How about no, they put a decent price on it, it's a year after the event, that's plenty of time for you to flaunt it on your character over new players. They're just meant to be cool little season things.
Special snowflake eh? Yeah, like that insult has never been used before. As I said in my post, it's about encouraging active participation in events and of course remaining subscribed. But yes, I do think that you should have to participate in an event to receive its rewards. You snooze, you lose.
