    Would be nice if the trade channel hade suffix for server. Like the help channel has - Jukkken(Rel) or Evening(Pri), Johndoe(Xan) etc. That way one would know where the seller/buyer is trading from. No use replying to a WTS Horses if you're on another server etc.

    I suspect eventually Rolf will want the game to support placing items on tables, etc. so the code for this suggestion could be re-used. Instead of planting a lamp on the ground and doing the whole pushing/pulling/angling bit to get it to just the exact, perfect spot, I suggest right clicking on a lamp to plant, left click plant would show the lamp (or a semi-transparent version) that could be positioned with the mouse on the tile the players stands on to place it in the exact spot the player wants it. The middle mouse wheel could be used to rotate the lamp, the left mouse for placement, and the right mouse to cancel the action.

    I dont understand Reserves in the first place. Why are you putting up an item with a minimum bid BELOW what you want to sell it for? Whats the point of bidding below the reserve? You should just make the minimum bid, what your reserve is.

    This is the seventh in the series and is to do with which has priority deed, building or door. And Includes the Door Permissions, which is what I will start with. Door Permissions Currently none. Proposed When managing a building, you can bring up a list of all doors in that building. List will show/allow: Door name - name given to the door, blank initiallyDoor type - e.g. "Wooden double door" What level its on - for multi-story buildings. 0 = ground floor. If it has a lock - Cannot be managed if it does not have a lock. If its locked - Just an indication if the door it locked. If being controlled by building. - Default for doors is that they are controlled by the building. ​The list will allow selection of doors that have a lock so you can manage that door. Available permissions on each door(per person/group) are.. "Manage Item" - Allows management of the door. Removed as will be using the building "Manage Item" permissions."Pass Door" - Allows passing through this door if its locked. "Set Rent" - Allows setting of the rent on this door. Removed as cant tell what is a room easilly, or if anyone has logged off in it. "Deny All" - Excludes the Group/Player from passing this door if its locked.. Note You cannot deny the owner of the building. "Controlled By Building" flag This flag defaults to being ticked when a door is added. if set then door permissions are ignored and the building permission "May Enter" is used in lieu of the door permissions "Pass Door". Can rename or manage permissions for a door by r-clicking if have the appropriate permission (and it has a lock).. When converting to the new permissions system, the "Controlled By Building" flag will be set on all doors. Priority deed, building or door Door Permissions are only valid if the "Controlled By Building" is not ticked. Building Permissions are always used once the ground floor is complete. Deed Permissions are used when not in a finished building. Assuming on a deed... there is one exception... Following planning a building ("Plan Building" deed permission), Once the plan is finalized (also "Plan Building" deed permission), Then anyone with building permissions to "Modify Building" can build walls even if the ground floor is not complete. But also anyone with the "Build" deed permission can help with the ground floor walls.

    Ok, another angle, how about I build a modern "wardeed " on test, link it to a twitter that a handful of people (about 2) from each timezone that we generally divide playtimes into, Australia , American and European and let the devs try disband it. Once completed the defenders will be obliged to carry out repairs with manually sourced materials while the devs can spawn stuff. Let's see if we can't flesh out this angle further

    "Hidden Reserve" Auctions I'd consider a bid but lacking a timer and adding a hidden reserve really doesn't help.

    Special setting for mayors to set an amount to add to upkeep from your bank Account automatically when your deed has less than 24 hours left before it falls. it adds the amount you happen to set it at in the event of disbandment. If there is no funds available for the auto upkeep emergency fund the deed then disbands.

