During the day i sit around bored as hell waiting for something to happen. Last night the server was dead and i asked a gm(who was sitting around doing nothing) to host a tournament, and he said tournaments are boring its just the same old thing different day.. That is not the kind of attuide we need with the staff. I dont know if he was being serious or not but no tournament was hosted.
I wish you'd just listen to us players whining for tournaments, because were whining for a reason.
In all honesty when I first became GM I wanted to host whenever I could to give players something to do. Though as I hosted more and more I noticed players just started sitting around even more, doing nothing and waiting for the next event. I do not want this and me hosting more will only make it worse.
Events aren't the fix for boredom, you are. By you I mean the community of course, not putting the load on a single player :p One little bit of effort can cause a chain reaction that inspires other players to do the same. The more you sit at the pits all day, so will other players. Go out and help create the environment you want for the shard. We as staff can only do so much, it is the players who really build this shard and keep it running.
