  1. A little context. I came back to Wurm this past June after being away since 2014. Historically I was always a PvE player and had deeds on just about every server on Southern Freedom Isles. I managed to resurrect both my main and priest alt from 2014, not uber-characters but skills in the 70's, 80's and a few 90's. When I logged on I was at my old deed location on Xanadu and was able to rebuild quickly. The game is much, much faster now with different vehicles and in addition to enchants there are runes that are made from Rift materials; with a rune you can put a BSB in a cart; they have wagons and crates now, crates are like mini-bsbs you can load in your vehicles (no more rafts). Fishing, cooking, fighting and religion have all had reworks (some great, some not so great) and a ton of new content to explore and enjoy. I came back to SFI and enjoyed rebuilding my deed and learning a bunch of new things but within a few months it was apparent that SFI was a stagnant cluster. I began to explore the new cluster (a few years old now) Northern Freedom Isles. Cadence reminds me of when Freedom was getting 250-300 people logging in at a time, kingdom chat is busy, trade channel is busy, bulk orders are common, easy to get and to get filled, people are joking and having a good time, all around I found NFI a lot more fun to play in, even though I had to start characters from scratch. The game has changed a lot but it's essentially the same game but with turbo available now, if you want it. Oh, yeah, the crafting window makes for a lot less clicking. That's my two cents, enjoy it when you come back, I've been having a blast. ps I'd like to hear the perspective of someone who was here for the whole time.
  2. RIP Aaedean

    I said it at the event but I also wanted to make sure everyone got a big forum thank you for what you created. The tone of the event managed to be fittingly solemn and playful at the same time; the design of the memorial is both beautiful and thought provoking as befits its purpose, so, Big Forum Thank You to everyone involved, you should all be very proud of the tribute you created.
  3. Damn, thank you so much. I've been enjoying my return to Wurm immensely but this is truly the icing on the X-Mas cake. was afk, Xmas stuff, Great gift, thanks again

In honour of the Holiday Season I'm gifting complimentary Iron imps when I'm at the Site, WS/CAS to 70+ and BS to 80, If there is no one waiting I can imp higher for you. Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays
  5. I'm actually interested in learning more about the basics of training a toon on the PvE servers to eventually transition to a PvP server When I look on the wiki or the forums there is next to no information on training for PvP. I'm sure this information is common knowledge amongst PvPers but it seems no one is willing to share any information with the wider PvE community. These are the only pages I could find on the Wiki https://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/PvP_(Combat) and https://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Guides:Mastercheifs_Guide_to_PvP . No one can think that is an adequate amount of information? If you truly want more PvE players to try PvP then share some basic information with us. I took nine years off Wurm so any toon I bring over, or anyone else's new toon, will never be a threat to the core PvP player base so you have nothing to lose by sharing information. If you're really serious about attracting new players and not just meta-gaming with this post then share some real info about PvP, maybe appoint a spokesman that people can come to with questions, once a week have a PvP question and answer thread in chat, update and improve the wiki. At the very least talk to people in chat when they ask you about PvP; this isn't 2008, the best weapon and shield combo for PvP is not a Kingdom secret (this is not the information I seek I only use it as an example). My new toon is already premmed and training stances and shield bashing. Xianruflux's FS is 78, in two days of casual training my new toon's weaponless fight skill is better than mine and his stances are already a third of my skill so obviously there are right and wrong ways to train for PvP. I sincerely hope things improve for the PvPers because a united community is stronger than one divided and we all have the same goal and that's to keep playing Wurm and having fun. That's my two cents, for what it's worth.
  6. .60kg because baby needs a new pair of gloves for the New year's Eve Ball?
  7. Empyrean Stone Rune - When attached to an oven, forge, kiln or smelter it eliminates the requirement for kindling when starting the fire.
  8. I'm just in the middle of helping set up a deed on North Xan. When I'm a little less busy I will get involved, I love this idea.
  9. Add Guard Tower Darkbringer 530 3194, 1930
  10. Joe, I'd be happy to receive any pelts you wish to mail to me, thanks. Ingame name same as forum.
  11. New Guard Tower Xianruflux 874 3548, 5787
  12. Currently I can put all my other leather horse equipment on the Saddle Rack. Saddle Bags are not allowed, either on their own or when equipped on a saddle. It's always nice to have like items together, especially something like Saddle Bags which you don't see unless you open the saddle. I know nothing about coding but this would seem to be a simple addition of another item that the Saddle Rack can hold.
  13. Thank you so much for the saddle, my pleasure upon its arrival was nearly surpassed by my surprise and enjoyment of your gift, have a great day.
  14. Hello, could you mail me one of your 80ql saddles, please and thank you. In game name is the same.
  15. You can change "Settings" before hitting the play button and don't forget to save your changes. Hope that answers your last question.
  16. On behalf of all the Mac users all I can say is thanks and good work.
  17. Due to mailing issues with rakes it would be helpful to indicate which server you are playing on.
  18. I see no issues with the screenshots you were sent. I did not see any dead animals, the pens do not appear overcrowded and there are plenty of fresh crops for the animals to eat. So the only issue I can see here is the pmer's reduced FPS which many others have suggested could be related to his/her personal choice of game settings or computer. When my FPS is affected by game content I change my settings and carry on. Many others have brought up the animal cap issue, the aggressive/non-aggressive issue, the item lag issue and optimization. All these issues may need to be addressed but not the concerns that you were pm'd about.
  19. Flyingkiwi, thanks for the order: [09:31:57] The items silently disappear from the spirit cottage. You expect them to arrive in less than ten minutes.
