Fire Surge is right. People were complaining staff weren't hosting events anymore. Want to know why? Typically the amount of players who respond to the Event Queue are 1000+. 1000 players who want to get into an event.

The old system of spawning an event warper meant that 1000 players were trying to get to that event door... 1000 players going to the same place is very bad. This is why the server grinds to a halt when an event warper is dropped with 2000+ players. This is why staff weren't allowed to host when the player count is over 2000. This is why there weren't events.

It might seem unfair that you don't get picked... and ya it probably sucks. But you know who doesn't think it sucks? The players who typically never, ever get a chance to participate in an event because it's always the same group of players.

It's not replacing Event Door's, but event doors can't be used... so which would you rather? No events or being randomly picked?


I don't get it. Why is it okay for old players to win events over and over, but it's not fair that new players get a chance? I just don't get it, older players think they're so entitled to having more fun than newer players?
