I have an Idea!...How about you go xp..and Level up...and earn money...and by shit...and sell shit ..Like the rest of us...instead of complain..about low population....its low from weak crybabies....this is for hardcore...Lenny .....I Will Kill uuuuu

Oh....and some nice events like "search items Hiene" would be nice....pvp arena event sucks..no shots...LAME.
MAYBE SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR EVENT TYPES? here is one:
Spawn weird mob some where hidden...and players must find it..drop reward item trade for....C grade top weapon..or sumthing?
Another:
GM hides sumwhere, gives hints in Global CHAT... "I spy" ....1st player to find him get 5kk adena (it is on the ground already).
how about you? any idea? >

That's hide and seek event which I suggested year ago and also yestrday. I was making events on ncwest for few weeks and believe me, that's smthing ppl really enjoyed.
Btw I was playing on retail since prelude. I am telling from the beggining that makes anything easier makes no sense. How dare you are to tell me such a bullshits?

If there is no population, there is no fun. It has nothing to do with farming.
Btw rewards which you suggested are ridiculous. You can't reward ppl with top C weapon with single hide & seek. You have to thing about it more deeper. If you win event and you will get top C weapon for few minutes of your time, server will be full of C eqip or lot of money really fast. Make smaller rewards, like buff scroll, 500k, crafting material or smthing like that and make it like 2 weeks tour. Person with most points from events during that week will receive much better reward for example top C weapon as you suggested.
But hell, events must be daily. There must be fun. Find person who will work with you on it or who will do it for you...
