I do understand, it being a ball and masquarade and all... But most people just go down to the game forum anyways, cause they just don't have much time to wait on replies, but there are 20 threads they can reply to, and rpobably get swift replies. Many use exactly that method for mules.
But oh gosh, please, don't take away pearl earning for game forum... it will render many people hopeless. v.v;;

We have no intention of taking away the pearls from the games forums. We knew a lot of people would be using that as a way to get it because it was harder and we do expect people to use every asset they have to get them.

It just makes me feel as if the attempt to gain much social activity has not been achieved. We posted just must during taskal event first week. Even first three, nearly! After that, it sort of lost actuality.

Which is why these events are shorter. And in all actuality the currency starts off being easier to get. It doesnt match the level of difficulty of the Nox nocturnalis festival until you have achieved 2 full sets so before its harder than past events until you have 3 sets on each account. So its not actually that hard.

Yes, but considering that it's harder, it's also like.... week long, from what I am gathering. 2 weeks, 2 weeks and half, would make more sense with this level of currency earning.
If I am mistaken, then the situation is slightly different, but. -shrug-

The Nox nocturnalis was if i remember correctly, two weeks long and people still got a lot of those items and said it was to easy. So I tried to make it harder so the items could be rarer. Either way i never said the event would be exactly a week long, i said it would be shorter than the others and at least a week long. It may be longer but if it is longer it wont be a lot longer. Either way the time to get items will be shorter than in any other event.

I don't think it was that easy to get them during Nox Nocturnalis. There were few reallly crazy posters (me included), and the earning wasn't cut off, so sort of giving discouraging feeling.
But I understand about them being rarer and such... I just am not sure if this is a very good solution. But thank you for your thoughts and working to make things better and more pleasant and for this event altogether.

I wonder if the possible second part will be some sort of fair, the whole country celebration, after the queen is possibly overthrown. /offtopic

It was too easy to get them during Nox Noxturnalis. 8|
I got 15 of some items, 10 of most. The fewest I got was 8 for the Withering Nox. 8|
I even started lurking most of the time about halfway through that event.

I got at least 10 of each item/bundle from Nox myself.

Alright, but barely getting 1, 2? How about some... middle level, of 5? xDD

Ah, ok then. I was thinking about that a few months back when I was RPing with Chasm.

Half the fun of the site... any avatar site... is earning each item through hard work. Cheating the system makes it less fun. Granted, donating is a special form of cheating, but everyone benefits.

It might be better to say that you earn each item by spending something of value. In the case of DIs, you're spending money; in the case of aurum or event items, you're spending time. Both are limited, and therefore valuable, resources.

Yes. Therefore everyone benefits and the site gets updated.

I only have one account and I'm happy with it
