Have a spell to do what? I can use a shaker orb to drop a mine tile but you can still mine through it. We're talking about locking yourself into a 1x1 tile room which is completely reinforced... the only way to get around it is to drop a deed but if its already on a deed your completely screwd. Do you even read the previous posts or just read the latest? Astonished. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Its outstanding how players think, being able to lock pretty much anything you want (animals, weapons, artifacts, tools) into a impenetrable room is a viable mechanism of the game and shouldn't be changed. Just because that's how reinforced mines work now, doesn't mean that's how they should work. It's a shame so many players will derail and slate a suggestion purely on the basis of who wrote it. Look into the bigger picture and stop being so narrow minded...

Last night JK and BL worked together to help set up Bashur's MR deed. You know what this means? Bashur has united all of the kingdoms. The war is over. Wurm shall finally know peace. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vo9AH4vG2wA&feature=youtu.be&t=15

Horses/critters just need to be saved when you mount or disembark and when you stop leading them. My 2bits anyway.

Hi I'm Eskor, I'm the Chancellor of Mol Rehan, but I'm going to abdicate.

Oh my.... this whole thing is just messed up. If I am the creator of this game I would wonder if the only way to grow the game is by banning the current playerbase... glad I am not.

I caught a champion troll trying to crawl out of my window. Hmm

really nice to think about the new player and cater to them, but a tiny boost in shortsword and medium wooden shield skill (the newbie starter pack) to new players would be much, much more useful than weaponless fighting skill. Hell, even make them a bit higher ql, the starter weapon and shield, if giving skill is unfair.

1 - Many CA's don't want the ability to mute and hiring people to CM is rather different to hiring people as a CA, that's why we differentiate from CA's and CM's. 2 - Ordering people to do something optional isn't really the way to motivate players either. The wiki etc. is mentioned plenty of times, and it's up to players how they wish to learn the game. If you get fed up with players asking the same simple questions, close the channel, it's why the CA's are there. 3 - Current chat rules are developed from Rolf's vision of how he wants the game chats run. The other problem with your suggestion here is that determining when these things are going on is highly subjective. When CM's were more 'active' we had SO many complaints about biased moderating, miss-interpretation of the rules etc etc. We get about 2 to 5% of the complaints we used to get as far as I'm aware these days since the moderation system was overhauled and a lot of work was done to bring the moderators on to the same page. 4 - We have standards for this, but it does rely on a CM being online. It's also what the /ignore function is for - you can read up on that in the wiki

It's quite sad the lengths that some people will go to in order to stop this game growing. I'm guessing they like having the same groups of people PvP'ing week in and week out?

if you are doing videos do not show the inside of villages unless you want to lose all your stuf

Some of you seem to think Bashurs account was unbanned. That did not happen. The account that was banned, Alexender, is still permabanned for macroing. We have no pardon with tainted accounts and we don't handle those judgements differently based on fame or money, for which we are proud. We pardon the IP address as a standard procedure after a while because otherwise one person can block a whole instution or organization from playing which is not fair. Playing from another IP address is also easy using one of the plentiful proxy services out there. A few years ago we used to hunt the person behind the account. It was very resource demanding and also pointless because once you've lost an account or two you seem to get that we are serious and often start cooperating instead. It's pointless in other ways as well. Smart cheaters change IP and email anyways but the gullible, ignorant and often inexperienced players who one day decide to try out a macroing program (often because of a recommendation) would be hunted successfully while honestly and regretfully trying to get back to Wurm. On another side note we need to grow our customer base. Bashur bringing in people is superb for that which is why he receives a special welcome. We have welcomed storms from goons, 4chans, the PC gamer community before and many of you may be from those rushes. There are mechanics in place for dealing with griefing so you don't have to be scared about your deeds safety unless you become the aggressor. All other situations are warfare which is a part of Epic. So, I hope I've cleared a few things out and I wish you all the best in enjoying this moment in this sandbox world we call Wurm!

