if you want players to be happy why not prizes come from your own pocket.
Here's my take.
I get why players are upset, especially those that didn't win. I personally don't participate, although I have been asked to. I have not been forced or coerced to, it's just a personal decision not to partake as I don't like to gamble. However, the rules are there up-front. They aren't scamming anybody. The last time I asked, they were pretty open with how much they were making from the raffles. Honestly, to organize an event on that scale takes time and effort. If they want to take some profit for that, I personally don't mind. Also, as far as I know, they have a system that is designed in a way that cannot be rigged. So, I do not see how they would be able to rig the system to make friends or themselves win.
At the end of the day, the saying goes to vote with your own wallet. If you do not feel that it is worth it, do not buy a ticket. It's that simple. Supply and demand is a natural thing, even in raffles. If the system isn't working, they will not be able to continue large-scale raffles like this.
So, my take is that I am indifferent to this raffle and think it is managed well. Additionally, I hold no qualms with the hosts taking a portion as profits as long as they are open about it. I personally have hosted several events before that have cost me gold out of my own pocket, not to mention time. Despite this, people still complained, ranted and got mad at me even though there is nothing in it for me. At the end of the day, you will always have dissatisfied players.
However, all this being said, I do not think it is allowed to post pay-for-entry raffles on the forums. I believe it is a forum rule somewhere (or at least, there was), so that is their mistake for posting it.

I must say you have reason at some point. If they are open with the amount they profit it's fine. Thing is other players will start taking this as an example to make gold, filling forums with "raffle threads" and spamming on towns. Besides that, some players will eventually take advantage of the situation and will end scamming. I'm not saying all of them will do, but there will be a couple of cases. At the end of the day, it's your own fault if you get scammed, but I don't want to see that much drama here because STS takes no actions against them.
ill be willing to use my time and energy for 300m profits 1hr 120m profit . And game is not dead. If hes genuinely want to host and make.players happy money should come from his pocket and not organize a derby. No one pointing gun okay okay its the same cliche quote i heard of the ponzi-scheme scam "no one forced you" but is it deemed appropriate and legitimate? shallow excuses.
Hi mely
okay, that being said I guess ill starting hosting raffles now raking millions easily maybe ill start with 10m prize with 500k entrance to entice little players and then whales will come and get the 10m. thanks! appreciated it! ya im so dumb I should had realized this before instead of farming my day in evg and dm.
You're free to do what you want, as long as it is within the parameters of the TOS. Personally, I don't farm. Kudos to you if you do.
I do see your point about precedent. This is why I mentioned that there was a forum rule here at one point that pay-to-play raffles were not allowed here. I am not sure where the sticky went, but there used to be a sticky that talked about this at length.

Is it against tos? I mean if its not this is the whole new event idea that can be host by guildmasters/officers and players fishing tickets in pier. Can someone confirm?
raffle is good thing cuz some players want to gamble like that and its nothing wrong that ppl who make them make profit. Dont be jealous if somebody make gold
keep defending your friend marsuu earning 1b per 1 week pickpocketing money from players. "No one forced them" Scammers
Basically long story short no matter what you do there's always gonna be someone who's gonna rant & be negative about it. I've seen Encryptions LITERALLY give out 100M from his own pocket & get slandered by this same handful of toxic people so as the saying goes if you have nothing nice to say shove it where the sun doesn't shine!

And numerous amounts of people have LITERALLY seen the image of him sending a housemail of an attempt to manipulate prices...
Aside from the sugarcoats and acid among this drama.
There is always multiple sides to a story
with a derative side of things driven by derived intent.
Man just stfu my whole forums is filled with this bs go get a life spending hours arguing on a forums thread whats ur problem he is making gold so what? Its like same as merching nobody asked your dumb *** to join the raffle

instead of "300m raffle" it should've been "300m worth in items raffle"... This is like click bait.
