what is considered a page? I have my chat window at most 6 lines If we said 6 lines , you would be spamming at the 7th line. If we said 12 lines you would be spamming at the 13th line. etc etc. This is a prime example of people wanting exact definitions so they can work around it.

Recently a few CA have been replaced and some have had their muting ability removed. The reason is we wont accept bad moderation practice or a manner thats not in line with the moderation guide we have. It's impossible to define more rigid rules or situational instuction to each and every case, so interpretation is here to stay and is supported by our continued guidance of the moderation team. Good CA/CM do not grow on trees so we do have a mentoring/big brother program in place for all new appointments. Ok I will try this in the hope you understand that we are constantly working on this subject. Below is a section from our moderation guide which normally isnt available to the public. It is a guide only and as such is still open to interpretation in dealing with some situations, so dont expect to be able to walk the line on this.

The thread called for "clearer chat rules", and we asked you for clarification, but thats not forthcoming apparently. All we see are posts that are off the subject. Make constructive suggestions or we will have to close this thread. Thanks

So how about suggestions supplied with your complaints. Which rule isnt clear, and how do you suggest to make it clearer ? What other new rule do you suggest will help make chat better ?

Hey ... just pushing buttons to see which one works. I dont believe I have an attitude, and whatever attitude you perceive me to have is not pervasive across any so called inner circle, just my nickle going down the slot. But point taken, in future I will post a disclaimer to any comments such like " TAMOT " ( These are my own thoughts ), that way it will not confuse people.

Well I think we can all agree that if you have a JKH you should also have home servers for all the kingdoms. Add to that wild and epic makes five servers not counting GV or Freedom. I dont believe there are enough players to make having that many servers financial. Then theres the problem of what to do with Freedom. Not fair to make it a kingdom server when all the others will be getting a brand new server with no clutter, and half of you wont want to move or lose what you have made there. End of the day half of you will accept change and half wont, that goes with anything that been suggested here so far. Therefore as there isnt any globaly acceptable solution we will just have to take whats given to us when it happens.

Have to tame a mouse for him, but keep the croc's penned.

Raiding home servers was tried and it didnt work. Imo we should; 1/ Bring back home servers to all kingdoms, but with a resource cap of 50. 2/ Open new wild full ( including same side pvp ) pvp server no resource cap. A/ Double the damage and defence of all animals. B/ Double the rate of decay for all items. C/ No sand or clay resources. D/ Cannot deed land as its not recognised by the king. Other kingdom ships cannot enter foreign servers ( and no swimming across edge ). This will encourage cross server trade both ways and a full pvp area for those that want it. Epic can still be the special quest server as designed.

Congratulations Diz, I bet pop, grandad, Great gran ( supposed to say that quietly ) and the whole family are excited. No doubt yall will get good "Mileage" from him

Having already spoken to FT, we will miss him on the team as he has put a lot of effort into making wurm better for all of us. Thanks mate for everything.

We are onto it. Thanks

1/ Horton is an honorary GM. While he is activly involved in wild pvp he dosnt have any GM abilities or access to GM funtions or information. GC was given to Horton to manage and therefore we do not consider it inappropriate for him to keep his management role. 2/ It is up to the starter town managers as to who they KoS. Primarily it is reserved to stop characters from causing unnecessary damage to those towns. If they see someone they consider a possible problem they can add that character to the koS list. 3/ Respawning KoS characters can choose outside the starter deed, the big light, or their village if they belong to one. 4/ Hots can send a /dev requesting starter deed assistance to Eir/Qualia. There hasnt been any change for some years to all the above and we do not see any need for change as it is working as intended. I am dissapointed the OP didnt clarify this with the team before posting as its not a secret and this whole thread is unnessary. Click

Hang around a guard tower and either find some road kill or draw critters to them and call for help.

Firstly you are not role playing properly as a " Solo Survivor " by posting in here. But that aside you dont need to be on the coast to start with, because if you dont have a deed you should expect to have to move on at some stage anyway. I like to solo and that means to do it your way and not rely on others for anything. Try it, its not as hard as many think to solo survive, you have to think through/past any problem encountered. The main thing you will eventually realise is that its your skills that matter, and to some degree your tools, but whatever else you build isnt as important. Wish you good luck

Collect maple water from maple trees. Should need a tap and bucket per tree to collect the water. Collecting could be all year round but with diminshing returns in the hot season.(Average 1 kg per 7 days). Boil the water in a couldron till it turns to syrup (liquid). Heat the cold syrup in couldron till it turns to maple sugar ( crystals ). Heat maple sugar combined in a couldron with equal amount of water till it turns to syrup. Syrup or maple sugar should be stored in a sealed small barrel of jar. This type of storage needs the barrel/jar to be completely filled, no other items can be included. ( need a new item here to seal barrels ( barrell/jar lid ?) for longer storage of specific items, ie syrup, alchohol, pickled meats or fish etc). Once a sealed barrel/jar is opened normal decay starts.

Highways cannot be altered. Yall missed the important part. We have a case thread on the incident and the situation is under GM control and approval given to allow some minor alteration. So there isnt any change to the rules as posted.

GM do not have the ability to move players across servers. Sorry

Foreversky Aodhan has not quoted the rules correctly.

Players are not always in a position to accertain "active use", but they can see a "completed house" in the enclosure and therfore they should abide by the rules. Point taken though, so I believe we can remove "actively in use"

What could help is that animals that should not be able to climb mountains are restricted to slopes less then 90. You have no idea how many animals are on those cliffs.

"Short sighted" hahaha Making self opinionated comments like that is not constructive. But thats ok, its how you see it and thats prety much how this thread is going. Everyone has their opinion, be it good or bad, and none of us have the right to ridicule or chastise another person for their beliefs. Some are one eyed about what should be done to protect their personal investment, even to the extent of causing loss to others, most I believe do undersatnd that something has to be done and soon. I believe that the majority of you understand that any animal should not live forever so their needs to be some point of completion to an animals life cycle. Perhaps once an animal becomes venerable they require a lot more attention/grooming otherwise failure to do so will enhance their mortality rate.

Havent taken the time to read all of this thread so if Im duplicating anyone " sorry ". Domestic type animals that are not groomed when they are needing it age a bit faster, regardless if on deed or off. So if you keep your animals groomed they will last a bit longer, as well as not get diseased or die prematurely. Once they get to venerable they should be put out to pasture so to speak. Animals do not live forever, and this is the end of the line, but they can still be ridden or pull a cart till they expire. I would also suggest that any venerable animal does not give off a pelt/hide or any usable items if butchered. This would replicate the fact that the body parts etc are beyond use at that age. I do not believe any of this should be server specific, and we should count all domestic type animals collectively and not single out any one type.

Dont think its totaly a matter of more things, but more like a case of expanding the current use. Glazed pottery: ie painted and fired. Not only are they nicely colored, but they decay/damage slower. Sealed pottery: pottery jar/flask + wax. Contents decay/damage slower. Flasks : Think these were supposed to be used to contain alexirs and solutions. Jars : As flasks or for items such as lye, paints. large jars : ie jars that have a container size of 20kg. These could when sealed be used to store animal parts. Perhaps they could also need 1 salt + 1kg water as a brine to assist in storage.

Locking this as its run long enough and the OP has been answered.
