What the problem is is that they did it TWO WEEKS EARLIER! People that's enough time to check, double check, triple check.... If you can make it. For active players when you see one of those posts, you should post straight away if your able to go. You have TWO WEEKS so you cannot screw up

Not all of our members like to take on the KBD/KQ. The KBD is a novelty anyway.

There you have it. I do remember posting it two weeks earlier, if you weren't going to make it then you HAD the chance of saying it then instead of making up an excuse at the last minute.

listen as i said im a new member, but as a sugestion, i would make it haloween, or 2 days before, because on haloween more people know to come on to get sick rs partys and stuff, and 2 days before would b a weekend, which means more people could come, although i have hockey on saturdays, i say u make alot of posts before hand like u suposidly did when i wasnt here, and make it close to halloween

This topic went off track a bit... normally I'd probably just lock it but I decided to do mass prune on it instead.

Play nice now.

Well, it has come to my attention (Events Host) that many of you didn't show up for the last event.  I put at least 20 or so names up there, some had reasons (it was at 3:30AM is a good one, I personally had to go see my father) but that's besides the point.

I've seen a terrible trend here, one that doesn't please me at all.  First event:  The drop party, tons came out.  Then the Trawler, a handful (which was enough to pacify us) came out.  Then the Ironfist.  Only 4.  FOUR?  What happened?

I've talked it over with Seiferoth, and a few of the Staff members, and we all feel for the better of the community it is best to cancel the Halloween Drop Party.  You haven't shown enough motivation/spirit for me/Seiferoth/Firenimmo to back this up financially, and in truth, I don't mind dropping anywhere from 1M to 8M on you guys because I care.

So that's that.  If you think you can convince us otherwise then please, post here or talk about it in IRC.

A big factor of the problem is that the majority of our active members are those that were here since RN, and even some that have been here since near the beginning of RN. The old school active members have gotten older and have less free time. I personally would enjoy going to one of the events but I honestly can never find the time. I couldn't even make the drop party for the opening of RW. Most events are on weekends so more people can come, but I work on weekends so I get ****ed out of that one. Well, I hope we can solve this matter, it not only goes throughout events it goes along with forum activity as well. Its quite aggravating.

Huh. I just saw this topic posted.

We hold another party when Runeweb moves out of beta, I.E. all major features are released. That's something to 'party' about.

Until then I'm using whatever authority I have to place a moratorium on all future official RW events. Content staffers, focus on getting shit done. Everyone else feel free to organize things on your own.

It's less the fault of the people here being unmotivated. Its more the fault that we're holding random events for no real good reason, which cheapens the idea of a 'party' being something celebratory.

In the future, drop parties will be held at two specific times designed to cater to as many people as possible. Drops will be split evenly. Random events will be forced to undergo community approval prior to scheduling in order to ensure interest.

We feel people are being greedy.

Yes, people are greedy. Ding ding ding. Here, it's the key that opens the door of the fucking wetware world.

In any case, shut up about new events, and get to work.

I haven't been a member for that long and I haven't been to any events yet because i've been really busy. If i had noticed them and the time was right i'd be sure to go to them.

Some people may not have turned up specifically because they don't like the activity. Such as i don't like the trawler mini game. I don't think it would be a good idea to stop other events because only 4 people turned up to the trawler. Just pick an activity that you know people will turn up for which is fun. Just to get people to turn up you don't need to give away stuff like the drop parties.

I can see why you are annoyed but u really don't see what stopping future events would do, as i said just pick an activity lots of people like.

Many Thanks
