  1. Ok gonna be the first to talk about this, many have mentioned the economy as a reason to join or not to join, but the sell of items is not the economy in question here. Its the economy of owning and draining traders for deed upkeep and subscription purchase. Many long time players own multiple deeds with traders in order to make money and stay in the game. Its a well known fact that since the change in the money system many traders on the old cluster are providing far less income now than before and its also known that on the new cluster they are producing far more income. The people I know on the old cluster have been having trouble getting 3 silver a month these days while on Release im getting a lot more. This is the economy they want to get a hold of. Now they have to pay for a new subscription to be part of this and when connected they will not need these accts so we will see many of these players drop their prem. on the new cluster. So yes like a good businessman I don't want the servers joined and see my income drop down to nothing before I have time to recoup the money I spent on the trader. I know that eventually we will be joined but the time is not now.
  2. Looking over the posts looks like overwhelming yes votes from those who chose not to start on the new cluster now wanting to get here. All their arguments for why the servers should be joined, if correct should also be shared by the folks on the new servers wanting the ability to travel to the old cluster. And yet I see no such desire by those here wanting that, so I say stay on your over used and some what abused lands and leave us alone. When the people on Release and Prestine WANT the ability to travel to the old cluster than take this vote!
  3. Hey if you need things to do come to my deed and repair my bsb's.
  4. Missing Horse

    Thanks found him He was in your area Jukken.
  5. Well R7 should be named Mercury Lake. This named was chosen months ago by the people who live here and is what we have been calling it for sometime. Would hate to see the name changed now.
  6. Missing Horse

    Faststark,grey male,aged, cared for by Castile. Last seen at Rockridge,half way between Serenity and Linkoping on west side of Mercury Lake.
  7. I don't care about getting one or two per harvest, time spent skilling will give results that's what matters in this game. Also lets not forget that farming gives skill gains in body,body strength, mind and several other skills that all players benefit from. If you want to talk about wasted time spent harvesting lets discuss the 25 corpses I butchered that had no meat.
  8. Here's one for you, Inquisitor. New game with all the old school attributes that make rpg's fun. Get it on GOG for $14.99.
  9. Hey real sorry you had to experience this, I wont insult you with the crap excuse that this stuff happens because it shouldn't. My view point on this kind of thing is that as a server we need to police ourselves just like any real world community. No one lives in a vacuum, everybody is known by someone else and I guarantee you some one knows who took your cart and if they came forward we could start to put an end to this crime. If you ever see me in your local swing on by I will supply you with what ever you need.
  10. Hi, im normally a solo player but am growing to the point I need some help so am thinking of taking on a villager. Im not looking for a slave but someone who I can partner up with to help reach the next level in the game. If you think this might be something you want to try leave me a message or pm me in game. Hope to hear from you soon.
  11. Ok im mostly in favor of respawning the uniques, but on the market side I can see the point. Lets imagine these scenarios, Rolf decides that boats are selling for to much and puts a merchant at spawn that sells boats at absurdly low prices,cause everyone should be able to have one, even those who chose to be farmers. Or blacksmiths shouldn't be left out cause they don't have time to mine so lets have the merchant sell ore for 30 copper per 1000. I think these situations would piss off almost 90% of the players in the game,so I see the drake set dealers point on this. This game is player driven and the market is a big part of the game. I want the ablity to fund my deed with my hard work and any disruption in the market will cause us all to lose.
  12. My personal observations are that yes sometimes mobs will enter your deed as if there is no restriction on them. At times it seems like the new code is broken. Have not noticed my spirit guards not attacking though but have had to butcher aleast as many corpses on my deed as before and these are not mobs that have been drawn onto deed. My advice is do not fire your guards.I like to do my farming without dying and I live on a large wild deed and do not want to be forced to change that by walling myself in which is why I like the ability to hire guards to keep me safe. Like everyone else i like to be able to play the game my way.
  13. Ok I don't know about all this animal ratio crap all I want to know is why should I spend money for spirit guards when I can have tower guards for free. Plus i'd rather spend 20 mins cleaning kills than an hour leading 3 spiders on to my deed. Thanks Rolf you just saved me at least 6 silvers a month.
  14. Ok am i the only one here who see"s the writing on the wall? One of the biggest draws for me and i know for a lot of you is that this game is not made to be simple or easy. The last thing i want to see is the game being nerfed or made simpler in order to draw in the facebook crowd.I spent hours of digging to get my skill to 55 now i can dig 50 plus dirt in 2 minutes if that isnt dumbing down the game i dont know what is. I hate to say it guys but this is the beginning of the end , Minecraft 2 here we come. What im talking about in case you havent tried it yet is im digging a large area and have slopes of up to 90 steep, i can stand on level tile and in two actions level that 90 slope tile and dig 100 dirt. Sounds like a great time saver but i see bad things coming for the game i love and hope others will see it the same way. I want the game to be successful and see Rolf make tons of money, but dont want to see it go the way of other great games who felt they needed to leave behind the things that made them great in order to appeal to the masses.
  15. on Prestine still in game can move around just cant take any actions or go through doors
  16. Ranting