    I would fight ONLY when you have a very good retreat strategy (there is a guard tower or templar nearby you can run to easily even if you are crippled, to kill the creature if it is winning. Or run stuff back to your house so you can jump into the house and heal periodically during the fight, then jump back outside to continue the fight.) If you are farther out where you do not have a good PLAN B, there is no shame in simply running away for now. Or at least try to run it to a guard then fight it alongside the guard. I tend to wear cloth, it is less armor but I can run away better. I do this even on my characters with 70 FS, as combat is not my favorite part of the game and I don't mind avoiding it. If you wear heavy armor you often have no choice but fighting since running away is much harder. Also if you join some sort of newbie training academy village, they will sometimes arrange little wilderness hunts where all the newbs go out in a killmob together with an armed escort to kill things. It's less boring than whacking at a stupid practice doll, and less XP per kill than a solo hunt but you can do a lot more kills since you are usually not in serious danger. It also gives you a chance to work on skills like Carpentry, Blacksmithing, Farming, Cooking etc and get them up close to 20 before you head out into the wilderness on your own, which makes survival a lot easier all around. * edit - oops I know see the forum account is from 2010, so this is probably TOO newbie of advice, please accept apologies if this sounded too basic....

    "This is not a discussion, you PM me and I will tell you the price" was what you had written in bold though you deleted and changed your tune now. Why force people to PM you for a price and not just state it for everyone to see? Just looks dodgy. If someone decides not to sell something that's their choice IMO

    The ability to stack your rafts ( much like slabs ) rafts should be able to make a pile or stack. Or can we have special container to put rafts in? I have over 80 rafts scattered a around my place no room in board etc. Does anyone else wish there was a better way to store your rafts?

    I had a lovely time exploring cele for the past few days, quite good hunting there. i befriended a champ wolf i named webba who died valiantly by my side fighting a champ crocodile, i tasted many crabs, and found the now rare species of unicorn that once wondered the land as a plague I searched the whole map.. only to find my treasure in the last inch. the goblin crown! i tried bartering with the goblin wearing this crown but he would not budge, i challenged him to a game of thumb wars but his hands were to quick. i begged him for the crown and threatened him, offered him all my jam, but he said he had just gotten it and its really shiny and he would only give it up over his dead body! and so that got me thinking.. what if he accidentally fell on 20 or so of our swords this next Tuesday ? EVENT OVER, THANKS TO ALL FOR JOINING!! Time: TUESDAY AT NOON PST Meeting at: Tap dance, or The "accident" zone , a little deed called Labyrinth you can find by following this map Loot: Bone and skull will be rolled for signups, blood is mining potion. Signup: Sign up as a fighter or if you need the Fearless title please post. Fighters: 70 fight skill + 70ql 2handed weapon + 40 2handed weapon skill.

    I would like to make everyone aware that it is a long way to get to this dragon. Leave in-time and calculate some extra time for getting lost on this huge server or having a bad wind. Do not expect we are going to wait 2 hours because of such things... If you want to make this long trip come prepared please. I have heard rumours there might be a canal on the north side, but i have no proof/facts it does actually exist. So expect that you'll have to make a long cartride to get to this location and there might be many off-roading and monsters in your way.

    Bridges are the key feature for the next DeedPlanner version, I added (approximate) checklist of progress on Trello and will focus just on them until they will be finished. I cannot give any ETA yet, but I will try to finish them before start of new academic year (1st October). After bridges and export of in-game terrain releases, DeedPlanner project goals will be finally accomplished after about 2,5 years of work, but this doesn't mean that there are no more things to do - future focus will be on making edition easier/more intuitive, improving graphics and optimization.

    Niki: "It looks like a cultural differences because wurm consists of many people from around the globe and not everyone approves of profiteering." Profiteering - make or seek to make an excessive or unfair profit, especially illegally or in a black market. Niki, I think you are actually on point for once. Most normal individuals (with a conscience) do not agree with, or participate in MMO profiteering/swindling. After all, this is a game, not a career. Niki: "Not sure why these players do this and it's always a group of players, take a look at my supreme glimmersteel thread for data. It's a toss up of jealously and arrogance for the most part. While not having a set price for my weapon I was asked for a price by a epic player seconds later my thread turns into a battle between epic and freedom." http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/129957-close-thread/ Jealousy and arrogance! 5-6 gold! LMAO girl!! Divide that by 5 and I think you will have your value. It is supreme, not fantastic. Niki: "Sebcoe's reserves were probably 30s each on both the shield and the sword which history shows that's a fair price I would of bidded higher on the shield but I let Mith have it..." You let Mith have it? Lol. You just backed off because you knew that it would be a struggle to try to resell it next week for 2-3 gold!

