I was wondering, why not enable those events more times in a day? (plunder, convoy, team instance) There's a lot of vacant time and not everyone will always participate or something. My point is, more and more and more people are quitting because of "unable to do events, so i get left behind". It is a lot degrading when you're left behind.

Time limited should be (in my opinion): sage world battlefield, 9-tails, fighting matsuri challenge. (OR 9-tails can be changed to something more time-friendly like 9-tails has a huge hp enough for the whole server's population, then they are given a time limit to deal damage to 9 tails)

I see no reason to limit these events because on the plus side, it will make people stay. Not everyone is okay with the provided time zones, so an adjustment will improve the player base.

I would like to hear what you think about my opinion. If I were to enable it, I'd enable it the whole day so it won't pressure and require the players to play on a specific time. Everyone has their own lives and jobs to do.

Personally, I think TI wider time slot would be good, such as the 8am-12midnight that is available on weekends. I see no purpose in restricting that event.

The other event timings are decent. 7pm-10pm Matsuri, 7.30pm-8.05pm Sage World, and 8.10pm-till 9 tail dies. These timing are in line with after work hours of general population. If you're in a profession that works out of these hours, then it can't be helped, you're the minority.

As for the Convoy and Plunder, I would disagree with you on that aspect of making more time slots. If that happens, the plunders are going to suffer because as it is, it can take almost a full 3 hours of that event time to get plunders in, and its constant clicking. If you spread more time slots, that means more chances of convoys to sneak past, and mouse *ons will be destroyed. HOWEVER, if they do ever decide to increase the number of SS convoys, then yes, I would agree with more time slots then.

wider time slot for ti would be good but for the rest no because ud litterally never be able to plunder anyone. people don't sit hours at a time to plunder someone a small time frame is more reasonnable, somewhat forces. the activity spike during that given period gives u the possibility to actually find someone to plunder. otherwise people would wait for the least active hours in game to convoy and that just defeats the purpose of the event.

I agreed with comments above. In my opinion, the time slots are ok. It's like after dinner and before bed time. It's the time where players are active the most. If the time slots are too wide, there won't be enough players to get event going.

People are complaining enough about events being cancelled, especially SWB. We don't want that to keep happening, do we? :)

Yeah, I was really going for more time slots for those events. It's really sad that I can't play and support this game when I love it so much.

Perhaps, another timezone can be *ternative idea.

Admins/Mods, please notice. A lot of players want to donate and support and play the game but such limitation will not do any good.

there are lots of servers that cant even start a swb right now and u want to add more times it can be done? u will just make more servers not start them and more people will complain.

plunders take so long to do right now, even on server 2 it took me 45min saturday to get my 3 plunders, adding more time for convoy will make it impossible to finish 3 plunders a day

9tails takes 5min for most servers because of the change to it, if u cant join i think u need to change the timezone u play on

fighting matsuri lasts 3 hours, if u cant do 5 fights in that timeframe ur on the wrong timezone

ti lasts for hours as well, how is it hard to get to one of them in the day? it only takes a few minutes to do them all and u can find some1 to lead ur team thru them so u dont have to play it

i work 8 hours a day and i dont have any problems with making it to any event i want to join, and removing the limitations would make the game less playable

I'm not talking about swb/9-tails/matsuri here. They are fine, or at least they could be better for the convenience of everyone. This may sound selfish to some but this is really crucial. I know a lot of people who quit just because of they can't catch up to events. There's more people quitting for that reason rather than not wanting to play the game anymore. I'm taking one for the people who can't play anymore because of the limitation.

@Shadoblaze yes there is a problem cuz of the low rate of people on the server. It's because there are way too many servers and people see it as an opportunity to start fresh because they are left behind. Some cases might be "ohh i wanna be #1, i dont wanna stay in a server that overpowers me", and some cases are "dang it, i keep missing events! I need to start fresh and make sure i make to every event". So yeah, more event time slots = more chance of people to catch up. The low people problem is because of the many server openings. The damage is done and you can't do anything about bringing people on old servers. The hoppers will decrease if this will be implemented. I'm sure of it.

A company should always do an effort to gain clients and so oasis needs to adjust for their player base. It is this idea or add another timezone.

I agree with Illucia that extending the times of the regular stuff is good to stop people from quitting the game. I've recently seen this happen a lot of times when people came home after midnight too often and can't do anything and then quit.

As for server jumping, I know a lot of people will jump as soon as the idea of merging or cross-server events are announced. These are different people than the people who quit, but they will still leave the server leaving all the whales, that would also leave and chargeback when the server is merged. (Who would want to be at the bottom again fighting overpowered people on another server???)

That said, I'm not here to tell if anyone should change the server strategy. It doesn't matter me much if they change or not. Then again, I don't get chargebacks from my banks because I don't give poor services to my customers. :)

I can see team instance being like in the weekends. They could introduce a different timezone if they wanted to, but I think they're happy with the ones they got for now.

I'm one of the minority who can't make it. And I'm not suggesting to change the times, I'm suggesting to add the times. That way the minority who can't make it can still catch up.

For example, a person like me who tops up then realized all 4 time zones won't be good for me. What's next is, I'll quit because I have no choice.

It's not just their losing a minor player base (could be major if you read my explanation in some replies), they're also losing possible income, donators for not being that flexible.
