    Hi, my fellow islanders are very excited for the anniversary event but yet again islanders only got access to cosmetic items through the NPC Oz. Isn't this a bit lacklustre for a anniversary event? the most exciting event of the year? Even if you don't like islanders at least have mercy on their poor souls. Islanders are the first characters a new player meets and yet islanders are treated like doodoo.

    Islanders was recently told they would be included more in events, yet this happened.

    Please, add in the other event NPCs (Becky & Laura) so islanders can participate or add in storage so islanders can become self sustained without having to rely on events. We understand that adding extra NPCs, doing custom edits etc takes a lot of time and it might not be worth doing for 15 islanders but this is a damn anniversary event. So yea... please give us NPCs or STORAGE! FUCK eventlanding.

    "I'm gonna play a class, where the appeal is to be self-sufficient, limited, and cut off from the rest of the game; with a long, slow, but vanilla grind."
    Event happens:
    "WAH! Why are you not including us with the rest of the game?!"
    "WAH! Why can't you make it easier for me to be self-sufficient?!"
    "WAH! Why can't we get special equips that weren't meant for us?!"

    God, I've been a lurker here for many years, and an islander off-and-on.
    These semi-annual threads are so lame and I don't blame the admins for not catering to this niche, whiny group.

    Just so you know, that wasn't directed at you or anybody in particular. No hard feelings. :]

    My point is that threads like these have existed practically since legends opened up.
    An islander is generally more of a secondary, long-term character with virtually no access to the rest of the game (past events actually tarnished that meta, sadly.)
    If you want to participate in the event, make a main character and enjoy the game on them. Just my two cents.

    they do what every other job does in this 2003 mushroom game, press 1 button to attack. Only difference... islanders stay on maple island. That's what I heard at least.

    HI JONTE and my cute islanders
    not sure about the storage thing as kimmy mentioned but as old islander blood i will try to push for more eventful things (within the bounds of possibility) in the future.
    rn as you all know there were a lot of giant changes in general so its hard to factor everything in in one patch

    also to everyone else:
    most islanders have offland characters, so pls no hate -- they r good people :shamemb:

    HI SERIN, sorry if I sounded rude in my suggestion. Staff should ofc prioritize bug fixes etc first to make sure the patch is working like intended. If anything can be done after those fixes, please consider adding the event NPCs to Amherst or maybe the cake map? Thank you for replying.

    Just double checked what the NPC's give and unfortunately the items that are given as rewards might throw off the integrity/balance of Maple Island in general (not specifically islanders but general players + population). I don't see this being a possible action at the moment. I understand the want to have more varieties of events for Anniversary itself; but at the same time I don't think it's wise to suddenly add certain items to the island especially as it wasn't intended at the moment.

    I remember discussing with you/Chris/Justin on items that can possibly make things unfair for Islanders in the long run regarding 'non-genuine Maple Island' so I think for this event we will have to hold off. If you have any suggestions besides storage I'm open to listening (feel free to dm me on discord); but I can't 100% guarantee any acceptance/changes especially cause Islanders' tend to play mostly/only during events (dONT LIEeee). I suggest you guys make a group chat or something and come up with plausible events you would find enjoyable that Staff will be able to provide for you without having to recode things in it's entirety or make custom items especially knowing you guys can already 1 hit most things. I don't want to give you guys false hope at all so if it's deemed impossible I'll strike it down fast for you.

    Also going back to the Anniversary event topic; I see there is currently no hair dresser NPC's for the hair/face coupons-- I think this can be implemented in Amherst without much issue so I will talk to the team about it and let you know!