    An idea that just struck me Take 20kg of stone (or marble!) and use it on a <creature> corpse, pick your option. Either a corpse statue (models the unbutchered corpse) or a creature statue (models the creature) and size ((pocket (can be carried around!), small, medium, large (full sized). Gives "incomplete <creature/corpse statue>", variable amounts of material needed to complete each one. Once complete looks just like the mob in question on a pedestal. Nice, simple, easy to implement, something that would add a lot of fun to the game and give another use for corpses! Also makes unique corpses more fun.

    i had GL and freedom toggling keybound that no longer works due to the profile settings options. i think it would of been better to set profile as default on or off at login and still allow toggling through commands so keybinds werent lost

    Devily I tweaked your plan a little and came up with this http://pastebin.com/bUSbWuPm It's just what I want as an exterior look you've won 6s of the 10s prize pool congratulations As it was missing a suitable palace the remaining 4s is still up for grabs to anyone who can fill in the blank patch with a suitable building (packed dirt tiles) .. the palace I'm looking for will be visible from outside the castle walls, complex (externally) and beautiful (externally)

    i think it would be interesting if all epic kingdoms did something like this. On behalf of Valhalla's Descendants (VD) I will extend the same offer with almost the same terms. Only difference is that instead of joining HOTS you join VD. Contact me if interested.

    See.. the thing is here.. other than hidden reserve. Is when people decide to put no price at all in the OP and tell people to PM them for the price and how its going. How are people supposed to know if that true? I can tell one person 60s and the other 80s, cause they don't actually know. Hidden Reserve is as good as a Price Check. Still tho, 5-6 Gold? Maybe if it was Fantastic, Niki. And if it was a bugged one with LT and another Damage spell. Also, I do play on Freedom, sooo...

    Well then, I hope you get reported as trolling and banned from the forums. I'm also certain people will remember such action and not deal with anyone who would do this again. Heck, I can't think of anything more "disruptive" to an auction than repeatedly derailing them with no intention of actually purchasing anything. There used to be actual rules against not honoring a trade on freedom, but I doubt you could apply them to the forums, but you would still face other sanctions. Reputation goes a long way when buying or selling something. If a seller has a good reason not to honor an auction, I don't mind them stating that, If they are going to do so. However they need a better reason than "reserve not met" unless we can see that the actual reserve they recorded was in fact, not met. Many players talk about trying to reform the "rules", myself included but perhaps what really should be done is to work with the system we have. Improving auctions, by giveing the players actual tools they can use on the forums would go a long way. I've seen it done before, and for games with a fraction of the population we have to work with. Measuring reputation should be one way to prevent abuse, making some auctions unable to be bid upon unless you have a certain reputation as a buyer. Bidding anonymously should still be fine, many of those same tools let players do that, and after the seller verifys that the transaction is complete the reputation is still updated. That way some of the other silly things that go on in the auctions, can be avoided, and players that trade outside the auction house can also see past reputations. Wurm has come a long way since I've first picked up the game in 2010, but I've seen only slow changes to the forums over the years despite many overhauls they have had. This is quite disappointing since, any layman can see just how essential the forums are to in-game enjoyment. They are the lynchpin that holds the community together and should be treated as such.

