  1. You're still roughing it out on WO poor thing. I suppose the in game currency and items being transferred to real life cash might appeal to many, but it also creates an atmosphere that's all but chill. I happened to befriend one of the cooler "kill crews" but there was still drama. You don't get to invite friends for the kill, we needed some rude persons skills and I felt bad about the newer players who had read about dragons on the wurmpedia and were hoping to get to see one every damn time they could see in the event log that one had spawned. But for a lot of players the uniques are very much a little fairytale being told in letters in the event window, and you start to wonder if these things even exist.
  2. Aaaaand the hot tub
  3. Oh, and the outhouse
  4. Worked a bit on decorating my house - probably not quite done here yet, but it will have to do for tonight:
  5. I just posted in the "What I hate about Wurm" hence I feel obligated to also post on here. I am on forums cause clearly - I love the game. I love: - The terraforming aspects of the game - The amount of choices, like wall/fence types and the ability to use them however you please (lots of games have template houses ? Nothing kills my motivation as being stuck with very limited design choices!) - I love having actual in game neighbors and seeing everyones amazing creativity with this game. From my perspective, Wurm becomes like a very entertaining chat engine where you get to know people while having something else to do - and it gives us common ground to relate to and inspire eachother - Animal keeping and use of (a)live animals (might sound silly, but a lot of other sandbox games lack this one aspect which means a lot to me personally - going around killing stuff as the only means of collecting things just isn't my style)
  6. For WO: - Unique drama. I tried to go back to WO after a little over a year of WU. Within a week I had heard of a unique stolen by a group of elitist players right in front of someone trying to pen it. Another one was sold to a team of people with real life money. The excluding attitude of part of the elite squad is such a turnoff. As a newer player you will feel excluded and all but welcome. And if you dare to complain expect their rage. Before leaving one of my better WO friends was getting ignored and mistreated by someone they liked for some unique drama they had no control over. Let's just say the WU server I am part of is nothing like this. - Time sink. Need I say more? I sold my good WO accounts cause I simply couldn't stand the time spent getting almost nowhere. Good if you are unemployed perhaps, but I would get nowhere with the time I had available. - Cost. If the game was faster and with a better community feel then I would probably not argue this one as much. I feel like I am already paying simply by the amount of effort that is required to accomplish much of anything. The community has frustrated me. I don't want to pay to be frustrated (no offense, I hope the people I actually am happy to have met know who they are - it's just the toxic drama...)
  7. +1 It's the typical Swedish souvenir - would be totally realistic too. I am not sold on riding them - maybe with a new trait that kicks you off randomly (a little like the trait where they randomly stop leading)
  8. +1
  9. +1 I spent a couple of days decorating a bar - totally lacking a bartender though...
  10. I had way too much fun running around taking screenshots of my most recent projects with high graphics settings: (And a few more can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/E507ZT2 )
  11. Had the same happen on WU today. It was a venerable greenish wolf (female, not pregnant, on deed, inside a locked pen with food on the ground next to it, cared for). (Server: Sklotopolis, and I did not use any runes on it)
  12. +1
  13. +1
  14. ++++++++ While we are at it - can we also add tall banners that we can dyes as well please?
  15. Well, glad to hear someone did check and found nothing - since I havent aquired the skills needed to figure that out myself. Then I can use it for interior design with good concience
  16. Anyone happen to know if oleander wood has any unique properties to it? (given its so hard to get it would make sense that it did). So I am curios if anyone actually dug through the code to find if out if it does?
  17. Lol, I dont blame you. Its just... I am on a tight budget and I needed something to serve as both bouncers and bartenders Now if I can get a hell hound in there somewhere as a "bring your dog to work-day" it will be even more awesome (and scary).
  18. Finally got around to some interior designing off my inn/tavern (complete with a library if you get bored):
  19. Consider it done, and thanks Sklo
  20. As I was trying to make a highway today I noticed a message, telling me that I had KoS active. I am on WU (Sklotopolis server) and I have never used this function and I am the mayor of the deed. After some research I realize that reputation for this one player is set to negative. In my deed settings however, my deed does not even allow KoS. The guy, that I haven't personally met before, happens to show up in local the same day, and let me know he is fairly new to the game and had accidentally gotten the guards to attack him while he was digging moss on the deed. It doesnt make much sense that digging a resource tile (which I have set to be allowed to anyone), would cause him to get KoSed. Are there any other settings that might be helpful in trying to debug this? Or is it server side bug? (The server is a pure PvE server, if that matters.) Or is this something server side that I should report to the Sklotopolis team? Its odd that someone got on my KoS list without me 1. allowing KoS in the first place (it is not ticked in the "settlement" -> "manage settlement" menu) and 2. simply from digging (or possibly picking up?) moss on the deed? (non-citizens have access to both digging resource tiles + pickup). Thinking this must be a bug of some sort?
  21. Wait, does this mean that players who have previously been using ladder openings to reach their wagon with building materials several floors below them, suddenly have to build bridges or haul crates to get the mats within range? (on WU but trying to prepare - I like to build tall stuff... I imagine this is coming for us as well?)
  22. I will help bump this went back to WO to be reminded of the good ol days (I am one of those WU traitors). I could not pass up on the recruitment ad. From what I have gathered so far : well organized, engaged mayor, highly active, great community. If you are tired of being on your own, or just want somewhere safe while you get some skills going, you will probably like it here.
  23. I haven't posted here in years. But this is from my new homes on the Sklotopolis server (some projects aren't quite done yet):
  24. +1 I am thinking a nice avatar looking jungle down below \o/. Florescent plant life would be slightly realistic anyway. As it is now I can't stand caves. Must have non man made light please
  25. +100000! Been wanting this forever..
