Another special feature of the game is that the ToP GMs often hold various fun-filled activities to entertain players. So far they have held more than 1 thousand activities, with fun for everyone.

With Christmas coming soon, the ToP team wants players to have a memorable Christmas, so they will be holding some activities including, “Challenge the Black Dragon, Win Advanced Equipment” in Dec. ToP GMs will organize players into teams to challenge the powerful Black Dragon during the holidays.

In addition, many forum activities have been held, such as the “Screenshot Contest”, “Video Contest”, “Costume Design Contest” and so on. Even when the server is under maintenance, ToP still holds activities such as the “Smartest Pirates” and “Forum Auction” for players to kill time.
In the near future,a ToP Auction similar to the eBay Auction System will be released , which will enable players to use Reputation to bid on some advanced equipment, and a “GM Election System” will be released soon as well, by which some players will have a chance to experience the feeling of being GMs.
