Is Xmass only for American ?
« on: December 25, 2008, 05:48:38 pm »
I play ps every days for 2 years and half... but the last GM event i was in was one year ago maybe more !
and I was morphed in clackers nothing extraodinary like the Xmass event you did last night !

You dont want to sell us house cheaper but you gave gifts like house or you maxed two magical  ways !
- as i remember i never had house for Xmass
and what is maxing skills if not spoiling... and its unfair for the one who maxed themself their skills...

My questions are :

Why GM event are everytime in USA timezone ?
Is Xmass only for americans ?

Indeed!

I am so sad.. sad for the new playes that can hardly run for 30 seconds but now they are maxed in magic... even 2 magic ways...

This is spoiling and i can write it again with caps "SPOILERS!".

I am agree of giving material things like special Glyphs, weapons but not skills! and specially not combat skills such any weapon use or magic or crafting, takes so long and so many hours mining for tria that is also very unfair for all the rest of us.

Also my questions are:

Why GM event are everytime in USA timezone ?
and is Xmass only for americans ?

The roleplayers' prayers have been answered...

...Now get back to mining. Nothing to see here.

To reward players logged on when Europe was opening presents with family. To reward guildhouses free when guilds have just finished paying 10-12 mill trias, To reward players with maxing of ways like Blue way or Brown way when players spent months doing such...Is a discrace !! I cannot understand this. Its clearly either plain madness or "Spoliers".
And at a time when knowone but Americans would benefit.
Madness!!

Two of my guild members are thinking of leaving the game now. 
And yes- I benefited from the event- to help my Guild!
Because we just bought a house TWO DAYS AGO and are deep in debt! And two were given away last night!? (That I know about!?)

(but for the record, I'm an American and I was up at 2:30 am by the time my name was called)

Life is not fair. Be happy about it. (seriously, think about that for a bit.)

The reason for this is often that the GMs or Devs who have a little bit of time to put on events are in the USA, and often in the evening after we are done with the day's work. In this case, it was just a single Dev (that I know of) staying up way past his bedtime to give out some virtual gifts.

Be happy for people, not full of envy or weep at the unfairness of the world.

The goddess Xiosia walked up at the plaza, appearing as a person?
She gathered people to fulfill wishes?
Like good old Santa gathers children to hand out presents?
Just like that? This is the entire story?

LOL!
The house auction, now this.. whats next? ufos? xD

But seriously now.. this didnt happen, right? This is a poor joke, right!  :o

Tell that to my imaginary millions that will continue to be imaginary because I don't have to max my magic level now. :sorcerer:

Well You're right UTM

but any exemple of gifts they gave last night :

two of my guildies maxed two ways and get a water glyph ( one of them two cant cross hydlaa without resting she is very new)
some  get maxed their crafting skills all ( knife, sword, axe making and blacksmithing )
a house maybe two ( i hope it was for a RPer guild but not sure)


Congrats again to the lucky winners ! and thanks to the Gm or dev who made that event


I think Rakshak is right !
PS is not dying. It's being killed.

Even on Christmas everyone complains. I think there is no way to make the people who play this game happy!! How sad.

No wonder I wish I had my old friends back.

The house went to an RP guild, yes.
How fair or meaningful it was? *shrugs* GM events' rewards never were meaningful, i don't see what's new, aside of the proportions of the gifts, which could have probably toned down pretty much.
Else, nothing changed.
the last GM event i was in was one year ago maybe more !
and I was morphed in clackers nothing extraodinary like the Xmass event you did last night !
My point, nothing changed. ;)

Sadly, as soon as I logged in today two very good RPers told me they are quitting the game.
This may be (yet another) signal that something's not being done the right way. Or perhaps it is that the team doesn't care about those kind of players.
Certainly it's not me who has to answer to that.

you want to see better and more gm events apply to the gm team stop making threads like this telling them you dont liike what they are doing till you have walked a month in their shoes. Threads like this will not help you get anything changed unless you help the team.

I spent months training! to be able to make swords you know how hard and slow is it, and then someone get it for free, this is not other than killing the game, i dont know why the team want the old players out of the game.

this is my first time complaining about something, and i come be cause i am losing my frieds, is there any conspiration against us?... dont know but day by day new silly things are happening.

Caarrie, it's the complain department, people comes here to complain. ;)

The mandatory reply "join the team" doesn't help this thread either.
We know it's hard to be in their steed (did anybody deny that at all?). Maybe some of the players don't feel ready for it.
But the current GMs/devs applied for it and ought to be.
