I want to understand why you think you're forced to play in events. Sure, there are rewards on offer, but these are meant as incentives. Aka they draw people to the event who would otherwise not have participated due to some intrinsic motivation like developing their character or defending their faction's asset, etc. The way you're talking, players are assumed to participate in all events, and this rp requirement is taking away their rightful spoils for this "labor". Again, I hear this feedback, and I'll be making some changes about rp requirements for rewards. But saying that you're forced to write them doesn't make sense to me. If you don't like doing it this much, you just wouldn't do it, right? You can still just farm trading rewards and bounties and enjoy a top scoring spot on the leaderboard if you don't wanna develop rp around the event.
I want to understand why you're even asking this question or how it's even relevant. Your thing is events, right? Shouldn't that mean that you're looking to give people the best experience possible? How does mandatory RP improve our experience as a player base? Do people have fun writing RP for the sole purpose of claiming a reward? Is this aspect what people will return to future events to experience? People who want to write RP will do so if they want to, people who don't want to and want to just casually engage with the event will be frustrated by it as has been evidenced in this thread.
I appreciate that you'll look at making changes though
