So, do the egghunt popups still appear?
Or is the event cancelled beacuase of the lagging / high traffic?
Just curious - -I've been browsing around kofk and didnt' get any popup...
Edit: ok, got an egg-popup a fw second ago - sorry for disturbing

@LadyCatherine:
Since they appear randomly you may not find one in a while or several in a row. It's just a matter of luck.
Keep browsing and they'll appear

I hope there will be another way to get those items, because just saying "Your loss!" and that's it is not really a solution...
i agree with that. :s
i
know it was not your intention at all, but i can't help but in a way feel like i'm being punished for someone else's cheating with the way things are. and i think a lot of other users feel the same.
and i don't know if they feel the same on this, but imo the bunny den is way better than the chicken items.
so if there was another way (even if it was really difficult or something) to get the full set that would be really great. :/
especially that for a lot of time it was REALLY hard to collect a single egg and now there are still some difficulties.

worst idea of event ever. For the entire duration due to down times and lag I only got 14 eggs. Honestly I wish i had been botting too just to be able to get a single item. I can't even afford to buy one egg and now they stopped appearing at all after yesterday. At least for me. Sorry but... This event. Not good.

You should be very ashamed of yourself just for this statement.
Not only is it morally wrong, but you basically said "I wish I would have been part of the people who not only ruined the event for everyone else, but destroyed a whole server!"
Humanity seems to have lost all sense and decency.

My, that's exactly how I feel about it. I just didn't realise until now. It really feels like someone would say "others did wrong, so you got to pay for it". u_u
@Lila
Yeah, sadly it really is always the same. We had a problems with bots before, hadn't we? I just can't remember what it was... maybe the reason why we got the captcha tests..?
What I really can't understand is how the botting can go on now. I thought with the captcha test it should be over. o_O
And some people should really think their statements over. You don't want to be the one, who don't gets the items, but you wouldn't really rather be the one responsible for other people not getting them either, do you? -__-
I'd rather not get any items than be such an a******. >_<

I'd rather just do the event, thank you very much. :')
Why can't the botters be tracked down and banned?

Is it even possible to cheat now, with the anti-bot test thingy ?! I thought cheaters were done now ;/

I was worried when I first noticed that KofK was lagging like crazy. I thought it might have something to do with the egg hunt, but I didn't know there was so many cheaters botting all over, so that the server got all lagged only because of them.
Now I'm so pissed! I only had two egghunt items I would've like to have (the hairclip-thingy and the brooch, both in coffee/soft pink). I've been online quite many hours now, since I'd like to get even ONE of those items I want, and still have only 92 eggs.
Just... why are there these cheaters?! I always had that picture in mind that almost everyone here on KofK are almost adults or at least mentally grown-ups! Come on, it's not a matter of life and death to get all possible items and stuff here! There's many things I haven't got, even though I wanet them, but hey, life goes on. So please, my dear cheaters: GO OUT TO GET A LIFE and give the honest players a chance to enjoy this forum, just like it's meant to be!

It's always possible to cheat. Sadly, CAPTCHA's aren't almighty.

Yes, we had captchas implemented against this, and as some of you hopefully noticed, it did help a lot in the beginning. Sadly programs nowadays are well able to pass most captchas and the only method to make this bot-proof would be to add one of these horrible captchas that are even impossible to read for most humans, which I refuse to do.
