8 pointsWe've enabled two-factor authentication. Click your profile at the top, then Account Settings. On the left you will see Account Security. When you click, you will need to enter your password and then you will have the option to enable two-factor authentication via Google Authenticator. You will be prompted to scan a QR Code with the authenticator app and input a code from the app to finish the setup. Note: The forums do not always ask for this code on login. It does it in suspicious situations to help safeguard your account.

6 pointsYes! It's in the works with a new account management system. I don't have more details to give on it yet. Mostly because @Retrograde would hunt me down if I stole his spotlight.

3 pointsThis Independence Day, for those of you that are American like I am, please read this and take time to think about what I am about to say. It seems that 'traditionally' people go out and buy fireworks and firecrackers for this time of year and enjoy setting them off in their driveways or back yards during the week leading up to and a couple weeks after the 4th of July. I don't want to put a damper on your fun, I used to be the same way growing up. However, before you set off those fireworks/firecrackers in your yard this year, please stop to think of those neighbors that might be combat veterans. Most won't say a word about this, but speaking from personal experience hearing people light explosive things near your house is nerve wracking and will likely send those veterans either into hiding for a few weeks or just simply make their lives hell for those few weeks. I myself am a combat veteran and I dread this 3 week period every year. I understand that everyone wants to enjoy themselves and celebrate the holiday, but if you are willing, please go to a park or something and enjoy yourselves there; maybe have a barbecue as well. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and enjoy your holiday.

2 pointsI've wondered this a while and figured....well i wonder how many others have looked at the code and realised how odd this is. In the WU code and almost certainly the same in WO. Rare chances are as follows on an improving roll (i won't go into how uncommon those are here it's not my point): Rare 1/5 Supreme 1/25 Fantastic 1/9700 WHAT!? Fantastic should be super rare, but the chance is insane for what they do, they're marginally better than supreme for that crazy crazy small chance. Am i the only one who thinks 9700 is extreme?

2 pointsWe have the Goblin Gladiator on a strict diet and rigorous work out routine, to get ready for the up coming "Goblin vs P&R" bout. ETA is this weekend and specific times will be posted later today. Please see your bookies in Las Vegas for details on the betting odds. This show is rated M for Mature audiences only, do to the violence and extreme chance of death. UTC or GMT time is 6pm. Not sure why I am doing this, but I've added a nice mailbox for emergencies (oh sh-t, I forgot my sword!). Couple other little conveniences, like a huge pile of corpses, for any of those aspiring chefs that are up to the task, but bring your own pans! Ideal location to come park your alts: Q 24. Nice stone slab docking area and a large sign posted. Slab is about 60-65 tiles away from the Goblin. Take the sandstone path North to the fight.

2 pointsAngry at me personal goal to make a fantastic i searched up this old thread and was saddened further when i realised i never did get an answer as to why in the heck fantastic is near enough to a 1/10000 chance o.o Feel my grumpy thread necroing. That progression scale just screams "i was gonna make it 1/100 but then woops". Maybe he wanted 1/1000...maybe...but 10,000!?

2 pointsGoing off topic into a serious issue that I don't consider drama but I realize a lot of people view it that way so please stay constructive with your responses. This issue has plagued Wurm for many years and probably will continue to spread like a disease. Were talking about Valrei rarity and the enormous prices for tomes and dragon hide/scale drops being controlled. Please fix uniques! Stop allowing less than 1% of the player base kill them all and profit from Valrei and dragon scale/hide drops. It personally makes me ill every time I see it, they don't even invite people for blood, most of them just want to be a arch mage or make some money! I want this game to have more community interaction. Now you say, well how do you fix this? Make Valrei Tome Pages a 100% drop item that works similar to scale/hide, combine them and make the book you want. This would make every hunt open, they would also get more arch mages out of it as well. (I don't understand why they even care, none of them actually pvp) I might of stole this from a suggestion, it was a good one though! You know what this would also do Devs? Make people feel more comfortable about going into PvP because they have the tool set that they think is required to "be good." Before you even say, go hunt your own you scrub! I'm probably as good or stronger than half of these people on that list below me just saying! I'm not into cliques either. I also try to hunt my own but it literally just spawned and was herded and killed. If I ever find one it would be public. Saturday 24th it spawned on indy [08:09:02] Rumours of The venerable kyklops are starting to spread. Killed less than 4 days later. When you do things like this for the 200th+ private kill, dragon squad, it paints you in a bad spotlight, it calls for a change. I wish I could say this community was the best but it isn't because of toxic systems in place that are ignored. The fact is this system is trash, I will speak my mind about it. Stop letting people take advantage of it. Seriously. Many amazing suggestions have been given, they all get ignored. Please just fix it already, everyone is to scared to voice there opinions usually. I'm a logical person and I see some shady business that is becoming a trend to hard to ignore!

