Do you like events?If yes,which one you like the most?
As there are so many different events I won't be able to list them separately,sorry.

When I started playing ESO in 2019 and Elsweyr was released one of my first events I did ever join was the Charity event where we raised money for killing dragons.
I loved it so much :)

    Which one is it where you get double rewards and bonuses for crafting writs? That's my favorite.

    Witches and Jesters make me queasy. Not a fan of "funsies" of that kind in games, but to each his or her own I guess.

    Plunder skulls from killing any boss of my choice anywhere in the world is the best event hands down. The rest with specific bosses/goals always have too many campers ruining the fun...like right now dragons are barely landing before getting techno robot nuked :neutral:

    witches fest isn't "funsies" lol...you kill any boss be it WB or delve boss and get rewarded with plunder skulls...best event imo

    New Life Festival
    New Life, with the Jester's Festival second because they're the only ones which actually have unique activities to do instead of just extra rewards tacked on to the same dailies, bosses etc. which are in the game all year round. Maybe I've gotten lucky with the games I've played previously but to me that's what an in-game event is, new content to play, not just extra drops.

    I love motifs so any event that has a broad offering there is good for me.

    Also, any event that increases the populations around world bosses, pleases me.

    "Happy work for Hallowjack,
    When summer falls he comes back!
    Put the sweetrolls in the sack,
    Or suffer merry Hallowjack!

    His head's a pumpkin, eyes aglow,
    Whence he came, no one can know!
    May his legend ever grow,
    Or suffer merry Hallowjack!

    At late frostfall, he appears,
    He represents your darkest fears!
    Stifle screams tonight my dears,
    Or suffer merry Hallowjack!"

    Not sure if I have a favorite right now. At first it was the Witch's festival. You could grind the achievements until your character had them and move on to the next character. Then they added rewards unique to specific activities. Then I think the MYM became my favorite but the long queue times became tiresome. I enjoyed the most recent New Life celebration but not sure I liked it more than the rest.

    The one where I can log in after the event's start, have under 100 ping from central Europe, don't have downtimes randomly or on the last day's afternoon, can farm some style pages and sell them for tons of gold.
    The best techniques are passed on by the survivors.

    As a PvE soloist, MYM is a wonderful time to repair keeps and earn transmute crystals through rewards for the worthy and end of campaign coffers. This past MYM boosted my crystals by over 250. By contrast, a normal 2 weeks outside MYM nets me about 14 crystals from one solo pledge a day. I wouldn't want more than one or maybe two MYM events a year but they do come in handy.

    As far as 'fun', I like all the events in their own way.

    Normally it is the last day of the event when game breaks down but not the first day,well unless it is undaunted.

    Jester's Festival
    I like the Jester's Fest because of the humour in the dialogues and the voice acting (everyone's great, but fake Queen Ayrenn, and the Butcher are priceless) as well as the merriment of the mementos and the costumes worn by the NCPs in town. In terms of rewards I like the Jubilee because just doing daily writs gets you a great number of event boxes, and they always contain really cool things. Finally, I like the MYM because of how lively it makes Cyrodiil (alas, I wish performance could catch up) and even for a potato PvPer like myself it's a lot of fun.
