im totally agree with you... its totally no sense this decision! after all at what are events for? to have fun with news gameplay (expecially in a unofficial server with static patch).. to move the economy in the game but especially to allow everyone make money for improve themselves or whatever they want to do with their HONEST money... after all everybody moves his ass for this.. make money.. for gain something REAL and DECIDE what and WHEN to do about their items...
ALSO think at all that players that couldnt take part at the event, for any reason, and when they restart, or just back, they would like have their possibility to gain something too.. but snowflakes are untradeble... so their sh*t...
NICE!
