    Maybe I wasn't clear. This down time happened exactly during the only time I would have 5h in a row to play. Guess what I ended up doing for those 5 hours...researching other games to play instead. So when everyone else gets compensation for not getting to play for those 5 hours, I get nada just because I have a job and cant play during the week. It would be much better if no compensation were given rather than split the community up like this where half the people love that they got sb, while the other half feel cheated that they didn't get anything. Then the first half attacks the second half calling them whining baby's and to get over it. I guess it is inevitable in a two tier system.

    The entrances can only be 1x1 atm. Tunnel can be any height, width, and length you desire, and what the terrain allows. For high ceilings one is advised to start with a tunnel far above water level and then mine the floor corners down. Roofs can be mined too, except its only as high as you can reach. Also now there's limitations on how close tunnel roofs can be to the surface. With creating decent water tunnel entrances for sailing (even knarrs can be sailed in, threading the needle!)... you want to mine the floor down as much as you can in water before mining straight out from underground. It really helps if the planned entrance tile is at least three-fourths underwater. EDIT: Almost forget to mention that having a small boat nearby is a wonderful precaution. Entrances mined from the surface always have a high lip, which make em almost useless. Not unusual to have some false starts in the beginning. Signed, Highly Experienced Miner of Ship Docks

    I got no sb. Again. I was about to login to grind my sb away after a long work week. Woke up to find the login servers had just gone down. The argument isn't that 5h sb isn't a fair compensation. It's that the people who have just finished saving it back up get zero compensation. How about a separate pool of sb that only fills up when we are compensated for server down time and that always gets drawn from first? This will ensure that people who regularly use their sb will get compensated properly every time.

    Somthing that I was thinking of the other day and talked with a few others in chat and they suggested that I suggest it here so here I am. How about being able to lead animals that are hitched to a cart but I am not on board to drive it, but instead I wish to have it follow behind me like a cart normally would with no animals. To often I'm working beside my cart with horses terraforming and end up going to far and the cart window closes, so I have to go back to the cart, embark on it and move it a few squares and then disembark, work those couple squares then rinse and repeat. I think it would be nice if we could have the horses and cart follow behind us while we are working. It would save a little time and be less annoying. Right now I'm always having to "Right click Embark" Right Click disembark" Right click open" and do it over and over if and when I get out of range of the cart. Thanks

    Maybe in the future it can be placed in the patch notes? That would ensure everyone is notified about it.

    What you're missing is not everyone was sitting at 0 SB so most people don't get the full 5 hours. It just gets topped off. Myself personally had 2 of my 3 premium chars sitting almost full and the last with 3 hours so I didn't get 15 hours of SB, I got about 2 spread over all three characters. Not a complaint, just an explanation since you asked.

    I think free SB is generous, and personally I don't feel rolf owes me anything for downtime. Downtime gets him working on problems that make the game better for me. Besides, access to what? I don't own my account, rolf does. I just pay for the privelage to use it. Granted I HATE that I can't own my own acc, but those are the terms I accepted.

    4 seasons - 4 servers - 1 impalong per season. that could be a nice idea and give some events to the community.

    In Star Wars Galaxies, GMs could make Darth Vader land and start all sorts of *interesting things*. In Neverwinter Nights, GMs had a very nice set of tools allowing them to spawn/control items/mobs and many other things. In Wurm, MrBloodsworth would throw together impromptu events and spawn zombies. Personally I've found that many MMOs become boring over time. No matter how huge the content ist, no matter how often they are updated or what a great genre they have. BUT if they have a type of GM that is focused on making random events just for fun to spice things up, add a bit of randomness, get players out of their grinding - I've always loved it. Create/Give the Head GMs or those approaching Head GM level a set of tools allowing them to do more than whizkill and travel to a players location. Something under ARCH level but allowing them to spawn creatures, perhaps change terrain, perhaps spawn items (containers, armor stands, armor pieces as rewards, etc, etc). I know this is a huge leap of faith as you must be able to trust them AND they should be able to give the common players a good *show*, but there are a few that can do it. =) /flameproofsuit on

    I'll keep this short and sweet. How about a trade chat window to help seperate and assist users in buying and selling items? Features: /Trade toggles the trade chat on or off like CA Help. The chat continually updates regardless of being toggled on or off (So users can see previous offers without having to wait on new posts) This would prevent users from having their chat flooded/spammed with wts wtb and PC posts. Do we "need" it? No. Would be help a lot of us? Yes.

    Looks like there could be a problem with the graphics pack. You can manually re-download it by deleting it and then re-opening the client, which will automatically re-download it again. The graphics pack can normally be found under: C:\Users\<your username>\wurm\packs\graphics.jar (assuming you're on a Windows computer.)

    The in-game maps can be used to mark an "X" for treasure hunts. Would love to make some treasure hunt events. And have a horde of skeletons guarding it, muuhhahhahhahahah .

    20 days and still hitched to the cart. I don't think they are going to unhitch. So if it is random these horses may just be the ones that like to be hitched.

    On the day that the origional poll came out, I personally posted it about 8 times in GL-Freedom - I know Ruger posted it once or twice too. Then in the upcoming days, I was sure to post it at least once a day in GL-Freedom at varying times of day. For proper advertising, how would you suggest that we handle this?

