There are many reasons that people may not want or be able to participate in an event that requires a large output of time and effort. Not to mention that for many, when something you do for fun starts to feel like a chore, it's no longer fun.
You don't have to like or agree with the way other people choose to play here, but belittling people for having a different play style is extremely rude.

But I see where she is coming from. The problem is not people not liking a certain type of event. Not at all! But one should think that if you don't like an event, just don't take part in it and if you still want the item, you buy them from someone else in the market. No problem at all, right? And there is also no problem in saying something like "These aren't my favorite types of events, I have no luck with them", like many people here did, even here in this thread.
But instead, in the past, some people decided to get rather offensive, basically saying we were "forcing" them to do stupid stuff they did not like. And they really worded it in a similar way, using the way "being forced" more than once. As if we were pointing a gun at them screaming "Collect Skaura Flowers now!". And that is a bit frustrating, when you actually put lots of work (both art and code) into an event and people make it look like you did something horrible to them and get accusative. So I do not believe Nellie wanted to be disrespectful to the people who simply do not favor these kinds of events, but was just referring to the people who have been quite rude in their statements regarding such events in the past.
But I don't think this topic needs to be debated in this thread any further. I do believe we have found an acceptable solution where both we and the users who do not like these events or don't have the time for them can profit from and so far I have not seen any such complains, which makes me happy.

I have rethought the post I made in this slot. It was not rude or insulting, but considering it was just slightly critical it probably would have been viewed that way. Considering the negative hearts I got for saying something nice I don't want to take the chance.
Don't be unforgiving and negative me, friends! I can forgive, after all. And I'm the big monster, so it should be easy for the rest of you.
Since I can't outright delete the post, and have thus wasted everyone's time, I shall now redeem it by sharing a joke. (Unless you hate the joke. Then I've wasted more of your time. BUT I TRIED OKAY.)
Spoiler: The Joke
John is working in his store when he hears the booming voice of God coming from above, demanding, "John, sell your store!" John ignores the voice, but every day the voice returns. Each time God tells him, "John, sell your business for four million dollars!" After several weeks, he gives in and sells his business.
After the deal is completed, God shouts down, "John, travel to Las Vegas!"
John asks why.
"John, just take the four million dollars and go to Las Vegas."
John complies, goes to Vegas, and visits a casino.
As soon as he walks through the door, God booms down to John and says, "John, go to the blackjack table and put it all on one hand!"
John understandably hesitates but eventually gives in. He’s dealt an eighteen. The dealer has a seven showing.
"John, take a card!"
"What?! The dealer has-"
"Take a card!"
John tells the dealer to hit him, and gets an ace. Nineteen. John relaxes a bit.
"John, take another card."
"What?!"
"TAKE ANOTHER CARD!"
John asks for another card. It’s another ace. He has twenty and relaxes again.
"John, take another card."
"I have twenty!" John shouts.
"JUST TAKE ANOTHER CARD!" booms the voice.
"Hit me!" John says. He gets another ace, making twenty-one!
And God’s booming voice says, "Un-fucking-believable!"

This event is AMAZING. I love the room items! I have two knuffle sporting the items, one in black and the other in white :)
I have a question though about the cats. If you buy more than one, will they all give you flowers or just the first one?

They will all give you flowers. So if you have 2 cats, you'll get 100 flowers (50 from each) etc.

I'm really enjoying the event so far!
Quick question, though, after I buy the Sakura cat, how soon can I collect flowers?
