I've been thinking of little event ideas for a while, and I finally decided on one that pretty much every active member can participate in.
All you have to do is send me a message telling me what you like most about Mabination, and why you keep coming back. It doesn't have to be an essay, but I think this is something you should seriously put some thought into, considering the award: a $10 gift card of your choice (it must be something redeemable online, like a NX card or a Perfect World card. It also must be obtainable by me, so have 1 or 2 back-up options).
I'll take all the answers that I think are deserving of the prize, and give them numbers. Then, with a random generator, I'll choose the winner.
There are a few rules, however:
- You must be a member for more than 3 months. I think that's a fair amount of time, and it keeps alt accounts from being used to cheat.
- You must have more than 100 posts. This lets me know that you are actually active in the community.
- You must be comfortable with your answer being shared with the community. I'd like to share these with everyone else after the event is over, because I think a lot of times we forget how great the Nation can be.
That's about it. The event will end on October 26th at 11:59a.m., which is two weeks from now. If you have any other questions, feel free to PM me about them.

I'm glad I figured that part out then. =) Hope a lot of people do this Event.

I only have like 3 reasons.
One of them is that I'm a mod, so I have to keep coming back. qq

I love this idea Hannah, I think people really need to see some positive thoughts about the site instead of the rants that we see sometimes, and I can't wait to see what people have to say. PM sent!

I'll participate when I'm home or something~
Since I can't do anything good while in school, as in I'd like to put some thought into it.
Good luck to everyone!

I'm not really concerned with the prize. A while back I responded to this same question when Phunkie asked me as part of his one-year anniversary as a moderator. My response follows.
Mabination has an incredibly mature community and excellent staff who do a great job at maintaining its positive atmosphere. It also serves as a sort of confraternity for the best and brightest Mabinogi players. I feel at ease discussing character builds and strategies as well as recent news.
The forum has several great functions such as its tools section, the private userpage (where I post my research) and the shop (though I really wish it had a greater selection of pets).
Thanks for asking. It shows that the staff really cares about its members.
Some time later I see that we're still asking ourselves the same questions.

Seems like a good idea and I'm interested in what peoples reasons will be. Though I can already guess a few popular ones.

I'm actually surprised I've not gotten many messages about this, considering it's just a simple statement for $10. I know I just posted it last night, but c'mon guys, it's something anyone can answer.

Some people may want to keep their opinion private perhaps, which is possibly why? :what:
They may not be the most comfortable sharing the opinions with the rest of the community, whether they know some or not.
