No the rebirth is fine so are the rewards, the issue I think was players did not like the loss of exp and going back to 0% on that given level. Adding more frustration to it, was the fact miners, or safe zone warriors ended up going from a really low level up to 80+. Some left because losing exp they couldn't handle it, pretty hardcore for them, others left as they refused to level players who didn't even try, when it took them months of work it took others a lucky exp boost in seconds. It is too late now to take out the rebirth system as those who stayed liked the rewards and the goal to work towards, but it is not too late to remove the gifted exp to others, and amend the amount of exp loss, I know you wanted to the server to all stay on an average level for low players to catch up to high players and balance it out, but honestly mir is about being rewarded for putting in the work and the grind, and not being rewarded for standing around all day or afking it. So amend the exp loss and free exp lottery gift, solve that issue and see a return in user count, because even though the user count took a big hit, it's still has higher numbers than many other servers, and is still the best server I personally have ever had the pleasure playing on. People want this server and people would love to return but refuse to whilst grinders are being punished too harsh and casuals are being rewarded too great.
On topic - whats the crack with the event, we getting a time and a little more info, and please don't say its going to be useless carrots because we are way passed that low exp reward, I hope there will be something for all levels, if not just a lazy buff added I guess it would be better than nothing.
