The thing about forum events is that they should be kept separate from ingame events, simply because not every player comes to the forums. Therefore forum events should just reward forum users in that sense.
To put things in perspective, it is uncommon practice to get gamers to go to the forums to get rewards.
Although both are considered anniversary events, but the real anniversary events should be ingame and the forum events are just a bonus for forum users.
