    Heya all I would like to suggest so they make it so that you have to hit a certain amount of playtime in order to win DPs as we've seen on the recent DP a lot of the winners were some random players that may or may not reconnect to the server some of I believe haven't even claimed the head after winning it.

    It should be that you have to of had a certain amount of playtime gained within the last 14 to gain a DP head.

    I'm neutral with this. Whilst yes it is disappointing seeing some new players win a head only to then never play on the server again and that hesd becomes lost so to say.

    But then also, why shouldn't a new player win a drop head ?

    I joined summer last year, I just missed out on the independence day rares so was looking forwards to Halloween. I won my first drop head at Halloween, only a few months from joining. What's to say that because I was new I wasn't deserving of a win? Sure you get some players who only join to win stuff then never play again. But also players that become long term members who've played nearly every day since,, probably encouraged by the fact that they were lucky and won a drop head.

    Also, what's to say a long term member that wins a drop head is going to stick around? Many longer term friends I was friends with no longer play. Many of whom have had years of rares collected. The debate could go either way, there never any guarantees that a play who wins will stick around, and not allowing newer players to win for those reasons then seems unfair

    People are allowed to use up to 1 alt account tho. People might haven’t used their alt in the last 14 days so that would be a problem.

    No support. I don’t think skyblock is a place were people are excluded like, although, I could see people with a certain playtime having a higher chance of winning or something like that. But excluding certain people completely is not something I’d wanna see.

    We need to exclude inactive people because it takes away from the people who actually play

    I actually agree more with what you replied I don't think they should be excluded as them winning might make them want to invest more playtime into the server but I do believe regular players should have a higher chance at the very least
