Very disappointed with the GM event drops - Page 2

Girth I have been with this project since January and I am very surprised and disappointed. Who were the GMs that did this? I mean these are probably the first GEBs on the server.

I thought this was a classic server not free loots/EZ epics. All this time was spent making a classic server and then we do crap like this? We are less than 30 days into release.

I just want to say that I had nothing to do with it. I am also incredibly frustrated and annoyed.

Was a mass movement Kilyena. I myself, along with some of my guildmembers where ported from Nektous/Freeport area to join in. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Can move pretty quick when you have a willing wizard/druid 8D

Eboots were dropping even? Djarn is a mini raid in the classic world. Passing out Eboots off high 20 mobs for that small number of 35+ is stupid.

Epic fail.

While I love GM events and the idea behind them, I think GEBs may have been a little bit out of line. The server hasn't been live for a month yet.

And not to rain on anyone's parade, but a few GMs and developers themselves have expressed some level of "discomfort" with the GM event.

Was it a great idea to have a GM event? Yes. Was it a great idea to have GEBs drop? Probably not.

As mentioned previously, what's done is done - it's time to move on. What dropped is now in-game and at some point, will be circulating in the economy.

Put faith in the server staff to make a better call next time. This is a learning process in some instances. Keep it up!

Facts and wrap up:
GM event items were alittle too good, and in poor taste (it was a mistake).
It didn't last very long.
It wasn't a castastrophe, nothing to worry about really.

Thread starter called it, GM's disappointed and we can move on now.

I think it's cool that they had a GM event.

I could care less about the drops. I am happy for the people that got them.

If the GEB were dropping constantly that'd suck for people without ports, but that's the way it is. If only 2 or 3 dropped grats to them.

I mean it wasn't loot from Innoruk or Cazic-thule. Even then grats to the winners.

Matahari.

I applaud the gm's for running an event!! And thank you for the server!!!
Lets recruit more people! I've recruited tons and tons.

For the morons out there who cannot read:

most of the GMs seem mad and disgusted by this, this is not just a player base issue

AND somebody WHO GOT LOOT said they deleted the loot they got because they didn't want it in the world yet....now THAT IS A STANDUP GUY

You people who think this was a good thing, well, I just don't understand why you're playing this game - it isn't supposed to be a freebie server
