Weekly events?

[Getafix]

I was just wondering if there could be weekly events say a double damage/double speed/monsters drop gold (on the basis of monster's level)/defense bonus or "2X Everything" event?
I mean it would just make the game a little more enjoyable!

Like thats not a problem already no matter what this will occur, Shouldnt let them stop you from bringing new ideas in.

I like the idea of a double xp event once in a while, not every week but maybe every month for a weekend.

Maybe discounts from npc's once in a while too? :3

Something like this double xp event was implemented last December on BR server. The players loved it...
It was a quest, in which you had to get a fragment of a rare stone and give it to an alchemist, so he would make you a special ring.
For each monster you killed, while wearing the ring, it would accumulate an extra "energy", that could be converted in experience when you touched that rare stone.

@Jumpy, Come on man if you keep thinking of rules against multiboxers and botters then this game is going nowhere, those people are everywhere and they eventually leave the game cause they get bored of it...

Glad you guys like the idea... Only if there's someone to implement it

a post has to be fully reed..

idea is interesting i said so don't start trolling

a quest is like a mountain to climb

before climbing it you decide the ways you'll go to reach the top of it
safely, within your strenght and physicall, mental skills, the environment conditions and so on, material equipement you need, food and so on

so grow up little quester designers and look at quests as a mountain then you'll create great quests !!

so

idea to make a weekly event is great and reallly a good idea
if i miss one i can do the next and so on, no frustration etc

note that it will increase traffic because of alts and so on
creation of new chars
etc
etc

this is part of effects on environement
client side
server side
content development side
dev side
map side
story guideline side

etc
etc
etc
etc

so it is not like lets have fun and lets make quest and all kind of quest

i am sure that this goes in the good line to develop the adventure of mana serv and will be great for tmw and all forks

i am calling the attention on the fact that this is not like just throwing ideas
like oh why not a quest to gain a +1 str ring or whatever

why not a free stats npc for a weekend and so on need to be developped according a kind of guideline in quest creation so then can easely be read and this ay things will go faster and better mootivation for every one

Wombat or whoever is in charge of dev please bring us a guideline with this

of course this is a game but the dev of this game is professional oreinted
so lets all be professional in this

thanks for your attention
hoping you read it the right way and compeltely 2 times before starting trolling

thanks

@Jumpy, I read your post in the first place, secondly, you call presenting your opinion trolling, if you think I'm being a troll please don't reply to my posts. My post was not meant to be rude (sorry if you did think it was rude).
Plus bots and multiboxers are a common problem for every MMORPG and they can not be stopped. So finding ways to encounter it rather than spending more time in improving the game is a shitty idea. You ban them, they'll create a new character and start botting again.

You used to be polite...

[yubabax116]

Seems that some people are more mature than others...

I would like to know other developers opinion on this idea.