1 pointStop and wave to every new player you meet, because you don't know who may be lonely and dying for someone to talk to. Just over this past week I've befriended two players who confided that they had no one to talk to or keep them company in-game. They were surprised and overjoyed when I waved to them first and then even engaged with them. One is a disabled player, for example. On a server that's fairly populous. Not sure if every MMO out there has this problem. My gut says "no".

1 pointSo I've been exploring... I've been wandering the forums, I've seen a few signatures of people honoring their fallen friends and then I thought of this suggestion and I think it should be a part of Wurm and it's history. We have all heard and seen some hidden easter eggs in other video games where they honor their fallen gamers and I know Wurm has had it's few fallen great ones too. My suggestion is basically a grave site, managed by CA/GM etc where one can put in a request for those in our community that have fallen in real life... and that they feel they should be remembered. With a note available for other players to read a little about what made that person so great. Edit: After some thought, I realized how hard it could be to know exactly if somebody has passed away without being very close to them, so I'd like to propose another option, Just like I stated above, a designated area protected and managed by a CA/GM, to highlight those we believe had a big impact in our Wurm community that have now retired the game with or without notice, with the requirements set for those that have not logged in, in a year or more.

1 pointHi Everyone, We will be taking the forums down for an update and configuration change to address some performance issues you have all been experiencing. The downtime will occur at midnight server time on the 29th of June (00:00 UTC+1). Additionally, we identified a potential security issue and as such will be performing some security changes. All accounts will have a forced password reset after the update, and we will be enabling HTTPS for the entire forum. Password security is very important, and always make sure to change your passwords regularly and do not use them across multiple websites or have the same password as your in-game account. We also advise taking the time to change in-game passwords to any accounts shared with other people to maintain good security practices. We expect this downtime to be only a short period and will provide an in-game alert when they are back up. Regards, The Wurm team.

1 pointI will be in IRC tonight to try and answer questions. If anyone is having issues, catch me there and I'll compile a list of those with permanent failures. I know I got 2 people resolved last night, but failed to help Wulfmaer. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I will be on sometime around 0400 GMT. Feel free to pm me in game or through IRC and I'll do my best to help. You can find a list of my active Characters on my profile page.

1 pointProbably worth point out for those using one of the other desktop authenticator apps, there is a link on the page with QR Code that will give you the details that you need to enter into the authenticator app to get things setup.
-
1 pointA thank you to Keenan, for spotting that my password reset had failed permanently and getting me the link I needed. It is also good to have 2 factor authentication. There is a link on the page by the QR code which will give you the code to type into the authenticator app to get things setup.

1 pointMayor of village must go to token and use option available on it (it was called "show deed plan" or something very similar).
-
1 pointI find deliveries that don't require the bulk of a boat far easier on Indy via cart, and my cart goes faster. If you don't care about the protections or the deed marker system, the old method of road building still works just fine.

