Event Idea: Running Riot

[Fidel Castro]

I wish it was as simple as you make it sound. I don't disclose every little thing that the Era staff team does, or has to do, or has going on, but if you / others were to know you'd understand why it's just not that simple. There are projects going on, other projects that have gotten green lights that are waiting to be worked on, and ideas that still have to get a green light to begin production.

I agree events should be updated more, and it's something Ice and I open dialogue over on a consistent basis, which has led to some good ideas and things I'd like to see done. Ice alone has fixed over 5-6 of the PK events you speak of.. so I'm not sure which events you are referring to there.

I do like his idea, but as I outlined above, it's not as easy as saying, "hey, go make this." Scripters, as they are in a limited amount at the current time on Era (worded weird, I know), are all currently tied up in projects that we had discussed before. That being said, I have been thinking about doing an open hiring thread for scripters, as well as general devs, which I could specifically assign to certain parts of the server (such as events).

I have no doubt there are others that echo your sentiment, so perhaps I'll speed up the process of looking for a few more devs that I could assign strictly to event-related purposes. It's not a "snap my fingers and done" kind of thing, but you have my attention, and I won't just forget about it and move on. Let's see if we can work together to get some of these things done.

I appreciate your input, as well as every other player that has constructive things to say. I do not frown upon it, so feel free to add more ideas/suggestions in this thread or via forum PM. I am tied up in 20 different things at the moment on player (a lot of which I cannot discuss) so, as you saw, answering PMs for me is a bit tasking at the moment, though I try to open myself up late at night (as you saw the other night) to be able to talk, etc.

Hope I covered what you said, if I didn't, I can try to cover what may have been misconstrued by myself.