.. Sometimes i wonder and want to ask some ppl.. Were you born retarded or just recently became such.. Or some just lacks any attention irl and actual social skills that theirs only comfort can be found playing aggressive trolls to somehow compensate theirs tiny self esteem.. It's just.. I fail to understand large part of this community. Haters gonna hate. None cares about your negations with which You my dear trolls are suffocating this community. Ppl make mistakes, we all are just humans. Ppl do rage and say things they wouldnt had under different circumstances. It's called Human emotions. Guy just wants to play the game, have some fun, enjoy RP. So what if some of his fans are young age. So what if he's joking around about conquering the world lol. At least ppl are trying to have some Fun in this Game and live theirs (game) dream. Sure some might cause some mess, when its high number of new ppl joining rapidly. Just to many old grumpy metagamers here pushing away anything that can shake theirs little fragile world. (Oh noe, wut, tis crowd of new ppl joining in and takin ma dear space, i feel less importante noa) Somewhat like that.. I raise my hat to You Bashur for having nerves to go through all this, i would had rage quit by now On same note, wurm seriously do lack any advertisement out there, you wont find many, if any, ppl outside this community who have ever even heard of this game before.. Causing mess or not, i'm all for our population numbers growing!

Never sit with 5 hours then

Good idea, maybe when you PM someone it says they are offline but they will get the message when they login anyway?

What you must understand Bashur is that this community is pretty damned unforgiving, when it comes to threats, cheating and general griefing. This is a small community, and we all, for the most part at least, wish to just play the game how we choose to play, on the server cluster of our choice, whether that be PvP or PvE. As for depression, I know how that feels. I had a serious bout of depression a few years back. It's not easy to come out of, so well done there.

If support beams were removable how long before griefers would start removing them from our cave canals in the hopes of causing a cave in ?

You logged off, but like I said -- I think you should just play the game with your friends off stream/videos. Keep to yourself, don't work with others, make your own reputation and village/kingdom. You will probably enjoy that more than following someone else's guide or path. Maybe when you're more established, have a village, and going out and training, then you should make some videos. It's great to bring publicity to Wurm, but sometimes it just makes you a target and draws negative attention to yourself if you put your foot in your mouth or associate with the wrong person.

>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF7Hlgs8to0 I don't understand this community, at all. I paid $800 for a character that was very well skilled so I can help my friends who are coming in with building, setting up deeds, all that fun stuff. I asked for help, and only one person came to me to help, and that was Nosfirebird while everyone else was telling me to leave. So I started trusting him, and this happened. Literally right when I log in. The -only- person who knew where I was was him. $800 freaking dollars. Within minutes, killed, on the spot of log-in. I just don't understand how this is allowed? I could understand if it was done in game, but this is beyond messed up. I just.. I can't believe the amount of crap I've had to deal with since I've gotten back. My mind is blown. Completely. I was trying to meet my friend to convert to MR so we could start on our city, so I can lay out the plans.

Christ, what about playing the ###### game like everyone else. Seriously: depression, youtube career, I'm only human. This isn't minecraft. You aren't dealing with a horde of mouthbreathing teenagers. I've been playing for less than a month and one thing is already obvious. The community on this game is different from pretty much anything I've played so far (some similarities with Eve). And this kind of youdrama garbage isn't going to fit too well around here. Cut the dramaqueen attitude, cut the ###### about "LETS TAEK OVER EVRYTHNG", cut the cheating, stop leaving garbage in every single spot you try to settle. Then maybe people will leave you alone. Also, this is a general forum. Not your personal blog.

sheesh, this thread... this thread... THIS THREAD THIS THREAD

+1. I think it should be possible to mine it in 1000-2000 actions or so, preferably with a way to (partially) repair damage that is done to it

I actually work everyday, without a day off, for about 14 hours a day. I'm also in the middle of getting ready for conventions, traveling to Europe, then Canada, then I have to go to Florida, then Georgia to start the shoot of our movie Heart Land. Then I have to move to LA which will lead to even more work. I have to do sponsorships on top of ad rev campaigns. I hardly have any time off other then when I'm traveling and only when I'm in the middle of the moving part. I have to come out with content daily, edit that content, and upload that content within a certain time frame or I don't get paid. If you think it's so easy, I invite you to do one recording with me. You have a few hours after the recording to edit, render, and upload the video or it's completely null. If you're entertaining and engaging enough, you'll instantly grow a huge audience and then you can quit your "normal" job and have an oh so easy job like mine. Give me your skype, and we'll record tomorrow. I wake up at 6am everyday, I record at 8am. Make sure you're ready.

Spend some money on an advertising campaign.

