Christmas has come and gone, and New Years is right around the corner. Why aren't there any events? Even wonderland hasnt been activated.

    PWI's idea of "events" has been the same old log in event and charge/spend rewards for the past few years.

    It's so sad when you think about it. A lot of people say PWI is dead; but there's still a loyal and strong playerbase evidently. But it's the people behind PWI that's killing this game. There were no anniversary events; and now: the Holiday season? No events, well, just crickets and same ol boring Log in "event" and a x2 that's supposed to keep the players somewhat happy. Idk why they find it so hard to release actual events. And a CM withholding vital information isn't doing anybody any good either. Other servers are thriving with monthly events, codes, and more interactions w players and mods. PWI's just a joke now, its present state: a way to siphon off money. No rewarding events, laziness of the devs all over the board, nothing. But here we are, still playing it.

    We dont actually. Kalyst was the last we had. If you talking about Heero, they are a volunteer forum moderator. Not community manager. He does all that he can do, but its not like he has inside information most of the time. He shares as able, but if he isnt getting the info, then there isnt anythign to share.

    He's withholding information: half the answers to the questions he'd requested us. He's been sitting on those for months(4 to 5 months now). He'd promised he would share them finally, without the other half (of the questions answered), but here we are, the New Year at the door, he still hasn't.

    Oh, okay. I misunderstood CM being "Community Manager" with "Community Moderator" (still not the best thing to argue about when CM means either/both, lmao).

    Its doubtful the answers are meaningful to much of a degree. Maybe a bit of clarity, but not much else. I'm thankful for everything Heero does. He will post whenever he can. RL can be quite busy sometimes.

    In either case, he's a volunteer, and is not obligated to do anything for us. He gives his time/effort for our benefit as much as he can.

    The community manager is something I've pushed for over and over. I'm not a community manager only a Community Moderator. My time can sometimes be very limited As much As I try. To point as well the info I have is very limited. The communication has always been a hard point for this.
    I agree we need a CM, tho the bashing the CMs had in the past is really off-putting.

    As for questions I have answered that subject in another thread.
    If it would help I'll post the questions I have asked. Tho there are a lot of answers missing.

    Thanks.
