Now before i get into this thread im going to state this now. This is my own personal opinion everyone else has their own opinion. With that said i will begin.
I am tired of AFKING events. It seems 90% of the events now are afking events. I personally like to earn my rewards with daily tasks or grinding. Doing nothing for something is highly boring for me and my community of friends. Since ive played since the early days of mabinogi I know that it used to not be like this nor were events as frequent as they are now. While i like having events. the afk events are over used. and since this Halloween event is in fact an afker i am kind of depressed. because its 1 of 2 event seasons i look forward to every year. Halloween and Christmas. those 2 event seasons usually have the best events in my opinion. but when i heard that it was a daily shadow mission and afking event i almost cried.
So i want to see How m,any people are tired of afk events and how many aren't as said everyone has their opinion. so feel free to reply!

I wish it was an afk event because I consider the daily SMs to be a boring chore, but unfortunately for me I want that fat cat chair badly enough to play for it.
This past summer was also full of mostly non-AFK events too, and September was the only month where there was a lull in active events, and that was probably because people were going back to school. I respect that this is your opinion, but it has a very weak basis for an argument, considering the lack of actual AFK events we've been having recently.
Fishing With Larry is AFK and yes, so is the lantern event. Sure you hunt monsters for the kits but then once you get a bunch, you afk by the lighthouse to release lanterns. Though this is optional, but not like it matters because the drop rate for anything good is total crap anyway.
you're right that these events are boring though
Im sorry but that last part is utter garbage. Idk if you haven't played this summer but almost every event was afk. and i did do most of the events this summer. Now if you are counting out the what 4 events that werent afk fine i get it. we had the suspicious wolf, Watermelon thing, that points event. but the rest were mostly afk.
I did play this summer, and I played every event. Especially towards the end of summer, there were very little AFK events. Mission point kept everyone busy, as did 2x skill training weeks, hot times, and the watermelon event.
See, if there were more non-AFK events, people would complain that it requires too much work, or that they don't have enough time in the day to do the quests. If there are too many AFK events, people complain that it gets boring. There has to be a balance of sorts, and currently, I think there is a balance. You may think that all of these are AFK events, but in order to reap the rewards from these events, you have to work for them (killing monsters to get sky lantern kits, SM's for the pumpkin coins). In my opinion, that doesn't make the events AFK. And according to the stream from Wednesday, we have another non-AFK event coming up this month too.
Ah yes, the summer of non-AFK events were fun also. I loved playing the mission point event, capture the watermelon event, all those new dan testing daily quests, the few AP events we got, the all summer long master plan event. The monster dodge event was fun also. I loved all the non-afk packed events we had. And how wonderful it was to take a break and AFK after a FULL summer of events.
I was looking forward to past Halloween events returning, and/or Cookie Island with some expansion to it. It had a great story and really wish it was a bit longer/had some updates.
This ^^^^^^^^^^. My thoughts as well.
aye
I also hope the Night Witch/Night Mage outfit bags are on the shop again. Maybe or not this year, just one day lol
Potions are more accepted, and would be much better to get than some cheap fabric I can make in 2 minutes.
