These things are not as black and white as people like to make them. You can point the finger, it's easy. Understanding is a little harder.

Maroku has historically been active and dedicated - for a few years now. He's been able to adjust to changes and follow new protocols we've specified to help prevent any sort of nonconformances.

If it was found that any specific individual within our team was responsible for a problem, regardless of considerations and responsibilities, it's always difficult to replace a trained, experienced staff member. This is especially true with volunteers. Understanding is the key here and it needs to be applied.

It would be good if kingdoms could step in to fill the event void. The problem is that it's difficult for any single kingdom to get enough players on to have a decent event. Maybe there could be something like an agreement between all the kingdoms where each kingdom puts up an equal amount of money (or prizes of equivalent value) to host events that members of any kingdom (but only people who are members of a kingdom) would be allowed to participate in.

Feel free to replace Events with any organization we've been part of, they all could benefit.
If anyone is interested in being an EM, please do speak up. If you are seriously interested, Forum PM me or Contact me in-game. It's obvious we need more EM's, and it would be great to see players interested in seriously taking up a position(s) as EM.

So how come there hasn't been any input at all in this thread for 30 days by the Events Admin himself? One would think this thread is very much his turf.

We (Pat and myself) mention it to Maroku every day he's on (about twice a month) that we're more than willing to host for him again, all he needs to do is supply the tags and a small amount of prizes, half the time we used our own items. He refuses every time. It's clear that he thinks he has things under control.

I normally don't agree with you but your right on this. He does think he has it under control OR he has no time right now OR he doesn't want to rehire you two.

I do not want to be an Events Master again. I've had enough solid tenures. However, I do support the fact that PoJo would probably play a lot more than he already does if he had a tag and the ability to host. Me and PoJo used to give out our own items because the refills stopped us from hosting as much as we wanted.

It is hard to add Emīs for Graal Kingdoms but if i find anyone able to host for GK i try to add him.

It is easy to abuse rights so we need trust from all current ems and new emīs if we add rights etc.We have logs but i dont look into them each day (only if something happened and got reported). but the fact is if something happens , it happened.

I dont like to Rehire Emīs cuz then it looks they lost intrest from the last time beeing hired and it wont change atall. (but its not impossible to get rehired if we really lack of activity). And its way easyer to rehire if i know he hosted very good and had much contact with me.

Personally i dont really like to host things like Waterglass,Musical Chairs etc cuz i dont need my creativity for it. I love my job cuz i can use my creativity alone or i share it with my team.

Im sure we will fix the lack of events soon by hiring more active players or adding more content to graal kingdoms

There kind of doesn't need to be more events... The player count is so low all it'll do is flood more EC's than needed into the economy.

I think enough EC's are handed out daily, and whoever spoke of a 20-ec-a-day extravaganza, stfu.

Maroku's quest has been a breath of fresh air, sure, i miss the old events but it's not even been a week since i last played one, you're acting as if it's a year down the line and Maroku's been only hosting these quests...

I actually miss hosting to be honest. I've been playing with ideas to pass onto maroku just to try out.

Our awesome event marathons had only a few ECs, it was mostly things like RoTs and Ice Shields and FIDs that Pat and myself had of our own, Maroku couldn't supply prizes. u stfu, it was something to do that everyone could be involved in.

The playercount was 30-40 during me and Pat's time. I'm not saying it was because of us there was a high playercount (probably was though, just saying), but because of the almost constant events and things to do, people were more likely to log on spread around the EC and other prizes.

These mediocre "quests" that are the same every few weeks are the only ones that get hosted. Zelt is rarely on, but that shouldn't be a problem, we have more EMs. Maroku is inactive. Ok, not good, but we have more EMs, right? No, we don't. No one is active, and when they are, it's maybe 2 events a week and then "big" event once every few weeks, and the "big" event is just the same as the last one. Our EMs suck, our Event Admin sucks.

We surprisingly have Raz online hosting now, but this is most likely just a fad and will not happen again for several days. I called it.

You can preach it exists but there is no event problem. Events are hosted every day, EC's are handed out every day. The big events are **** but thats about it.
