On the topic of events, there needs to be stricter rules for hosting @Jarace/Dread, this is similar to the incident where Leah said Thallen couldn't win the other colour variation of the hat then gave it out to someone who already had it right after, staff are just making it up as they go along which is bound to cause problems.

Exactly, we need behavioural consistency.

colin a *** for deleting my post lol

Since this is technically your second first post I guess I can repeat what I said before yours and mine got deleted.

You had the opportunity to be productive to society with your first post but that's how you spent it

(I censored the bad word so hopefully mine won't be deleted)  

I'm surprised admins are making silly mistakes like these tbh
Really seems like there's a huge lack of guidance on what admins should and should not do as a whole.

I understand you can't prevent an admin from making mistakes but as a player I'd assume there is a clear list of rules when hosting that should be able to be opened by the admin at any time.  

Smh at these GP admins. U can screen players when hiring them, but thats about it. They are probably good people but sh*t at their jobs

Let me assure you that the application and screening process is top of the line  

What I find suspicious is that he only hosts warper events and disregards the random queue. But that's not the issue. If Nanner won both times with 2 different hats as the prize then he deserves both hats. In addition, if he already had the hat, he can get a replacement (since Dual decided to use a warper instead of a random queue which prevents you from entering the event if you have the hat already). Please quit making non-exisistant rules on the fly.

There was one event that I won all 3 rounds and got 3 different colored hoods so I'm assuming it depends on the GP. But all in all, if you won fair and square, then a event hat needs to be added to your folder.


Edit: @Coco, maybe if you can fix the warpers so if you have the hat it doesn't let you go in but that would cause an uprising.

If that's what Kai experienced then why bash him? If that's what happened with him, then perhaps it isn't Kai that's the problem, rather the staff's the problem for not being disciplined enough to follow the rules. Shouldn't we expect consistent behavior in the reward/punishment system of Classic?

i'm confused on how he's being a jerk wth

He's being a jerk because he's entering an event where the prize is a hat he already has. I absolutely hate when people do that because it's rude and quite jerk-ish. What else would someone think when entering an event with a hat they already won other than "o I'll get get a different hat instead". Why not let other players who don't have the hat try to win it instead of jumping in and winning again then expecting a replacement hat. How would you feel if someone who was good at the event just kept winning it and getting replacement hats? You really want the prize but can never get it because some butthole keeps taking everyone else's potential win and getting a "replacement hat" for it. It's s**tty.

It's not necessarily a rule to not give a different hat to someone that already has it (at least I don't think) but imo it should be (if it's not already). I don't see why staff needs to go and hunt for a different event hat for someone that's going to be like that and I don't think they should do it at all. It's just one of my graal pet peves and I guess I'm the only one bothered by it.  

Coco, that could have been avoided if the GP didn't host a warper event lol. Plus it depends on the event, it's not like they'll always win.

Yeah possibly. I wouldn't suggest doing warpers for a hat event since it's very likely someone who already has it will enter, unlike doing an event for a mount or item that isn't common. But if it were me and someone who already has the hat won I wouldn't have given him squat and probably would have either started the event over or just stop there and no one wins.

Yeah but they still go and enter the event, knowing they have the hat already, and try to win. Doesn't make it any less jerk-ish. Give other people a chance for crying out loud.  

An events team would be nice, so that gps can do their job  

Posted by Coco

I'm surprised that happened...usually if you participate in an event where you already have the hat and win, you should get nothing

What a stupid rule..
effectively saying "we shouldn't be awarding people for being good at the game"

So the admin Dual was hosting events just now and I won the first event of bush race for a top hat. And then the 2nd event he hosted was dodge and I also won it but he decided to kick me without giving me an explanation. I believe it was due to me winning the first event. But is that even fair? Just saying I should be awarded the blue hood it was hosted for >:l

Pictures/Videos or it didnt happen

lol what? No. We should award people for winning an event. We shouldn't reward people for outshining everyone else just to get a bunch of free hats that the event wasn't even being hosted for. That's like the equivalent dickishness of a full grown adult racing a bunch of 1st graders. You know you're better than everyone else at this game, congrats, you won your prize, now let everyone else have a chance.

Also your winning and expecting a different prize than the one announced is not only extremely rude, but it's a pain in the ass to have to go and dig up and different event hat just for your special little self.

I don't think you're understanding. It's more like "why are you playing for a hat you already won. Why aren't you letting other people have a chance at winning? You're ruining the fun for everyone else."  

A guild like (EC) is probably the definition of what Coco is trying to portray

By your logic we should prevent players who are good at a certain aspect of a game from participating. Next we should prevent anyone whos won a gst hat from participating in it until everyone has had a chance to win.
