    Hi @Veanthanks for the info, they've been removed from the map.

    As much as I'd like to see WU updates again, I'd wager that most established WU servers would have a difficult time re-coding their custom changes to make them work with any update, plus all those other client and server mods would likely need to be recoded.

    I've played PvP a fair bit over the years, the main barrier to me has always been the time-sink, by the time you've figured out what the plan is, geared up (inc removing stuff you don't need or don't want to risk losing), then travel across the map, find the enemy, gate hop, fight, retreat, heal up, go again, die, respawn, go again, die again of course (was never really any good at it :) ) , finally travel all the way back, it would run in to many hours that I simply don't have time to invest.

     

    On the plus side though, I loved the camaraderie, the constantly being on edge, even at our own capital, the heart pumping when you're in a battle where the odds are stacked against you, knowing that, for the most part, you can get your gear replaced.

     

    So in the end, I figured I'd be more valuable doing a 'Duce' and staying back at base pumping out weapons and armour, as I didn't have the time available and was more of a liability than an asset in the battlefield!

    I wasn't asked to put any input in, positive or not, I don't believe anyone was.

     

    My enthusiasm in this post is for a community member who has put many hours into a tool that the community use and share a lot, and seeing the person behind it be given recognition publicly, the rest I choose to not put an opinion on because I do not feel like I have anything better to provide personally. I wouldn't put a positive reply to a post if I truly didn't feel that way, because personally I feel that is lying to the people I'm meant to help out

     

    I think a lot of other people have made very good points, yourself included, and I hope they get answered and addressed, for the benefit of the community.

     

    Neither was I, some people seem to forget that ‘staff’ are mostly just Wurmians that have played the game for a long time and who want to give back to the Wurm community, not some sort of corporate robots. We all play the game and look forward to the updates as much as anyone else.

    In my personal view we need a connection between NFI and SFI so people can move between those clusters. We definitely do not need more servers. We're a small community so we need to consolidate this abit.

     

    I tend to agree, I know there is still some difference in skill balance, but I don't see that ever going away, and players are very resourceful and will adapt, in general I'm always in favour of bringing the community together and not segregating them in any way. I would like to see some love given to the PVP servers, however, I don't PVP any more but I loved it when I did, and I feel they deserve some innovation, although I accept its difficult to make everyone happy!!
