First, DME , thank you for the Shogg and Yog Event. It was alot of fun and I spent the whole 12 hours shooting mostly yogs and some shoggath (except when the game wouldn't let me for a half hour...and it was when I met the whole army of shoggath too...grrrr).
Now, the concern is that I want Monria to be as successful as possible including in its reputation and integrity. If I have negatives/concerns to share with a person or group, I usually share it with them directly and not on a forum or publically. I allows them keep their respect intact and that way, if problems needs to be addressed, their authority is still intact. However, at your request, I am reposting the message I sent to first here now.
So, here is the concern. When we have events on Monria, can they be set up to where the ability level of the players is the first consideration?. Despite publically saying it was fair, if all the facts were left open to consideration, their was a definite bias in the winning solos/teams. They were all very high level players and secondly, most serve in some way administratively.
Rosa got the highest solo with the 302 ped yogsoth. I meet the yogsoth on Thursday night...a lvl 19 and in the cave 2. At level 10 at that time, I was taken out after 2 lunges from it. Anyone under level 18 and not knowing that they highest level mob wasnt in the main crater never had a chance. It was publically mentioned that the mobs in the main crater were the focus of the event but the biggest mob was in cave 2. It could "appear" that someone who serves administratively had an inside scoop where the biggest yog was and with her higher level, took out the highest level mob with the best possiibility of the highest global before the event ever started. Understand, I am not saying this as a slam to Rosa...but I only ever saw the lvl 19 once and there was only one. There are no rules against anyone serving administratively that they cannot benefit from events in gameplay on Monria. In trying to see this whole picture from a younger player's position, the main people who benefited were solos or teams who were higher level players.
Now, normally I wouldn't put this on the forum or any of the threads but at your request, I am writing here so that you/administration please consider what should be considered "fair" for Monria events. Even if someone wanted to do the lvl 19, they would have to be a very high level player to beat it. I don't know the percentages of ranks of players but the people visible on Monria chat are all higher level players and they would have been the only ones to have been able to defeat that lvl mob.
Thank you for taking the time to read this message. It is your choice if you respond or ignore this note but I need to have a clear conscience of what I felt was important to be voiced. This post is not meant to be destructive to anyone in particular including Rosa. I originally only sent this to DME because I didn't want anyone's accomplishments at this event to be diminished but she had asked that I post it here in the forums. lol..Im not even sure if I got the right thread to have posted this on.
