The grammer and paragraph structure is horrid and made it hard to read.
Personally I feel like no suggestions/complains/or other 'what the shard should do' ideas should be listened too coming from a person who only does pk'ing, events, and ILLEGAL AFK MACROING.
Why make suggestions on how things should be done if your going to break the rules any way?

/rage

:)

However I do feel that if events are being cut, cut them all uniformly not just particular ones.

Not only do your grammar skills need improvement, but your searching skills aren't too sharp either :wink: :

I think its about damn time that events are getting cut back. Having nights of non stop 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 1v1, 1v1, was just dumb. It took people out of the world and made those nights just boring. I didnt start playing here to sit in a arena all night and watch duels.

IMO the CTFs and DD are better events because it allows a wider range of people to be awarded with silver then just the L33T duelers who get large amounts of silver from a night full of never ending events.

if you enjoy 1v1/2v2 tournaments, then host a few as a guild. with events reduced/removed (tournaments at least) you shouldnt have any problems getting people together to play in a player hosted tournament, especially if you advertise a week or two in advance.

if there are SO many people who play and enjoy automated tournaments/events then, in theory, there should be SO many people to host player run tournaments/events... with a little bit of effort.

cut the events.

TBH I'd rather have those people log in for events then, then not play at all. Removing events won't make them magically say "OH HEY NOW I CAN PLAY THE ACTUAL GAME AND ENJOY IT!".

Not everyone enjoys all the aspects of UO, alot of people hate 'farming' alot hate 'pvping' alot hate 'pking' and alot hate the 'events'. Automated or not, they're fun and provide the shard with some pretty fun entertainment, as well as add to the economy.

Sure, player ran events can do the exact same, but you will rarely EVER get 28+ people to an event, and even if you do it'll get quite tiring waiting for 28 people to fight, especially if lets say half of them goto sudden death *lets just say you have it at 5 minutes*

thats still 14 people, dueling for atleast 5 minutes straight which equates to an hour and 10 minutes. Add in the prep. it takes to get people situted and the fights starting, and lets just say the other 14 equal up to about 30 minutes total you're looking at over 2 hours just to see what one (or two) players get said prize from the event, and waiting that long even to win is very unsatisfying.

My opinion on this also is very unbiased, personally I hate any kind of PvP event, I'd rather field my ass off and lose my loots to random players, then fight in a scheduled tournament, but I have the ability of seeing the other side unlike 90% of the people who only want what they.. well.. want?

I also don't care too much for MHK, but they equal up to about 90% of my fights in the field, where as everyone else just blindly posts comments of removing them, and never PvP. We actually PvP, we know how bad it is lacking. Leave us our events, please.

I don't do events .. I even stopped doing invasions etc .. but I don't hate them

The only thing I don't like is the value of silver ..

From my understanding doing events is one of the most profitable things to do in game. If this is true maybe reduce the silver or maybe even make it random like mob loot ..

Anyways I really don't care either way just think that we shouldn't give such a large portion of the eco. to a non era acc style of game play.

its only profitable if you win a tournament with a considerable turn out otherwise anything can be farmed in the time fairly easily you can do 7k on orcs in the time it takes to finish a ctf.

You've got to be kidding me. I've been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It's just common sense

Someone said this (events) is just an aspect of the game that some people enjoy, and that not everyone enjoys farming, pk'ing, crafting, etc.

Well, the major difference is that those people farming, crafting, and pking are out there in the world where each profession can have a social effect on the other. Events are turning the game into instance based pvp, if I wanted that I would personally go play some other game.

There would probably be more players if UOSA just added a trammel facet, does that mean that one should be added here?
