Alright here we go
According to the dictionary, purge means gettin rid of unwanted things. There have been instances in history where communities have gone through with the idea of a 'purge day' which was basically ethnice/religious cleansing and on that particular day, the area was devoid of any of the laws, rules and regulations that might have been governing them. Even in modern civilization, purge day has been observed a few centuries ago.
now getting to the first question, what is Faeo Purge Day? It is basically an even created by jesters and admins together for the citizens of faeo. In this event, all existing attack rules cease to be applied for an entire day and anyone, anywhere can attack anyone, anywhere. Basically anyone who has had beef with some xyz player and has been unable to retaliate due to the provisions of the attack rule, can, on purge day, attack his foe(but not more than 10 time per player). There are safe spots for players who're too scared to come out and have fun(or probably die a gruesome death). You actually dont need any reason to attack anyone on this Faeo Purge Day. You can attack players for revenge, for having beef with u, or even just fun fights/
now 2nd question.i personally very much liked the idea of this event, but what actually made little sense to me was that all year round 60% people crib about attack rule being this and that and when one fine day jesters and admins decide to give everyone this particular event, so many people lose their heads that it'll be a massacre we all will die blah blah. they'll speak against the attack rule on 364 days and when its removed for 1 day they'll cry again as to why is it removed. I think the event was a great way to let off some steam specially in some very well known cases, where everyone was voicing their opinions *wink wink* lol. But there were these loopholes of safe spots and safe haven areas where the usual hiders behind attack rule could hide yet again, or just not log in that particular day. As countless discussions have shown that the exisiting attack rule wont be removed(and for good reasons), what could be done is that instead of Purge Day we have a Purge Week instead, and that too without warning, just a system message should do(this would mean that the log in % of players would be normal and those who'd have opted to cower behing PCs would also be logged in
) . Then the real purge would start, and no safe havens being active would mean a lot more fun. Only players who make/have beef with others would need to beware of such an event, those who play nicely and warmly would be experiencing just another normal day. or maybe just a couple friendly attacks for fun (*wink wink*)
