Why can't we talk about the Elffandel event?

Exactly what the title says. The December 6th Maintenance thread was closed, which makes sense, the maintenance is over. But the one thread we had in general Discussion where we are supposed to be able to "Convene with your fellow Riders and discuss anything about the game." Was also closed.

Yes, most of the posts were complaints, but thats not our fault. The complaints are from people who have tried it 10, 50, 100 times and still not had success. For other people failing, it is comforting to know we aren't the only ones. And we arent the worst excuse of a gamer in the world.

And now if someone does succeed with tips other than "don't be a trickster" and "spend 85 ellun to max your height", we cant hear about it becuase our thread was taken away.

I just don't understand why, in an area where we are allowed to talk about anything about the game, we cant talk about something that is very recent and bothering everyone. Its not surprising how dead this forum is if we can't share our successes AND dissappointments. We didnt design the event. Its not our fault we don't like it.

I finally gave up on the event, but i would like to know if anyone has new tips now that theyve been doing the event for a couple miserable days. So if this post doesn't get deleted or closed, and you have tips other than:

Max height
Jump
Standard mode
Find the pattern

I would like to see them. Because i was really looking forward to that sleigh.
