[MR] try a low cost event was Re: event fees

[Becky McEllistrem]

We've done the cheap successful event in the past and I think we go back to our roots and do things the way we used to with the primitive sites or we'll lose a huge portion of our populace.

I'm glad WOW has become so successful but it is possible to do a quality cheap event.  I believe we've lost our roots and need to go back.
