And it brings up a very good point. NowIi understand that not every event is planned out 6 months or a year in advance but how hard would it be to create a Calender here on the forum that would show players in a glance what the WST was every Tuesday, The dates the Halloween, Winter and Spring events were scheduled to begin and end.. (tentaive since we all know they tend to extend them but at least we'd know when they were starting). The could add in Double XO weekends, notices when they planned a week long Rikti invasion or whatever.
Again this wouldn't have to be something that was completed 9-12 month in advance... make it a living document that could change when needed. So until they decided the date for say the halloween event just don't add it to the calender.. when they do pop in the dates and people would know weeks even months ahead of time. Place the calender thread in the Dev's announcement portioin of the forums with a sticky so it stay near the top and players don't find themselves paging through tons of patch note updates to find it.
Stipulation: this would not be something the players can alter only devs. The current Players event calender would continue as it is now.. this seems like a no brainer since none of us have a CLUE of exactly what the Devs have planned for us or exactly when it will occur but i figured I BETTER add it or sure enough SOMEONE will want to know if they can add stuff and make changes.
"Why sure Johnny. Why don't you tell us when we are having the next Rikti invasion. Don't worry if it happens to be the same week we were planning to release issue 21.. we can always postpone that a couple weeks!" LOL

I have no objection to this, seems like a good idea to me!
I noticed a thread in players questions that refered to this
