Event question?

It's not important enough to me to post in "Support", but just curious...

When you "Give" to earn a Spring Point for the event today, does the user actually get anything from it? Do they get a point?

Molly was a bit unclear about it. <.<

I just gave you a gift now. Did you get something?

I don't think so.

I'll keep a running tally until I get another post... that hopefully someone will post... that they've clicked my button. :mcsmirk:


(I tried this with a mule but wasn't allowed, what's the point of blocking shared IPs if it does nothing? XD)

I'm also curious so I gave you and Fiel-kun a gift.

Aha okay! Thanks WonderStar, didn't get a point for it.

Then why can't mules push the buttons? :mcheh:

If I remember correctly, there was an event a couple of years ago when a user DID get something out of receiving these type of gifts. It made sense to block same IPs then and I think the algorithm was reused even if it wasn't needed.

Just my guess. :mctongue:

Aha, that's probably it.

It's just in starkad's event code by default. :mcheh:
