    I can't find the correct words to express how hugely disappointed I am in the way these people have been treated. They are trusted respected and loved by many of the WURM community. Patient beyond my belief with people in the way they help others WURM has ripped out a huge section of our collective heart and soul by taking these from wurm.

    The harm is a loss of cohesive aesthetic. The harm can be explained by an example such as this one : What's the harm? People see gimmicky skins , costumes , cutesy stuff that totally ruin what's supposed to be a more realistic fantasy sandbox game and think "Oh...another one of those games. Yeah , pass." The real annoyance I have in this situation is people failing to see that there's a progression to this descent into a "fashion show game". It starts out with innocent stuff like teddy bears, snowmen skins, bucket heads, candy cane skins. then 50 skins later you get female characters sporting oversexualised breastplates with mini skirts and chainmail stockings for a reason. Part of any gaming experience is immersion. If you destroy immersion you kinda kill roughly 50% of the gameplay right there. You don't really feel like a blacksmith doing chores around the deed when you see someone as I described above riding past your forge and you realise you're just in another copy paste MMO that solely exists to sell skins now, gameplay and immersion be damned. This type of outcome doesn't happen overnight, the progression is slow, 1 skin a month, maybe another added with certain events such as halloween or xmas, then suddenly you see people wearing clown suits on high heels bashing trolls with a carnival hammer and it's no longer Wurm, it's just a typical cash grab skin selling korean / asian MMO. I really don't know how to articulate this better...the harm is real even if it's difficult to quantify. You don't need to be an arts major or hold a phd in graphic design to understand that consciously or subconsciously our brain does appreciate aesthetics and how things look and fit together. Do we really need to lose 100-200 players then ask why those players left? Even if on top of that there's no feedback mechanic to ask quitting players why they left, but I am gonna bet my bank account quite a few will be influenced by how wurm looks and "feels".

    I know it's a long shot but it would be awesome if Mayors could pay 1-2 gold for a "Title of land ownership" or something similar on the Freedom Clusters to allow them to Submit there own design for banners/tents/wagons Ect much in the way PMK's can, it would allow for much more creative freedom in game

    [23:20:05] A straight tool with a strong hard blade made for cutting stone. This is a supreme example of the item, with fine details and slick design. The stone chisel needs to be sharpened with a whetstone. [23:20:05] You can easily make out the signature of its maker, 'Sevenhavenz'. [23:20:05] Blessings of the Dark has been cast on it, so it will increase skill gained and speed with it when used. [102] IGN: Sevenhavenz Starting bid: 30 s Increment (minimum): 5s Reserve: Yes, 1g.

    1/1000 spawns as one of these rare variants instead (only done through natural random spawn, not "spread" spawn or cast induced spawn). When a flower is rolled as rare during a normal harvest, one of these is awarded instead with the appropriate rarity modifier. They look distinct from regular flowers (new textures). Why add them? Because they're something nice for people to look out for when exploring, and a nice surprise for players out picking who roll a rare. Yellow flowers -> Yellow Crysanthemum (https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthbenefitstimes.com%2F9%2Fgallery%2Fchrysanthemum%2FChrysanthemum-Yellow.jpg&f=1&nofb=1) Orange-red flowers -> Orange Lion's tail (https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fobovate.files.wordpress.com%2F2014%2F07%2Flionstailflwr2.jpg&f=1&nofb=1) Purple flowers -> Purple Monkshood (https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fferrebeekeeper.files.wordpress.com%2F2011%2F10%2Fmonkshood-aconitum-bicolor.jpg&f=1&nofb=1) White flowers -> White Lily (https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.ZRkmXIaGkTHBR9gJxXH6QwHaFS%26pid%3DApi&f=1) Blue flowers -> Bluebells (virginia) (https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsindianavisions.files.wordpress.com%2F2012%2F03%2Fvirginia-bluebell-2-2012.jpg&f=1&nofb=1) Greenish-yellow flowers -> Daylily (https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fs3.amazonaws.com%2Fcdn0.dutchbulbs.com%2Fimages%2F500%2F89644.jpg&f=1&nofb=1) White-dotted flowers -> White wolf (https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-FC21d__njJI%2FTV6g3s7m7pI%2FAAAAAAAAAOM%2F7osoN-hndS8%2Fs640%2FWijayakusuma%2Bflower.jpg&f=1&nofb=1)

    Realistic is a strong word.. when "wogic" slaps you in the face QUITE OFTEN and that never/rarely/ gets addressed. There are few convenience middle grounds where it's perfectly fine.. and it works in player's favor(think about drinking salty water and alternative to go build 2000 wells on shore to fix a thirst), but whenever wogic just beats the .. our of you and you can't report it as bug.. and it's fully qualified wogic content and as intended and wont be improved.. that's far more harmful.. I just learned to ignore it to not rage and lose nerves over it. Year of QoLs though... maybe we'll lose some good portion of daily wogic intake. I am not a fan of wurm's dog skin(somehow seems off compared to other creatures.. it's like we have mythical w/e kind of creatures.. even the wild cat is somewhat wild.. not a domestic purr which makes is ok vs the dog; snowman is totally off from other wurm art; candy canes were odd(for one.. they are only item of such goofy wacky theme...) * here I'd like to specify... everything holiday-themed for me is ######, it's great for the game and designers, as you can go completely nuts and do anything out of the normal rules, but that's totally off content once the season/holiday/ is over, and here is the problem I see.. why bother.. besides for the gain of the collective... decorating with the last holiday decorations.. will be great for next winters and xmas and new-year week/s, but I find them totally off content to see any other time of the year, yet.. since we're short on some decorations... players will be likely using these as premium rare content to show off with.. yikes; only way to solve it is.. to "mock" that .. and come up with more/better/ alternative.. and extend the art decorations.. so even biggest fans of these.. can just say hell-no, I'll decorate with this alternative.. and keep these season-themed items for their special time; we'll still laugh at decorations off-season.. but at least the use will be lower and lower(IMO) I could see immersion breaking bit.. one example is the outrage when devs replaced wolves with worg models on pve... wolves are quite ok... worgs.. are quite uglier.. and other bit was the lack of death animation, unsure if we had normal wolf dead body.. but alive it was a worg model.. and that wasn't halloween.. it was some patch making it work that way.. and seemed permanent and random decision. Immersion.. idk.. maybe some out there want to be in clown suits on high-heels and banging hot iron with toy-hammers to do blacksmithing, that's probably an option in cyberpunk, if not.. they are missing on a hype niche. Variety should be a thing imo, more places to explore than own world.. but maybe as timed events.. one week every 1-2 months or something seasonal. The game lacks any reason to gather up and play together, and one strong bit about wurm is finding players to interact with, you can only make so many nails, planks and bricks.. before you go back to scam-citizen or some other bloat. I barely play lately and find myself grinding random useless skill/s, not optimizing for gain or w/e.. just giving myself something to do while chatting ingame. Some skills and return from them makes no sense.. gathering skills and high skill works against you with rerolling action for ql outcomes.. ql 90 player can overall get better results than 99 skilled; got 99 stone cutting.. I can not make a single ql100 whetstone if I dont have imbue but 50 skilled player or less can do it 99.9999999% of the time.. ok... realistic.. bullsh.. mechanic imo.. that's where wogic and rewarding for skill just slaps you and reports for this exist... but unaddressed; rune-creation.. any priest/follower can do better than 99 skilled player for the skills involved... where QL of the rune material matters more than the player skill.. so what.. I'm a master this.. and the action falls in that skill, who cares.. lets use hyper low chance anyway and ignore all benefits from skill.. o k... wogic and planning/testing.. "good experience" right there. I can't care less if somebody plays like a clown or have disgustingly ugly color scheme for it's worn gear or decorations because I have 0 reason to travel to places, we have no mechanic to "force" you to visit or explore, you do that on your own, same with player interaction.. takes a sentence to PM somebody and say.. that's off/creepy/ugly or w/e.. freedom of speech, it's a bummer action.. but.. if it really bothers you.. you could share it always. monthly skin.. I think skins/"new items" just get too slowly into the game.. and mostly that's literally only the 4.5k/was it/ loyalty points skins... rarely new mechanic and actual new item. I find players to be annoyed way more from the fact they don't like this months skin.. and have to wait another month.. to maybe like and use next one.. and whole waiting is what they hate. If that is really so.. idk, not my job to figure what's happening, it's just an observation.. One other issue is.. old skins are never present to buy again, the game needs a way to return old skins.. maybe rotate or some other sketchy and annoying wogical, terrible for monetization and pointless from marketing point mechanic... The game in general keeps giving the vibe to be monetizing badly, where all it takes is new content to get people to unwrap their coin purses and throw coin at the monitors/or virtually swipe with paypal, etc/, just get old skins into a new, better shop. Probably doesn't take much to return old trader view and pop all possible skins or w/e kind of items.. maybe add search, or categories somehow, button, checkbox or w/e... based on needs.. and have a simple list of items, some hint to right click and PREVIEW... or button for preview of the item. SIMPLE THINGS... you want to see what you're buying... bonus time.. add coloring option so you could customize and play around with the item from the start, see something you like.. customize it.. and still buy the blank item.. but allow the players to see what they are buying and add the extra effort to provide convenience for the process, there must be a marketing law for all this. Old skins just need to return in some shop, which doesn't prevent possible return as loot from treasure chests or w/e other mechanics. Give players option to buy something with silver.. offer same item to be bought a bit cheaper(could be time limited thing or not at all) with direct cash(real life money, not silver) payment also, this directly adds new money into company's budget, while it doesn't add or remove any existing silver/gold; while using silver is great.. and the need for it, hinting further investment should always be advertised. I'm not talking about adding huge banner - you're not premium - buy this now, only xx.xx euro, huge, neon sign flashing on screen or to advertise new items in some intrusive way.. but lets say.. adding new skin or several into the game could be worth adding ingame mail or reusing helper system to get a message about such content, just change icon's color.. provide fun content that's worth noticing and checking and this wont be intrusive or hated; worst care HUD element could be disabled. One of first things which seemed like very promising parts of the game for me was the helper UI.. hinting about hunger/thirst/stealing/drowning.. things no other 'friend' will share with you from the very start. tl;dr, there's no tldr

    Totally agree. Guys please stop adding those ridiculous cosmetics or the game will look like some asian MMO like Aion.

    For me the bucket helm is at least something that is within the boundaries of the game's setting - teddy bear backpack, candy cane sword and such items should have really been a temporary prank only. Some of the PMK designs like HLL are also off from the setting as the graphics are too fine-detailed and brightly coloured to be in line with the age, setting and general assumed possibilities inworld.

    Hello. How are you all doing ? All good I hope, despite all this ###### we're in. Some of you out there will probably remember me . I'm the weapon smith that used to give free imps to all and sundry on their server. Some may even call me a turncoat, a traitor. I first logged into Premium time on 12 December 2012, and, back then, there were only two servers. Independence, and Wild. I joined a village on the former, Silent Hill. I spent many a good evening there, playing alongside Eliasthecrimson, Aeris, Tombat, and Stalk.. I was soon made an Elder by Elias, and took Tris back to see all was still good. When Exodus opened up in 2012 I founded a deed there, my first of 5. . I then went to Chaos and lived there for four years,. I should have gone to Wild first I guess, because I loved the PVP side of Wurm. II also played on Epic, as a member of The Horde. That was for about a year or so. I went back to PVE when Black Legion were no more. I was the only BL in the whole kingdom on that day. I grabbed a sailing boat and headed for Xanadu, where I founded a deed, called Arthur's Seat. I have played with long established players and newbies alike, and I've treated all the same, as intelligent, dignified people. I am saying goodbye, community. It has been a ###### good trip. Take care, each and every one of you. Yours most sincerely, Lancelot. X

    There are still a few 2D icons missing. I just looked through my inventory and found a few: Tents - need their own icons instead of the fabric roll icon - this will save me accidentally trying to heal myself with my tent! Chisels / Carving Knives - need their own icons as these look the same. Monthly Skins and other Item Skins might need their own icon - they currently look like a gold coin, which could potentially be an expensive mistake when trading Archaeology Reports, Tree/Bush Reports, Recipes and Papyrus Sheets all currently look like a roll of fabric None of these are urgent, but maybe we should make a note of them ready for future updates. If you can think of any more - please add them below!

    You mean delete things people pumped 1000s of euros in to? As someone who has never set foot on a PvP server since Exodus was added and largely against PvP mixing with PvE because of all the drama which has affected me personally as well - NO. There is over a decade of people's work there. All the money spent on upkeep and items back in RMT days included. As much as i'm not a fan of PvP in Wurm, i wouldn't do that to anybody.

    Tempted as I am to rant here, I will refrain. All I will say is this: I've known Shydow for many years and I am yet to see a person in Wurm more willing to go out of his way to help a member of community. I can attest to his personal integrity and professionalism and trust him with my life! Whatever it is these guys are accused of, I THOROUGHLY suggest look deep into it and I am sure you will find that it is false. Clear his name and re-instate him ASAP because we need him!

    I also feel it has been a great loss to the community. Setting personal feelings aside, I can say they were all valued members of the community. I see CA Help struggle without Shydow's and Sugar's vast knowledge. I miss Shrimpiie chiming in on GL getting the crowd back in good order without being too harsh. It's a sad time in Wurm.

    So, apparently my previous comment on this extremely unfortunate event was pulled, so lets try again... I'll try hard to not put the master on blast, as I assume that's what got the last one yanked. Shydow, Shrimpiie and Sugarfoxx are extremely valued members of the Wurm community and the GM crew. They are kind, helpful, thoughtful, considerate people who are eager to share their vast knowledge. The void in the GM ranks that has resulted will undoubtedly have long-term consequences, with the negative impacts reaching the entire spectrum of Wurm community, from the upper levels of management to the lowest brand new player. From my conversations with at least one of those involved, I know that the trust factor between the top tier of management and these three (as well as those of us who count them as dear friends) has been irreparably damaged, and that is a shame. There seems to have been a concerted effort the last year or so by the dev and GM team to win back the trust of the player base after so many years of letting that slide, and this feels like it's undone all that hard work. I do hope that our leaders see the error of their ways and work overtime to repair this.

    Out of respect for those involved, I am going to continue to be silent on what transpired. I still consider this an open investigation, and I've reached out for more information. I will say that I feel this was an unfortunate lapse in judgement that broke trust. A decision made because of a tricky personal situation. I promise to make a more informative post once the investigation has concluded.

    ... A NEW DAY IS DAWNING ... Blossom Market had fallen into ruins. The merchants had been replaced with signs saying they moved on, the buildings decayed, and all that was left was overgrown concrete slabs and the unwanted items left behind by transients, vagabonds, and nomads. But the Gods have seen fit to gift us with a new opportunity. Beautifully landscaped gardens of the Gods have sprouted. New buildings to house merchants, craftings areas, and suites with amazing balcony vista views are in the final stages of construction. More details coming very soon!

    great idea and the sort of thing we need in game I also thought about at high level gardening (70+) being able to cross breed flowers to get new types. daft little example crossing a yellow flower with a rose you get the chance to grow a yellow rose etc. Would love something like that in game

    cool but most people won't care, and any "new players" will never care what people do continue to care about is the complete destruction/remodeling of game mechanics that people have used for 15 years that are no longer available going forward there are tons of these cases and fishing isn't the first, and definitely won't be the last the very core of this game is BORING, get over it, thats one of the reasons why we have sub 250 active unique players in a game with so much potential whats next? can't mine on the same vein for more than 15 minutes at a time? can't imp at the same forge for 15 minutes at a time? can't chop the same wood type for more than 15 minutes at a time? whats so hard about implementing a leisurely way to skill gain these skills at like a 30-40% reduced rate in order to appeal to both sides?
