    I mean, the event is bad, but. What exactly would canceling it accomplish?

    No.
    Don't like. Don't do it.
    Simple.

    In the release of G13 they introduced a celebration event for it. All you had to do was talk to the event NPCs to receive a reward box and the boxes gave out end game equipment (at the time). They did not put a 1-per account restriction, and instead the restriction was 1-per character. Nexon quickly pulls the plug on the event because they did not expect people to flood the event with alts in the attempt to get as much end-game equips as possible.

    So they did not learn from past mistakes and now we have this? Same old Nexon huh...

    Should of made Endgame Mats more common instead of this crap. At least this will make players do SOMETHING instead of circling the NPC like some kind of Cult ready to chant some horrific words to boost luck with alts.

    Why could they not just do that?

    The alts on the same account were fine, even intended. People were creating NEW accounts and spamming the event with them that caused the issue.

    Twas a shame. Can't have nice things without people ruining it. http://mabinogi.nexon.net/news/archives/1/00Ao2

    It's basically a gacha. Alot of people will buy it but only 1 or 2 people will get the rare item. Some people will not go for it and just save them selves from the lag. Some people will be salty because they're not wanting other people to get more chances at it too.

    There's no point cancelling it; just stop participating in it. This is a unique opportunity to play Mabinogi without the distraction of an event. Go outside and play (figuratively speaking of course and in a Mabinogi sense).

    Personally, I don't care that much. While it is kinda annoying to hear about the alts and spammers getting the equipment, I honestly think people are being way too salty about it and need to chill.
    Is the event poorly designed? Heck yes but we should be used to that by now. Should we say something? Sure, politely. But I think talking about cancelling it is a bit much at this point in time.
    Would be nice if they could implement some fixes between now and the next one though :P

    Just saying nexon should be listening to It's player base. Ignoring the event with no feedback wouldn't let nexon know this was a bad idea. Players should be allowed to express how they feel, so stop telling them to not do that. Players want progress, not regression.

    Polite takes too long.

    You're talking about stopping people from multi clienting basically. Every time they mess with that it causes problems with households. Guys we honestly should be used to this by now. Don't like it, don't play the event. Simple.

    tbh this pleasantly surprised me in that regard. Considering the people I've seen cursing ingame, the forum's been pretty good this time XDD

    No one here is talking about playing the event though. Telling them to ignore it isn't going to help the future either. Everyone has come here to express what they think about it, (that's what the forums are for) and nexon should be able to see that feedback here. There's nothing wrong with that. Salt or not, feed back is feed back. Why are you even in the forums if you're not here to give feed back on the game? Seems all you want to do is get your cute "mabi rep" up, but while you're doing that, do us a favor and don't try to put other people down for doing what literally the forums are here for.