1 pointThere was no concrete intrusion. Essentially we had planned to move the forums to forced https to begin with, and with http being easy to scrape data from while on insecure networks, I was going to recommend password changes anyway. We decided to enforce the password reset after a few insecure settings were found, though an inspection of the logs showed no intrusions. The main problem with sharing passwords between sites is that any site you share it on could potentially be compromised. A lot of sites use popular software suites, like Drupal, Wordpress, or even these forums here. Any of these software suites could be affected by a zero-day exploit, which opens up a window for security risk. You mitigate the risk to yourself by using a different password per site, and in our case, a different password for forums and your in-game accounts. I've probably sounded rather dark and scary over the last few days, but you only need to scan the news to understand how important cyber security is and how quickly even the biggest of giants can find themselves in a bad situation. I mean just a few months ago Cloudflare was found to be leaking HTTPS data from their edge routers, which was then indexed by search engines. So it's not just the software the site runs, but anything else in the infrastructure. In that case there was a very small window where you could actually find people's login credentials that should've been encrypted by HTTPS popping up in search engine results. I hope this better explains things.

1 pointDon't drag me into your dragon drama, Niki. Your history with Necroe is worth it's own thread, and by your own OP doesn't belong here.
-
1 pointthx [17:48:30] The items silently disappear from the spirit castle. You expect them to arrive in less than ten minutes.
-
1 pointA lot of these people seem to ignore the fact that this is about the elite groups that DON"T invite anybody besides their own crew that contribute to the problem. This is not about getting invited, as that would not solve the problem for everyone...
-
1 pointThis has always bothered me, and if anybody has read some of my suggestions you know my stance on this. I feel that the elite 1% have taken control of the uniques, with a few of them being public when somebody outside of their little club finds them. It's truly disappointing that Code Club has allowed this to turn into what it is, with no concern of how it affects the rest of the population. I understand if you sow you reap but god dang these guys have single-handedly manipulated the market, dragon armor should not cost as much as it does, the only reason it's so expensive is that there are a few hiding the hides long enough for the price to go even higher. I think this strongly needs interference from the devs to address this. This is freedom, this kind of greediness should not be allowed. IMO Uniques need to be like rift, where everybody gets to participate regardless of server or social status.

1 pointAssuming you are stating that they would drop as the scale/blood does currently, EG Directly into the inventory of participants within local? I would agree that it would help a bit, I still feel as though it wouldn't fully mitigate the problem however. I'm not much of a metagamer myself but I can still see how that system could be gotten around/used/abused.

1 pointDragon collar bridge will be done today, connecting the deed to the main highway \o/
-
1 pointyeah it doesn't protect anything, no way to imp it back up either. it really should be immune to damage

1 pointAyuna, we can not be but what we are by nature. Some (*most* probably) are very gregarious and enjoy human interaction. Others prefer various degrees of alone time to refresh their need to then interact with others. Wurm offers many opportunities to get to know other people but not everyone has the same desires of that depth. Your admonition here is a nice idea but just take what I said into consideration. Although I enjoy interacting with others at times and will casually treat most all with courtesy, my general preference would be to spend most time focusing upon what I am doing rather than chatting away distractedly. Yet maybe the offhand o/ has more impact than I imagine. Happy Trails =Ayes=
-
1 pointTbh, if you enjoy infiltrating enemy deeds only to steal their stuff because you're too coward to take it by force, I don't really want to pvp with you anyway.
-
1 pointI could take the time to write out a long detailed reply to this detailing what was wrong, and why I did what I did, but after reading a bunch of messages in email and forum and this OP and the above comments it feels to me like the majority of people who care about this situation understand what the problem is and what I was getting at. At least I do hope that is the case.
-
1 pointMaking a character explicitly to join a kingdom on Chaos and to steal their stuff once you've gained their trust should never be allowed. It will ruin the game for new, legit people, and will inevitably make people quit due to the fact you can't do anything once the items have been brought to freedom. That and gaining the trust of people in order to gain their passwords to characters to steal everything they own should never be accepted.

-
1 pointIf you want espionage (and most abuses) to stop then delete alts and ban the ability to make them. Yup, espionage stays.
-
1 pointIt would also be great to use as load/unload areas in harbours (not needing to allow load, pickup etc on whole deed). These tiles could have a special outline colour when hovered over by the mouse for easier management by deed owners/officials
-
1 pointNot sure, made a fantastic rock shard once, and dozens of supreme rockshards/ores/logs, maybe the odd supreme plank or peg, but tonight my first true supreme item!
