Once a year events should be tailored so that the entire community has an opportunity to enjoy them.

For the future perhaps consider custom content to patch in for events, for a day, rather than GM / Guides leading events for a set time frame.

I really wish I could participate, and i'm not the only one that will miss this due to RL.

I literally get out of work 2 hours before the end of the event :/
Don't get me wrong; Thank you guys for your hard work, dedication, and creativity.
It is appreciated for sure.

Ya it's a difficult thing of course. We want the most people to be able to participate. On the other hand, if we make the rewards nice we don't want people to be able to just sit there and farm it for 24 hours either.

It's a tough balance.

Account based lore items for special server events?

Quest turn in that drops your faction to indifferent from ally and there's no way to get it back up. Require ally for quest turn ins.

Except faction isn't stored per-account it's per-char.

Believe me, I've thought of lots. Even if we did an account-based lockout, not hard to make a new account.

I have three accounts, one character of every class, and a mule to sit in the EC tunnel. I don't use them to cheat, I just figured I'd grab some free character slots. I imagine a lot of people do it that way.

That is quite a valid point, thank you for taking the time to make that clear. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Seems like there'd be much better ways to prevent this.

Thanks anyway, I guess