    Pattern-welding does not make a blade more durable. Wootz/crucible steel falls under the same myth as well about being more durable. All pattern-welding allows you to do, apart from looking pretty when acid etched(which is why modern steel uses nickel alloy along with a plain high carbon), is make the steel more homogeneous in its carbon content and impurities(usually nickel for the modern day). I always made the assumption we were pattern-welding in the game. We already get multiple small weight pieces of steel, heat them to welding temp, and combine them to produce the weight of blade we want. So we are already going thru the steps of pattern-welding in game. I really believe you are wanting differentially hardened steel for your increased durability of the blade edge. It is what Japanese bladesmiths are famous for doing very well. Which is were your Katana's hamon line comes from. You let one area of the steel cool more quickly than another(the blade edge in this case) to up its hardness while still allowing the spine to be softer and flex. This process was typically done with clay. It would be a nice skill(differential hardening) to add to metallurgy IMO. You could get a blade before adding a handle, add some clay, heat to working temp and quench the blade to create a hardened (blade of your choice). You have a chance on quenching to just create scrap from the blade. The hardened blade could just take less damage from use like oak wood or something. It would also let metallurgist have another set of actions besides just simple creation of alloys. It would also be just an easy add for the developers. You could just add a hardened version of metals with the reduced damaged from use tag. So there would be Steel longsword and hardened steel longsword etc etc. IF you want your fancy design for pure aesthetics. You could add a skill to make acid for the natural substances skill. They then take a blade and acid etch it to become an acid etched blade. It could give the blade a design OR just make it darker/lighter/glow different colors etc etc.

    With all of the changes to stuff coming up, and some new good things we just got, I thought I'd make a request about default settings. Especially for newbies, I think it would be good if the default settings for Target Window to be set ON, for villagers and alliance members to loot your corpse to be OFF, for Enable PM alert sounds to be ON, and for profile enabling Cross-Kingdoms and Cross-Servers chat to be ON. These are things that new people don't even know they need to make a decision about, and they are very helpful to be set in the safest and most useful way.

    Some fine stuff here. If you want to check out this band a bit, check the two "Keeper Of The Seven Keys" albums on Spofity or somewhere. The other albums are quite a bit different. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blFB0i3xcxA Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys

    I appreciate that we needed a (better) way to preserve one's preference for kingdom and global (and now trade) chats, but IMO, this wasn't it. As Lordterrabyte suggested, please bring back the slash commands for toggling the channels. Ideally, have them update the Profile preference as well as current status of the channel.

No idea why the "creative mode" doesn't work with help ** actrually this old 2009 forum post seems to insist it is lowercase only so I dunno when it really changed.... There is also a 2013 Steam forum discussion where they remind people calling guards is lowercase only. That's zero help in determing why you cannot use "help" to start a verbose sentence anymore

    Welcome Brimble As I recall, there are a few spots on the forum with some good beginner info, this thread is one of them. In the real early stages I really got a lot out of the wurmpedia.com site. Right from the home page theee aee some starrer guides that were very helpful. I am not at my regular system so don't have my bookmarks but try searching skill builder for a good basic guide of how to raise skills, 'containers' for info on inventory and storage, and of course just the name of any skill you are interested in. I believe the newbie light is 24 hours game time like the couple other bonuses you have like food from the starter areas and reduced agro by mobs. Your tent can be used and picked up as many times as you want. It does take damage with time when it is down and I don't believe it can be repaired or improved. There are craftable replacements for it with enough rope and maybe tailoring skills. Remember to keep your tools repaired until you are ready to move on to better ones No problem on the questions, ask away! I am sure you will get lots of offers of help, if you are on the Xanadu server, I would be glad to have you join me on one of my deeds to get you off to a good start. I don't have any requirements other than have fun and respect others property. Rules are pretty much just resource management guidelines. You are welcome to stick close to the deed or just use it as a home base for exploring. I have a few other villagers who are all fairly new. In any case, welcome to Wurm, I hope you will find this game to be as interesting and entertaining as many of us have. As you have probably noticed already, the skill and activity list is amazingly complete so there is something for everyone. You will find things move a little slow at first due to low skills but it doesn't take long to cut times down quite a bit with better tools and higher skills

    Maybe belled cows moo and non-belled are quiet, but in any case the distance the sound carries is somewhat limited (like, 10 tiles away) So as you near the cow pasture you hear them, but the neighbors don't hear them 80 tiles on the opposite side of local.