    I probably have no right to say anything because i have not experianced anything like this but like most things in life we seem to ask the wrong question and it seems to me that how ever bad things have got for you you have always hung on. I think the answer to the question of why youve held on to life is the thing you need to keep closest to you.
  17. Kyklops

    . Well crossing the desert is an annoyance too, should we also eliminate that or should we keep the lands of Wurm the way there meant to be, an adventure not for weak of heart.
  18. for #4 i nominate Lake of The Ageless. I would ask that you read my story before you decide,but please make the right choice.http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/74006-lake-of-the-ageless/
  19. My name is Castile and the story i'm about to tell you is true. I am a settler on the island of Release, a land of endless beauty and savage danger. I live on the lake they call #4 but whos real name i know to be The Lake of The Ageless. I started my journey on Release as a novice adventurer looking for a place to settle down and sink my roots. When i first saw the lake i knew i was home. I'm proud of the fact that i had the first deed on the lake. One day while exploring the area i came upon an old man sitting by a campfire. It was hard to tell his age but i got the feeling he was as old as the mountains around me. He invited me to sit and have a bite to eat. I enjoyed the most mouth water meal i'd ever had and when done he offered me a jug of grape wine. While we drank this he regaled me with stories of long ago heros and villians. Than he told of the Ageless who once came to these lands to hunt creatures of mythical powers and strengths. He paused for a minute and when i looked at him i saw a glint of fear in his eye. His voice got soft and he told me that one of these creatures still lived here in this lake, a creature undefeated even by the Ageless! I remember little after this and awoke the next day to find the old man gone. I've never seen him again. Sometime had passed and i had pushed aside the old mans stories as just fairy tales. One day as i was starting on a journey across the lake with a cog filled with ore i thought of his tale of the creature he called a serpent dragon and wondered what was in this lake. As if being answered by the gods the water around my boat begain to bubble and boil and up from the deeps shot a creature so fearsome that i knew i was dead. The serpent grasp my boat and began coiling his body about it. My two helpers, whos names i remember not, they being just diggers of rock and dirt, were swallowed alive before my eyes. I fell from the boat and landed in the water, i began swimming franticly for shore when the massive beast reached down and grabbed my leg lifting me out of the water. Having left my sword at home i reached in my tool belt and grasped my carving knife, swinging wildly i plunged it into his nostrol which caused it to let out a roar i'm sure was heard in Sloping Sands. Landing hard in the water i was dazed and i looked up to see the creature swing down with its head and neck striking the water next to me which created a tremendous wave that carried me close to shore. I swam ashore and lie there watching as the beast dragged what remained of my boat under the water. In a moment the water was still and it was as if nothing had happened. I still bear the scar on my leg where the creature grabbed me and i make dayly offerings of meat and gems and have not seen it since. Every so often travelers stop by with reports of a snake like object moving in the lake and boats will disappear from moorings and docks( some say that its just a server reset, whatever that is) but i know the creature waits to strike again.I hope my fellow countrymen will chose to do the right thing and not anger the beast, i implore you give the lake its proper name . Lake of The Ageless.
  20. From your post one would get the idea that your new to the game only having been premium for a month yet in the forum thread "Fo Follower Searched" you have the ability to convert which suggests that you have been prmium for some time,makes it hard to believe that in that time you never heard that macros were not allowed. Also in that post you admitt to the said infraction Goodby and good riddience.
