Only when the devs need it for testing. Big new patch, change of server (eu1_new for example).

Its fun once in a while to have 200 players in a server, but to be honest i got bored of it after 30 minutes, might as well be 50v50 as far as im concerned.

XP should not be a reason to play or not to play, grinding once in a while is ok, but focus on keeping the game fun. Regular XP events give a temporary boost to playercount, but will encourage grinding and have a bad influence on the activity over time.

I disagree. I see where you're coming from, but I think there's more to it than that.
An XP boost is a fantastic way to get people back playing and get people interested again.
So often I'll put down one game for another and completely forget about the one I just set down. Giving people a reason to play again might just get those super casual players more active.
Granted, double XP and normal XP are just fine with me; I'm a cRPG addict.

We might do more double XP events, especially when testing stuff etc.

YAYY. I hadn't touched the game in a few weeks seriously (played maybe 15 minutes then quit few times a week) but the double XP event got me playing for hours once more. ^.^

to be fair i enjoyed the 150-200 player battles more than double xp :D (i changed player a lot)

with high players i had more fun and i didn't rage about ranged or cav :o

with so many players archers and cav don't seem to have as much impact as the infantry mobs are multiple and large. Fun all round

I would definitely be up for Double XP once a month, perhaps on a certain date each month or like the second or third Saturday each month.

It would be something to look forward to and be something people can plan for in advance.

The man himself has spoken and yea im an addict but when the double XP came i played prolly 9 hours straight earning prolly 2 million XP and the server was almost full all day i think it was fantastic and the polls look good i couldnt imagine once a week but once a month or every 2 months i feel would be perfect!

double xp weekends once a month would be great and give breath of fresh air every once in a while.

While that is great, I think a programmed double-exp weekend/day every month/couple of months would be even more optimal as people can plan ahead.

IE I was working all double exp day and feel a sad panda that I missed it!

The problem with double XP events is that if they become too frequent, people will start waiting for them to play.

The people that already consistently play cRPG will most likely not quit and only play once a month for two days.
My vote is for once a month and make it last a weekend so those who are working weekends still have a shot at some double XP game time.
