Yes Chris is one of the few i respect as of so far
And about the thread link i really don't want strong items either, most and i only say MOST of the event items are just for show like inferno sword has same stats at firesword. and Phoenix gear is the same as regular stuff, we just want cool looking items, i'm not positive about the hammers tho last i checked hammers had more dmg add on default then normal weapons but i may be wrong, if not that red warhammer looks nice

*Edit* and i meant to bring this up earlier, but if events havn't been held in so long and one was held recently, trivia, why, if events are so rare now, would you offer a prize so trivial as +1 int and +1 cha rings, 2 seperate i might add. If anything if you must make events held rarely, make it worth the while for the players to enjoy.
