Once told to, you main EM's can summon elves, pumpkin lords, grim reapers, and other things.

In order to do this you would need someone to script a totally different thing for the summon thing. We can't summon anything over the occasional lord. only sam and bjorn can do things like grim reapers and other things. we have stuff from mushrooms to panthers to demons to elves. I can give u a detailed list of what we EM's can summon.

And sometimes, when people just want to have a monster bash that's challenging even at medium levels, its just not possible to set up a monster event. Summoned monsters can't be released cleanly in large numbers, and its very expensive mana crystal wise. Also, with the disabling of removing map monsters from dungeons many kinds of monsters are now impossible to use for monster events unless you bug the map somehow.

I know it would work in favor for the kingdoms. But I know when I have done event dungeon i have gotten nothing but complaints. "Oh how exciting..you just summon monsters to kill". When i do a rp event though its actually cooler..ppl tend to like it when i summon monsters. But you have to take the good with the bad. If someone found out that you had the ability to summon they will bug you non stop to summon them. i have at least 1 person every two days asking me to mass summon trexes or some other monster for them for fun.

We don't just enjoy ourselves, we try to help others enjoy the game. We have debug access to help the staff search for bugs in new updates, as well as to develop the lands entrusted to our control. We are not normal players, we have dedication and responsibility above and beyond those of normal players. Whether or not we're good, depends on how well we carry out these duties. To me this is a small request for something that I can use to help make being in Zormite more fun, and obviously it will allow other leaders to make their respective kingdoms more interesting as well.

Actually you are a regular player. Just because you have debug access to make new levels and add ppl don't mean a thing. Its like me owning the MMT. I have rights to add, remove, kick and redo my levels. But difference is i am also a events master. Like Bjorn explained it to me one day (paraphrasing) "you don't own MMT..you just own it in RP". The same thing applies to all kingdom leaders. You don't really own it..its just a huge rp guild. You can do what I can (well more rights) but its the same..its just a rp guild.

With this proposal, the person who listens to the people, plans the event, and requests/authorizes it, also gets to be the one who summons the monsters as well.

Well the idea was to target people who would be on. Like say for cresent pirates...you have Alan and say Felix who has hosted a lot. you don't want to give it just to the kingdom leader. What if the leader is barely online. Like Draxx. He's barely online anymore. So why give him the summon rights if he won't be. Its a waste. I say find the people who spend the most time online and give them the summon right. That way your guaranteed to have a rp event that will be done no problemo.
Just a normal announcement. I will probably try to host a rp event tommorow so all show up who are going too.
