  1. In case you haven't noticed, Wurm is kingdom vs kingdom on almost every issue because the powers that be refuse to give us a level playing field with clear and concise rules and penalties. There seems to be an ulterior motive in almost every decision from development to rules. In a competitive environment, when you are playing against staff in any capacity you will always wonder if they are using their position to change outcomes, consciously or not. That doubt alone ruins the experience and its shameful that after all this time they still appear to either be not cognizant of or don't care about about the implications and defend the idea because they are volunteers. Make a choice staff or player, not both. Instead they should be invisibly observing pvp behavior as a major part of their job, uninfluenced by "friends" in the arena.
  2. None of the staff should pvp, ever. Even CA's can see information that can potentially affect pvp outcomes.
  3. Wurm of Duty goes on sale July 11th, reserve your copy now! What a joke.
  4. We better take what we can get at this point, the devs that handled big overhauls no longer work for the company. That's a silly statement, why would someone be mad at getting more abilities for higher skill levels? The entire game is based on this premise. If they are getting mad now over an AH improvement maybe they need a checkup from the neck up. AH is no where near as complex as meditation, you are talking apples to oranges orangutans.
  5. Good idea, or even go so far as locking traits once you hit 90 AH, say 7 traits lockable and 2 random traits so you still get variations of traits and colors.
  6. To be fair, skeletons should replace black bears in as cave spawn.
  7. Dragon drama isnt new, people fight over scarce resources, its human nature. The failure here was the creation and fair enforcement of rules regarding the matter by the staff. It is very unfortunate they seem to enjoy these grey areas that allow hypocritical rulings as they make their decisions based on the participants.
  8. Everyone has the same opportunity to loot a deed as it disbands, so there is no point in removing the messages. If you choose not to do your homework then that's on you. The sooner the deed is looted the better, why delay because of laziness?
  9. They better learn how to swing a huge axe too. *Or any other weapon type they so desire to use to survive in wurm, jeeze
  10. I was just formulating that idea as well, the tomes will still go to the deed/corpse owners but they will have a choice to make, more tomes or more hide/scale. OP edited with this suggestion.
  11. I think the people who pen and plan the slaying deserve special loot, so I disagree with your suggestion.
  12. 1. Only those who damage a drake or dragon get hide or scale. 2. Chances for tome drop increases substantially with more premium accounts in local with maybe even 2 tomes dropping with especially large events. Single charge tomes randomly drop to people in local, like potions, at certain player count thresholds too. If you really want to get crazy, the more premium accts that attack the unique the chances also increase for more tomes but you will get less hide/scale per person. 3. Encourage penning and planned events, however, the Unique must be killed within 14 days of capture or it respawns elsewhere on the server.
  13. Again, deed it or lose it. Salvagers reduce the clutter and extra items on servers, like it or not they are contributing to the health of the game.
  14. How is it anyone else's fault if your deed disbands? Are you supposed to wait till everything of value decays before you salvage items from a deed disbanded? If you see something laying on the ground off deed do you just ignore it since you abhor deed looting scumbags? Its a pretty clear indication when a deed disbands that the people in the village aren't really playing the game at that deed location considering they get 30 days worth of village messages alerting them to put in upkeep. Deed it or Lose it!
  15. -1. If you want to discover abandoned deeds at your own pace and maybe a few uniques you can always roam around Xanadu. On smaller servers someone may be waiting to expand their deed with the new land that becomes available and not want to wait for a no-build zone to disappear. Any suggestion of a no-build zone in a sandbox game, especially wurm, is asinine and lazy.
  16. It will be a huge mistake if impossible to locate Uniques are still designed to destroy structures and fences on deed. What happens when a player with prized animals like champ dogs or champ deer is away from their deed and a unique happens to spawn closeby that procedes to rampage their deed and as a result sets all their animals free? It has happened before.
  17. Don't get it twisted, the reason the playerbase is shrinking has absolutely nothing to do with RMT.
  18. The last time this happened was over 4 years ago, please stop panicking. No one is forced to used real money to buy from players so nothing needs to be changed. Buy at your own risk is a sound policy.
  19. To add to the PSA: The rash of offers today was suspect and here are the ones I found odd. If you are legit just pm me and I'll edit you out of my post.

  20. The way to fix the economy is and always has been acquisition and retention of new players. If Wurm had a bare minimum of 10,000 active players, all of this ignorant economy dribble (and pvp whining) would disappear because the economy and the community would be stable and growing. So if you are really interested in improving the economy, help find ways to attract more people to the game.
  21. Also vesseling doesn't credit the favor you use to fill the gem, only the 5 favor to cast vessel counts. Kinda silly.
  22. So what you are saying is the baddies on Chaos wouldnt let a new kingdom grow and have fun pvping?
  23. Of course it is helping the community and new players but some cant see the forest for the trees. Adding artwork is by definition adding content. What Gofs did is 100% legit and inspirational to both new and veteran players. He wanted something, he paid the required entry fee to do it, and he is now providing the community with something that didn't exist before. The game generated revenue, as it is supposed to, and the players discovered a new way to create items they want within the rules of the game if they are willing to risk pvp and spend the money to do so. I understand why the "real pvpers" are upset about this though, besides the envy and greed, they are also jealous because their silly looking art doesn't come close to what Gofs created. If you just did a better job you wouldn't have to worry about the competition, lol. Instead of complaining and whining, which seems to be your go-to when you face adversity, how about you hire Gofs to improve your art and maybe create more demand for your stuff?
