Well, maybe the Events Team shouldn't use Mass Messaging at all if it's an RP event. I mean, if a wounded apprentice comes wandering into town looking for help, the whole world isn't going to hear about it, only the people in town will.
Or maybe even better, don't give the Events Team a special tag, just have them start a roleplaying event at random, and only those who participate by choice because they want to take part in some RP will end up getting through it, not people that just rush over because they think they'll get a prize of some sort.
Just an idea though.
