Ectar:   Weekend specials and missions etc are prepared by each regional server. A global event can be proposed by our head office due to doing something new being introduced or something very rare being made available (like free exp to crew exp, 2x exp for every win, discounts on all tier 9 or 10 tanks). It's not just the RU server that comes up with global events however, they are also proposed by other regions too. There is events where all regions will always have something awesome (Christmas/New Year and VE day for example). For other bigger events, it's option for a region to participate. In most cases a region not taking part is because they already have a plan/strategy in place or they want to see how the event is received on other servers (Not just received, but also what the participation is like).  There is never a guarantee that because something new appears on one server, it will come to other servers.  Sometimes it appears only on one server as a trial. Specials are planned roughly 2 months in advanced and are locked in with 1 month advance. They can't be changed at this stage unless there is a major/serious reason to do so. Off the top of my head this has only been done once in EU and once in NA in the past 3 years. I don't know if RU or SEA has had to change an event at short notice.   When it comes to special events on specific servers, it's normal for one server to have more bonuses during that event that other servers. There is no obligation or reason for a server to have to "make up the gap" so their region can have an awesome weekend also. We'd like to hope players can understand why during certain times there is a "big" event on another region and can understand that in a few weeks/months time they'll have something similar.  Over the course of a month, it's normal for most servers to offer players similar bonuses. They're just simply given out at different times for various reasons already covered in this thread. If it's not in a 1 month period it will be 2.  You have to remember we're a free to play game with a progression system. Giving away premium content all the time and allowing players to skip the progression kinda kills the desire for anyone to invest either time or money in the game. Keeping events interesting and as an incentive for a wide pool of players without simply being a model where each weekend tops the previous weekend isn't as easy as some players think. There is a limited amount of discounts bonuses that can be applied and we don't want to make things seem repetitive or predictable. Do we get it right all the time? No we don't and we never will because we're never going to have an event where everyone is happy. Each weekend, week or month various different players are looking for different things to help them along. We're truly sorry we can't make everyone happy each weekend, nor can we guarantee you'll have the same as other regions. As much as it can see there is not enough, there can also be a case of having too much.    A recent example of this would be when PAX just happened in NA. EU will have a similar big event during Gamescom as will RU for when Igromir happens. Whilst there may be multiple PAX events in a year, Gamescom and Igromir are 5-6 day events. It's hard to explain this sometimes as multiple times people just look at what another server is doing, and want the same. I can understand the desire for being treated "fairly" but then on the flip side it's not really fair that when another region is trying to hype up an event, what they do doesn't seem special because it's happening everywhere else too.  Exclusivity is always going to happen, otherwise special events are not going to be special.
