Not long ago we've celebrated a holiday of love and romance. Many humans, elves and dwarves found each other and discovered true love. Some time has passed, but we want to celebrate with you this upcoming weekend. Join us on the way to the altar!

_{The team will be online this weekend for some free wedding food! We'll announce ourselves when we're preparing the event.}

This contest was scheduled to end tonight, but we don't have enough participants to require a voting round. So we'll extend it by three days to end Feb 20 at SERVER TIME 23:59.

Thickly falls the quieting snow

blanket deep, the resting soil below

play the song again

earth awaits the springtime, dreaming slow.

The holidays are over and winter is moving along as fast as syrup in January. Let's brighten up the gloomy overcast with a contest. What sweet treat do you use to stave off the chill? Does a molten-fudge brownie warm your soul, or do you prefer a snowy-white expanse of frosted cake? Show us a dessert that embodies the heart of winter.

Oh neat, I got quoted.

If you're interested in how events and planning work, then know that local events (board stuff and most live server events that involve active GM work) are planned by the individual teams, while globals are not. Trade NPC events are always global. Always. It's not available to your GMs to program them to give or trade items like cards and recipes.

The dessert/recipe event you've quoted started in .us and moved to .com when I joined that team. It and the Finding Aqua events have become a team's attempt to correct RW's inability to fix items missing from drop tables. They are more or less on re-run. Despite players' insistence that they really want a fix for un-lootable cards and recipes, we generally don't get overwhelming participation in either event.

I can see why you'd think that the event teams don't communicate since it's not a publicly available discussion, but this is actually not the case. Still, events are at the discretion of the teams and it's not for me to force an event on another comm or vice versa. For example, the .us team has had to sit out most live events this year due to decreased availability of teamlers. So for us, board events are the way to go. On the other hand, the situation in .us shouldn't be holding back any other community. In this way, I don't think your idea of rigorously enforced 'equality' will go far.

If all you want is the opportunity to gain cards and recipes, contact your event teamler(s) individually and ask for one of the events listed above. In the case where some similar event is already approved or complete, obviously getting CoMa approval is often simpler. Keep in mind that reward strength is always tied to event difficulty/effort level.

Or if you want to pick my brain about more details on event-craft, my inbox is -> that-a-way.

Mirror, mirror, tall and thin

Search and bring the Aqua, players

then we'll have cake with seven layers.

Help us to find Aqua! Can you find the place where the picture was taken? Does he prefer his eggnog with nutmeg or without? But where's that background?

If you found the place where this picture was taken, make a screenshot of it and submit it in an email to events [at] runesofmagic [dot] us. Make sure that your character name is visible on the screenshot, and the map's coordinates as well.

I don't recall that I've ever personally believed price increases were intentional in a malicious manner. I think it happens because businesses need to make a profit in order to survive

No.. not even that... overall restructure is not aimed at raising the prices at all..

Then how come from all the changes in the past 2 months, not 1 was done to benefit the player, instead just IS changes and raising the price ?

Kinda sad to see these changes took plance since your "arrival", even tho you have hundreds of feedback from players. In the end, from all the AMA etc, nothing has change for better, just like the empty promises we had for years.

It looks like some prices changed. One of our polish players Zeno made a post about it. Yes it's in polish, but you'll recognize the items by their icon. Anything with two prices listed has had a price drop.

• Ulepszenia

• Niezbędnik

• Styl

• Dom

FYI everyone, the discussion has been moved here to keep the question and answer threads clean. Discussion still open, just mind the usual forum rules.

The post is purely about diamond cost, not about item cost. They're making the off-sale diamonds less expensive, and also making the diamond sales a bit less of a boost. The goal is exactly as stated in the pasted text: "smooth out the pricing".

Since we haven't had a diamond sale since it went into effect, the only result so far is that if you spent 20$ on diamonds 3 days ago you'd get a smaller quantity of diamonds than you'd have gotten if you spend 20$ today.

Such greedy. So faceslap. Wow.

What I take away from this is that the playerbase is so used to feeling 'milked' that they can't imagine any change might have a benefit.

Maybe my opinion will change when the first diamond promo rolls around, but until then I'm content.

Youtube videos or twitch streams are always great, if one of you guys is a streamer I can try to arrange to get your stream on our Steam Shoppage. Steam is probably our biggest source of new players.

Quote from Bluesons00

Also if you would like to learn a little more about the game itself, i would recommend you to check out my Runes of Magic channel on youtube, where i have for many years & still are promoting the game (For free), worth mentioning. Link in signature.

Ask and ye shall receive, Phelan . Bluesons may well be the longest running streamer of RoM. I certainly can't think of anyone to challenge that distinction.

Since there aren't enough submissions to choose from, we will extend this event until Thursday Sept 27, at 23:59 PACIFIC TIME.

Please stick to the brief, folks. One question each, without repeating the previous ones. Many posts here are just right. Others seemed to have missed the instruction post entirely.

Csendeshalal, lets see if we can't find a teamler who speaks Hungarian to help you.

Quote from Groot

can you create a mage handed hammer for druid/rogue ?

When you say mage handed hammer - 1H ? 2H? offhand only? Just to check

Let us know when you meet Fierce Gale in the Inferno Gardens ;D

Edit, for EN we will shift all by two days. Submissions to end Sept 26, and voting ends Oct 2. Thanks for your patience.

For some reason on aeterna even maint doesn't bring them back. Rather than use a GM command to fix the quest and risk damaging the character.... just spawn many and let the user kill as needed. No risk there, it completes same as usual way- by kill count.
