Hi there -- first time poster, long time lurker.
I read an offhand comment today in Discord that there were some anonymous complaints about a proliferation of blessed zones and that those complaints led to restrictions on the number of blessed zones.
I wanted to voice my support as strongly as I can in the opposite direction. As a fairly new player to the server, the plentiful blessed zones and the little trivia events Deein held for them were one of the most fun aspects of leveling up. I loved trying to be the first one to answer a trivia question so that I could ask for Paw to be blessed and then promptly go there and die repeatedly to enchanter mobs (how does anyone survive those mezzes?!).
Encouraging small, positive, fun and often silly interactions between the server administrators and players seems like a really clear win to me. It made me feel more motivated to play and I know that many other people in my guild feel the same way. There was one week when we were able to get a blessing for Requiem of Hate and we spent so much time there that I got down to a -10% zone modifier!
Thank you for the consideration -- I'll obviously continue to love playing on this server either way but just wanted to let you all know how meaningful the small things like this are for many of us new players.
