I've got a question! How rare are host pins after they stop giving that months pin away? Are they considered rare? Or do they become rare after a few months? I would really appreciate some help!

Or do they become rare after a few months? I would really appreciate some help! aengus 04-20-2007, 03:25 AM alot of people consider rare to be something you can no longer obtain without trading (or in some cases difficult to get like stitch and sparrow) but if you mean by value, the pins wont have much value until about a year after the host pins have been not available anymore. black33 04-20-2007, 01:00 PM Ok, thanks for your help! Neoteny 04-20-2007, 03:27 PM Host pins haven't been rare since the Jolly Roger. silverbullet 04-20-2007, 09:36 PM Because they have been so much easier to obtain. Neoteny 04-20-2007, 09:47 PM Because they have been so much easier to obtain. Exactly. Um. Remind me: Why were they so rare previously? Were there fewer host events? I don't remember what changed last summer to make host pins suddenly worth so much less. silverbullet 04-20-2007, 09:57 PM Host events were harder to get into, you had a very high chance of DC'ing while in line or in the HOST event itself, and you actually had to trade those host, which made you even more proned to DC'ing. Neoteny 04-20-2007, 10:07 PM Oh, right, right. Thanks for the reminder. silverbullet 04-20-2007, 10:12 PM Oh and don't forget easy 30 second quests where mules can be used to get as many as you want. AceGoalkeeper 04-20-2007, 10:18 PM Oh and don't forget easy 30 second quests where mules can be used to get as many as you want. Yeah, that's true. It's so much easier to get them now. I can't remember how many times i tried to get into that host line and when i finally got in it i was so happy. Then after waiting for those 50 people to get in and it was finally my turn, i DCed. That was my favorite part.. - Ace black33 04-20-2007, 11:36 PM Oh yes i remember that, I could never make it into the lines because only 50 people were allowed in line at a time..
