But so long as your ok with automatically mass producing inaccurate unique/gift/awards items to players just for logging in I dont see why you would be against players having to work for them during an event.

and ? how is that not a tool ? are you suggesting that only items for that list (which i didn't need even look at because i know what it is )is what we get from holidays because i am sure you can look at your rare collection and see how many items not on that list we have got on Holidays and all the inaccurate rare item spawns which we admit aren't accurate either for obvious reasons .

Thank you for proving my point for me. You ignored the actual point being made and argued against something no one said.

We can mass produce unique/inaccurate/custom items and give them to everyone for logging in but, we cant mass produce unique/inaccurate/custom items and have people earn them in an event.

Assuming you're using a standard keyboard, there are two locations where a small white dot appears. These are not stains from your previous browsing experiences. They are punctuation marks specifically known as the period. Don't fret! Despite the unfortunate name, these marks will exist (and be quite cooperative) all month long, unlike the less pleasant five day variety.

I'd suggest you take this opportunity to familiarize yourself with these strange but helpful little dots.
Save yourself the shame and embarrassment and just assume that if you can't understand me...you're the one who's retarded.

Lelouche has freed himself of your silly confines and now lives in pure stream of consciousness. Or maybe he's more like the electricity gremlin in Gremlins 2. Either way...

I don't see what's nonconstructive about asking you (albeit somewhat sarcastically) to please use some kind of sentence structure so that people can understand what you're prattling about.

If the rules state that posts are to be constructive, each of yours are in offense because no one can possibly glean any useful information from them.

Agreed.
Learn to compose a sentence and perhaps your 'points' won't be overlooked so easily.

If the GMs would just adopt a policy of doing the opposite of anything Lelouche genuinely wanted, complained about changing, or thought was a good course of action, the server would be a million times more enjoyable for the big majority of players!

The difference is at Christmas/holidays in general, each player gets at least 3 items. Hundreds of players, thousands of items. It would take an average player a year to collect enough coins for 3 items with tealmons proposed system. You are discussing the change as if unique prizes will be dropping off of the monsters, which has not been proposed.

Silver coins are in no way unique custom sought after prizes. Everyone has them. They are a means to an end, not a prize in themselves.

Giving out awards based on coins/active play time is much more equitable to active/new players than introducing custom items at holidays that are handed out instantly to anyone who logs on. As you have stated already, its ok for staff to create/handout/automatically spawn through mechanics, Custom, unique items as long as its a holiday. The logic would indicate they should be able to do so through an event as well, considering holidays are just events.

Introduce it in some kind of ongoing RP format and then you can drop silver all you want on anything whenever.

Would just be like a town invasion but on a larger scale.

Lord British's treasury has been looted by the underbelly of Britannia!
The criminals have distributed the coins among themselves!

Go reclaim the treasury!

The end.

You could also skip the 'silver' part and just have items drop randomly.

Lord British's castle was looted! All of his belongings have been stolen by monsters et.. Go reclaim them.

Try it for a month and see what happens.

It makes all the 'risk vs reward' event people happy, and makes all the non PVPer players who want events happy.

You are discussing the change as if unique prizes will be dropping off of the monsters, which has not been proposed.
say what ? lol
yeah i am sure a month of this is much better Then holidays that happen spread out across the year.

you speak of new players, as a new player who is expecting to play t2a that's accurate they aren't expecting trammel tourneys/events/silver coins so lol
