Im understanding of the fact that everyone is waiting for the RUNUO to start up but..... Why don't we get a power hour or some Dbl gains block going to increase some player traffic? For some the wait might just make them disinterested and we will lose the playerbase all together.....
Just a thought

i understand the point, as i myself am one of those players (not that i would be playing in pangaea the way things were going with almost no one playing and no real purpose in your gameplay.and i also need to finish my degree first, then i can play)
but a double gain weekend won't fix it. we have to accept that if ppl are waiting for the new pangaea, then it's gonna be like this. the only way it would "fix" is if we had permanent double gains until new pangaea arrives..and that's not a fix. that's a cover.
whenever there's nothing going around, if there's a double gain weekend, ppl log in for the gains and then log out as soon as the weekend is over. there was no real difference. it was just a bunch of numbers on the online count, but the shard was still dead/afk/nothing happening except macroing

Perhaps stick some rewards in a dungeon or something? I know POL is going to end soon but why not give some people who do play a reason to play? no just playing with themselves

Dbl gains will bring ppl back, but only to macro since we get our char with us.

The last time I was around for double gains, I was working 10-15 hour days in road construction. So by the time I got home from work, it was time for bed again and sometimes not even time for supper or a shower. Depending on how dead I felt, I would usually shower in the morning instead. I have yet to hit a double gain weekend when I've got the time for it. It would be nice to have before the new launch, but I agree how some people would no doubt log on just for the double gains then step into the shadows again. Although to the people still lurking on the server now, it would be a nice benefit to see. It would give me incentive to go hunting on my warrior and train his butt up. I prefer to hunt for gains over afk for gains. Though some skills just seem too annoying to train without home macroing. Even then I don't afk to begin with even in my home. I just feel safer there. Though it's been proven that not even your own home is 100% safe all the time.
