How are we this deep into the server and have yet to see any event - whether it's pk/stake or even community related fun like Hide and Seek.  33 fun pk tourneys for small prizes like a sub set.  No admin presence at all or no one online, and everyone being ignored - though 99% of community has nothing to do and wants p2p released immediately.  Can we please do anything to help get some kind of community involvement besides gankfest in the wild?

Agreed.

Server population is falling off like crazy, people are losing interest, no involvement from mods/admins to make it interesting.

Server needs something to drive engagement like events, p2p release, etc.

+1, no reason not to have some events going with moderate prizes, no risk all reward

Hey all, thanks for raising this.

A small correction first: there is staff presence around, both in-game and behind the scenes. It's fair to say it's not always visible at peak hours, and we can do better there. But "no admin presence at all" isn't quite accurate.

That said, the core point is fair - we haven't run proper community events yet, and we should be. The honest reason is priorities. As admins, our top focus right now is getting the game itself working well - fixing bugs, stabilising systems, addressing exploits, and laying the groundwork for what's coming next (including P2P). Running events well takes preparation and staff time during the event itself, and we've been pouring that time into the server foundation.

But you're right that we can't keep pushing it indefinitely while waiting for "the perfect moment." More events are coming. I'd rather make that commitment here than keep silent on it.

What sounds fun? What would actually pull you in? Reply with your suggestions and we'll work to make them happen.

Really appreciate the post.

Pking Events


I'm personally not a pker, but I vaguelly recall tournament style events on RSCR2 that sent you into matches with pre-loaded stats and gear. I always found that fun and accessible for someone with 0 pking experience - and who knows, that might encourage me to actually make a pker character at some point.

Skilling events


I'm predominantly a skiller, though. It might be fun to host certain race-like events, like:
  • First to cut 1000 logs
  • First to mine 500 coal
  • First to kill 200 Hill Giants
  • First to craft tan 500 cowhides.

These are events that could bring a competitive aspect to skilling which would be greatly appreciated. It helps stimulate the economy or just be a fun, neat way for people to progress their character/bank. You could grant prizes to the people who win, like subs, gold, noted resources, free lotto ticket vouchers, etc.

Community Related Events


  • Hide and Seek
  • Literal races - with auto-walk & teleports disabled perhaps - from one part of the map to another, perhaps even in the wilderness to spark pking.
