Even more story ideas

This may can me some ire, but hear me out.
1) People from other time zones or people who work evenings/weekends may not be able to make the events, this means that they're missing out on plot points.
2) If major plot points are divulged during these Events, new players (think someone who starts playing 3 months later) Will have no idea what's going on.
This is very frustrating to new comers who are also story-philes (like myself)

I agree with you somewhat on the story as I, being from a PvP server was not all the interested in the story but I can understand if people from Syntax or Recursion were as they were the main RP'ers and I think if the decision was made to drop the story, like Qui said it would be a shame as some people have been following it for 5 years. Sure, it's not been a great story but nevertheless it was one of MxO's features and to take that out of the game would be like taking PvP out for some people.

As for the No Lesig Idea, I do agree with you slightly on that but I totally disagree with the No Live Events idea. The live events made MxO somewhat unique in the sense that no other game had ever done events like this and to take that out would be a big dissapointment. The live events were not just for RP'ers but in some events it offerd PvP'ers to kick some ass too. While I disagree with you there is no certainty whether it will be implemented in-game and if they do they would either need to plan it out and execute them or get other people to do it.

As for the time zones I disagree completely. The event screenshots were posted upon the forums for all to see if they missed out. I come from the UK and a lot of the live events were extremely late for my time zone but for the ones I could stay up for I enjoyed them throughly and I wouldn't want to take them away just because I can't make it to them, it seems somewhat selfish tbh.

But then again you could say because I'm mainly interested in PvP I'm not too fussed about the story but even though I wasn't interested in the story, it was the taking part which was the fun bit.
