I would take more events over being bored any day. And I follow rule #1: "You don't have to play every event." Even I get burned out sometimes and take a break, but I am also aware that there are other players that crave more play time when I am tired...and vice versa. Except: it’s a coalition event. Unless you want to be a jerk to your team you pretty much have to play those.

Yes it is a coalition event, and for the most part I play 99% of these. So you're saying that if I busted my tinykitty to help my coalition in various other coalition events, I don't deserve a break because I would be a jerk to my coalition for doing so? Because that is exactly what you're saying.
My coalition doesn't prescribe to belittling, shaming, calling others jerks, requiring players to play every single event and score well else be booted mentality because one of us chooses not to play that week because X, Y or Z. We do communicate our reason for not attending and in every single case we have been more than understanding. I have yet to see my coalition get snarky or kick someone out for it. We are more of relaxed group who enjoys the game as a game and not as a secondary job. So, no.. I am not being a jerk or think of others as being one for letting their coalition members know about not attending an event because I or they chose not to play for whatever reason. Because you really don't have to play every event. If your coalition makes you, then that's what you signed up for in joining that particular group, that doesn't define other players on other teams, nor is it fair to judge them so as well.
Rule #1 about gaming: "Have fun." This is what I tell everyone.

Machine said: I pretty much suggested several times that OPTIONAL events can be scheduled as often as players want without them having to play them. Coalition events are pretty much non optional.

Coalition events are pretty much non optional. Since when are they non-optional? That's your coalition's mandate... please don't clump all coalitions and their respective teams into that pile. I do understand your point though, as I believe that most players feel "compelled" to play to help their coalitions. They do need to release more individual events, a promise that they made awhile back and i hope that they can fullfill once Dominaria releases.

We both know that being in a coalition requires you to play coalition events. And that's fine, unless there are more pressing matters in real life. What's the added value of being in a coalition and not playing the coalition events? I seriously doubt that the majority of coalitions are fine by having members constantly not playing these events.
Mainloop25 said: Luckily I avoided SWW's this event but I think it has to do with the way these Hibernum events were coded. I say let's not run these HOU events as coalition events anymore. Probably a waste of resources to try and fix them at this point.
Mainloop25 said: Perhaps there are ripple effects to implementing these old events that screw up everything across the game. I don't remember people having all these issues before the event started running.

I would have preferred PvE exist. It seems all the complaining when B4T and another big coalition event were scheduled back to back has already been forgotten. I also didn't like the two coalition events back to back and yet some people are asking for more. Especially starting a 5-node one on a Monday.