Give us a break. I'm in the deed that protected you, AND YOU LIVESTREAMED THE INSIDES OF OUR DEED EVEN WHEN TOLD TO STOP. You play PVP games I assume and know that you DON'T LIVESTREAM BASES WITHOUT THE OWNERS CONSENT. Like really.. If you play pvp games and don't know not to LIVESTREAM bases... Ugh Sorry if I don't believe your pity party. Klaa, it's time for a worlds smallest violin GIF FORGOT TO ADD, YO JBERG, can we give bashur a warning too for discussing bans on the forum? Ty man

Will the change to weaponless make a difference though? Even at 80+ overall fighting and pretty good body stats, I wouldn't want to fight much of the wildlife without a weapon or armor. So how is 20 unarmed going to make much of a difference for a 1fs newbie?

Well if you do that and then use something like Keeko suggested in combination Specifically - the branding idea there - well lets just work with this a bit here - let me throw in a quick visual aid as well. Now for this to work youll need to do a few things here. 1st - Rework the branding mechanic to associate the brand with the character that does the branding and allow all animals to be branded.( essentially assign ownership. There are many ways to do this but for now Ill use this way.) 2nd - Add a list of branded animals specific to the character to the Trade screen 3rd - Add in a way for devs to manually start the retrieval tool for all players. Now what happens is this - Assuming a rollback and all kinds of animals are missing there are several issues. GM's cannot realistically go out and hunt all the animals that are missing. Saving all the locations frequently enough is too rough on server resources. Animals that are not saddled or hitched (or were not in the last x amount of time as there is no telling how far back any 1 rollback will go) will immediately run off in a random direction. Replacement of animals at last known location can be problematic for players if they are placed back in a fence or someplace that a player cannot get to. This is not a complete list but hits the highlights. I wont include solutions for prego animals as I do not know enough about the actual code behind this mechanic. So what could happen is as follows - Rollback happens, servers are down for x amount of time. Devs get servers up and running and start a program(we will call it Timer for purposes of this example) that picks a number from 1 to 60 and assigns it to each player as they log in. This is the number of minutes that they have to wait before they get access to the retrieval tool. Servers come back up, players start logging back in As soon as a player logs in they will get access to the Animal Retrieval Tool when Timer says so. So within one hour they will have access to it. At this point the Character will have ...lets say 24 hours of access to the tool, and it works as follows. A list of the animals you have branded shows up and you select one that's missing and hit the RETRIEVE button. The animal is instantly teleported to you. Now why the trade window thing....well no one buys branded animals so there needs to be a way to transfer that ownership. So you could select from the list in the trade window and drag an animals name in that window and during the trade the ownership is auto changed and the branding reflects the new owners name. The Timer program is there to ease the demand on server resources by spreading out the number of requests by the retrieval tool over x amount of time. In my example I use an hour...it could be any amount that is needed. this is completely off the cuff...so I know it has some big ass holes in it....but none the less Something like this should be able to work.

Hello Wurmians, lets share some progress! So far this week, the notification system is being tested and iterated. Our notifications are meant to be subtle and to the point, hints triggered in the game when you are performing/ trying to perform actions for the first time. Also when certain requirements are met like you become hungry or wounded. They will all be available from a notifications library in game for later reference. Decisions for the maps functionality. To begin with, we are setting the limitation of the number of different map annotations you can have to 50 of each type. And lastly some changes to skills and game fixes. The weaponless fighting/ unarmed skill will now be set to 20 by default for all new characters. A new fix for friends and support tabs so there is only one. It moves to/from event chat to its own window. This means that less memory is used. As there was a rush of new players, we found some previously unknown limitations on the server side which we could then address. Thats all for now!

Hey guys, CaptainSparklez here! I've decided to play this game after Bashur told me about it...pretty cool stuff! I hope to meet you guys out in Wurm!

50s, just let me drop a deed there fast haha C'mon, 1 house, mag altar..? You can do that like in 1h, lazy Dan!

No thanks, I like my cave to remain reinforced and not have some random derp come by and break it all up. Reinforcements work fine as it is, -1

Since i´m working on a on-deed cave dock leading to the coast trough an mostly off-deed 80 tiles x3 cave canal i have to give this a strong -1. Support beams is a feature that a lot of freedom player rely on, for either protecting on deed and off deed mines, besides my new project i have several mines and another 50x3 tunnel both on and off deed, where i used SB in confidence that the tunnels and mines will remain usables and impervious to outside penetration thank to carefull planing and using of a fair amount of SB, and now after so many years of this feature existing you find it flawled? Hell no, And i´m very sorry if it in someway disturb your play style, but making the SB removable will mess too much with Freedom play style, so unless devs provide a way to rework SB functionality on pvp servers only, then is working as intended, either avoid login off on mines to escape death or accept the consequences of a bad decision.

