Events Do Not Make Up For Content!
|
Is anyone else here sick and tired of seeing the same server over and over which only has events to keep it's name up? I'm seriously tired of the same server over and over with a giant 1000000000000 level events house with 320948092.9 events. It's so stupid. To make up for nothing to do, they add events!
It pisses me off when players EXPECT events. Events were originally rare things held to get the graal community together and shove some competition up everyone's bums. Now it's just players wanting 5 events a day on any given server. It's really taken graal and is not doing it any good.
Speaking of players expecting events...
A great example would be Zone. Players there expect us to host everyother day, whether for an item or not. Events are not something you ask for. They're something you should appreciate getting even if it is once or twice a week.
I just wish servers would stop thinking that event houses are a vital part of server development. I'd rather see a server be more flexible and implement "events" into their OW.
Examples would include Xone's kingdom wars, constant server wars between Sanstrata and Mithica, and such. It's so much better then placing a 50 foot event house. |
