually originates from the magnificent Castle that overlooks and secures Village Valley.

Platopia Castle is a large defensive structure located at 780, -1270 (Overworld). It's original purpose was to protect the strategic valley that opens towards Platopia Bay in the north. However, it has long lost it's purpose as a military structure and today serves as the headquarters of the Royal Lands of Platopia organisation, the organisation behind the Royal Platopia Party (RPP). The Royal Lands of Platopia organisation and the Royal Platopia Party manage the Royal Post Office service and are partly involved in the Historic Preservation Organisation. The RPP's main interests are:

Preservation of sites of historical importance
Preservation of nature
Abolishment of Villager Slavery
Unity for all Mankind as comrades of the Royal Lands of Platopia

Platopia Castle was built upon a spring with magical properties, some say drinking from it's water turns your spirit into a Hedgehog called Sanic.