Most players will want to do the same things you like. They will want to build their own house, farm, craft, hunt, mine and have animals too so the more of that you can give them the happier they will be to stay and help out.

Very close. Your mind is on the right path. One only need look at the burned out dirt wall fortresses covering chaos to begin to think there must be a better way.

this looks good tbh

Im from the dwarf fortress rush.

After almost 3 months I finally made it (at the 4th attempt): My suggestion still stands, though!

Joined this group on my Freedom alt... amazing people and went out of their way to help me!

U are being trolled here threadmaker. The only non trolls here are the BL ppl, as usual.

Hi, I'm Gbelcik I steal your boats and kick your kids. KTHXBAI

Hi i'm alflacduck and i'm super helpful, we should totally team up.

Too bad there was no sound D:

hey Sparklez, I'm rosedragon. If you are real, you have met me before when we working together with ridgedog on Deep Space Turtle Race @ thevoxelbox. I made some of the easter eggs and also draw the villain. No longer playing minecraft now, and Empress of Horde of the Summoned on Chaos.

Well /t Awakening me in game if you're Mol-Rehan Epic, I can hook you up with some gear to get going, and personal tips how to PvP. I once almost won a 1v3 at HotA against BL.

To follow up on this I can vouch for this as I have done it and put myself in burn out on video games. I had support of fellow gamer buddies until their seasonal work kicked back in spring and then I became the sole producer of the videos coming out on the channel. I finally got burnt out of video games for a while and actually didn't really game much through the summer. I'm now just starting to get back in the mood to play certain games and looking forward to a few of my friends to get off seasonal work to help make more videos this winter. As for sponsorship I haven't been constant enough or gotten big enough to end up with it but what little money you make off Google's Adsense is not even enough to pay for the electricity you use to render the footage. Me and my friends made a video that got over 6000 views but only made about $6 from it. Most videos will pull in only $0.01 from the views I get in a day. I barely get by as is because no one is hiring disabled vets where I live because everything requires a degree, is construction, or doesn't pay enough for the cost of getting to work. I only make videos just to keep my resume fluffed up so it doesn't look like I sat on my butt doing nothing for that potential job in my local area. I'm glad Bashur got a chance to make it big to where he gets to make the choice of do I make videos for a living or do some other job. I make videos out of a sense of necessity. Just remember for every person that makes it big enough to make a living on youtube videos there is about 500 out there that are trying to make it big.

In exchange for making reinforcements destructible, I wouldn't mind increasing the logoff timer to one hour when there are enemies in local. That way people can't log off during PvP, yet people also can't reinforce all of their stuff into a mine as soon as things start going south. Everybody wins.

The economy sucks and if you don't have the money to get certified in anything or a degree then the only way your going places is through entrepreneurial efforts like what he is doing. Also the traditional 9-5 job stuff doesn't work for the people getting out of high school and college. It's a big joke because even degree holders are having a hard time finding work that will pay all the bills. You can mock him all you want but making even simple video game videos that people will want to watch takes a lot of effort. I can spend upwards to a few hours of work putting together a five minute video, that doesn't include render, upload time, or recording the needed material. Just recording the needed footage for the video can take many days in of itself. He making some money because he saw an opportunity and went for it. If your going to berate someone for being lazy making money then attack the CEO's of the international corporations, bankers, and politicians. Other wise your just making yourself part of the problem. And for the last part this isn't the place to post your grips you have about someones source of income. Take it to another board or better yet make youtube videos about your grips about this. Then you will see how hard it can be to make something people will actually want to watch.

Does it really matter if it's hard to code or not? Why should players care? really... It should just work or it becomes frustrating instead of fun. If a feature is too hard to implement it shouldn't be there in the first place, simple as that. If horse breeding and riding is too hard to get right in it's current form, devs need to rethink the whole feature and make something that works both technically and game play wise.

Here is our garden deed complete with giant garden Gnome.

Sea serpent are almost ready (needs some tweaks and then export)and shark are rigged but needs animations!
