Just some thoughts and feedback regarding how in-game events are run and I honestly want this to be taken on as constructive criticism.
Part of the nostalgia for a lot of players in soma is that we remember how the game used to be and continue playing it for fun/memories etc. Quite a lot of us will recall the days where in-game events would start with the rain being switched on and a GM doing some shouts hinting at where was going to be attacked or have bosses spawn. This created a bit of hype about an in-game event. Another aspect was that sometimes the GMs would look at who is online and decide to run events in multiple maps so as to give different people a chance/opportunity to get boss drops. This means the same old players weren't simply able to get rich with all the boss kills. It also means spreading out boss mobs on maps when you do a mega event so that different people can choose to prioritise what bosses they go to first. In turn this gives us all an opportunity to diversify who gets what kills and improves the game for us overall. Now some of us love the chaos of a mass grouped up event. But others miss out on so much and it also makes it harder for less geared and less rich players when you're using up 15 resis just to hit a boss mob twice. So some thoughts needed on improving things perhaps. It would be really awesome if we all came together to give our GMs feedback and positivity to encourage an event like this at least once or twice a week. Any thoughts/feedback.

Ah the good old days of multiple events ;)
It’s why out of all the types of competitions I have done I prefer the hide and seek one the best. Dropping an item on a map, then just shout on which map it’s dropped on and give clues every so often. It allows everyone to take part, doesn’t matter what level or gear you are/have everyone has same chance ;)
