It all comes down to the same thing. Interests. Events just aren't interesting for me/others. Same thing with how some players only play certain modes (glad, training, garden, rotation, cw, etc). I've been on this server since 2015 and have only participated in one event before.

I feel like if anything hosting events kills off other rooms that are currently in progress. Sure events are a great way to entertain some of the community. But as long as they are able to find a good balance between attention towards event players, cw players, casual players, and questing then I think they're doing a good job.