    Awesome!! It's high time we organised that, thank you for taking up the challenge. In the run up, i can help with bricks, mortar, wood and building. I would like to donate mats for the cooks, gold/silver jewellery (60ql) for race participants, and iron for our smiths. Anything, let me know. We need some "out of this world" prizes! Come on all the shipbuilders, horse breeders, armor and weapon smiths out there, start on your Master Pieces. I would like to see some Zombie spawns Lady

    Not everyone lives on the coast and has the chance or need to make a cave boat harbour. In this video I go through the things to look out for when attempting to make one. I know for myself I really enjoy watching youtube videos on Wurm Online. I like seeing what people are up to in their adventure or just what people are doing around their deeds. So, I decided to start making my own wurm videos. Even though I may not be the most knowledgeable about the game I still like documenting what I've been doing and where I've been travelling and at the very least let me go back and watch the some of the many wurm memories I've created down the track. A lot of the videos are just day to day snippets of what I've been doing and some are are more informative. Some will have timelapse of adventures I do and some with touch on history of the land in which my deeds reside. Well, here is the playlist of what I've come up with already and I will continue to release more and more as I really like doing them. M

    In all likely hood it wouldn't help the sellers because most of the time, most of the potential buyers would not look at it due to be being sick of seeing constant streams of stuff they have absolutely no interest in fly by. It also wouldn't really help the buyers because sellers will not always be watching that channel on the off chance someone posts a WTB for the thing they happen to be selling. All trade channels I've seen in any other game ends up like this. The only people it might help a bit are those who have no interest in seeing any WTB or WTS messages at all, and compared to most games, there are actually very few in Wurm so it's not much of a loss to just /ignore the 4 or 5 people who do do it the most Oh, and you would end up with a constant stream of the same messages over and over again in rapid succession because there's no way any chat mod will sit and stare at the channel to moderate how frequently anyone sends the messages

    Think this was done some time ago by DM as shown above, aside from adding some never decided on, not sure the purpose of this besides adding more confusion to already named features.

    "The miner on staff will be providing quite alot of iron - only iron is planned," BP and anyone else thinking of hosting, some folks always seem to want to do some jewellery work at the impalongs ive attended, would suggest some silver or gold might be a good idea, or at least line up a source for when people ask for it

    Hello, theres still fps problem with GLSL since the 1.1 patch. There is something wrong with the GLSL. If I set GLSL on Core I get 10fps and no lighting effect on objects that are around fire. If I set GLSL to Disabled I get normal 30fps and I can see the flickering lights from fires on objects. But I cannot see reflections on water. This is clearly a bug from Wurm 1.1 that has not yet been fixed. With GLSL enabled. I cannot use shadows without suffering from poor fps (below 15fps). If I disable shadows my fps never drop below 30 even when looking at the water and its reflections. With GLSL disabled. No reflections, I can enable full settings, full shadows and the rest and stay at 30 fps. For some reason GLSL cause fps problem with shadows which makes them mutually exclusive. Will you please make reflections unrelated to GLSL so I can play with both reflections and shadows. I run win7 64-bit with latest java. I have ati radeon 6950 and fx-8120 amd processor.

    Now that I got the entry out of the way, I'd like to take a moment to voice my opinion on the vote being pure deli.. I honestly don't agree with it. Even though deli won the server vote, I would like to insist that we include other servers on the list to be at least eligible to vote for. I know Tekada worked extremely hard; I know Chulirac worked extremely hard. I know this, because I worked on a potential impalong deed too. I believe that all three of us deserve a fighting chance, all the way to the end.

    Why not a magic turn a rock shard into a brick button then? Because I can't really think of a reason you need to insta-trash shards.

    Really nice idea, Aum! If you're looking for some more idea about what you can do on the impalong, in terms of contests / events, here is one event I really enjoyed how it was organized: http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/80259-celebration-summer-festivalimaplong-8th-of-june-onwards-wurmstock-2013/ One other thing other than imps and contests, I would really love to see would be a community project, which would "force" us to actually work together towards a common goal, but also stand on as a living memory of the Impalong. Dunno maybe raise a small island in the water, just enough to build a Collosus on it and have everyone help with building mats, attaching, etc and have it raised from scratch to complete during Impalong. You could eventually just add a new one on every edition. What do you think? Cheers, Alex

    rolf, if you want to clean up the database more, why don't you also allow 1000 or more items in the trash bin? At least on my deed, the meals etc. would not be laying around by the thousands if i could trash bin them. But it's too much a pain to load 100 only and wait to decay just so you can load 100 more later so they just sit in piles on the ground to decay naturally.

    Red, don't worry. You said it yourself, remember? Kratos is invulnerable. Also, I think your idea is a great one. Building deeds on pvp servers is great fun and can show how groups of players can make something really cool to control areas of the map and to defend locations/items.

    Surely this is a good reason as to why we do need a trailer with more emphasis on PVP? If there's an area with lots of room for expansion (the PVP servers), we should really be working on it.

    Sure cause having to use the forums for trading is sooo immersive. Its borderline hypocrisy to shoot down in-game bulleting boards with saying you have forums in one line, the worry about immersion on the next. I for one think that you could even relate both, and have a building on the starter towns with Auctioneer NPCs that would allow you to sell stuff even to other servers, and Bulletin boards for job requests. It would be more immersive than using the forums for that.

    So again PVE looses out to the huge minority of PVP whiners who thought it too hard (since they couldnt terraform) to break into a dirt walled fortress, (tho I can terraform a tree tile just fine, idk why others cant). Split the freaking code already instead of constantly taking away from pve!
