I'm having the same problems as Fizziepop.

This is still an issue.

Saraski comes back every 3 months to add upkeep to Otherside, He is due any day now. Maybe making a bridge will relight his interest in Wurm I'm not playing consistently, at the moment, but will help where I can. Only decent skill I have is mining(90). My blacksmithing's low 80's BUT my neighbour Eratosthenes has at least 10-15 points on me there. ( Gleefully throws Erat under a bus ).

Brynden, just because you don't have a particular problem doesn't mean the problem does't exist for others. Sarcaticous, if I ran out of dirt I, also, would dredge, or buy it, or if desperate use my Fo to make it. The issue is some people with huge projects use less community friendly measures to get their dirt. Some servers seem to have a deeper dirt layer than others. Deli has always seemed dirt poor, and as mentioned in my first post, one player there is upsetting many by digging perims and steppe to rock to allow him to build his monument. I'm sure many people have had this issue at times and the general disharmony it causes detracts from the game. Reading the OP I assumed that was the reason Tuanta made this suggestion. Not to make dirt gathering easier, but to avoid large areas of 'community land' being reduced to rock.

What about a few 'dirt resource tiles per server', Idk call it red loam tile or something. Make them in starter deeds perim so they can't be 'owned' by players. New players could probably earn a few silver helping fill carts for experienced players who'd rather do other things. Being next to starter town would be a bonus for them. People would still have to travel to and from , dig and transport the dirt back to their deeds. It would give players with grand projects the option of getting dirt without upsetting their neighbours, or ruining large areas of open land for the next aspiring deed owner. I know some people would still do what's easiest for them, regardless of the angst it caused, but I think the majority would use such a resource as intended.

What are you saying here Neoruger?..Is this a reason why the suggestion shouldn't be implemented? Are there Fo priests out there making dirt to sell to those unfortunate enough not to have a Fo available for their epic monuments?...a way around the problem of getting dirt? Just make a Fo get him to 40 faith and spam dirt spell?...30K dirt later you are half way there ? Can you clarify your post a little please?

I imagine people who sell dirt may not be happy with it, but I see a lot of merit in this suggestion. Presently one player on my server is making a "monument to Fo, a great pillar to reach to the sky", which he says has 40K dirt in it so far and will need another 25 to 30K to finish. This dirt has mainly been taken from the steppe, which he has dug down to rock in many areas, and says he will cover with one dirt to allow steppe to regrow. Many people are upset as he also tends to dig right up to perims. Now, before all you 'deed it or lose it'..'it's a sandbox,, don't tell people how to play'.. people get on your high horse, I agree, it is his right. While I'm sad to see the destruction and drama this has caused I am not saying he should be stopped. But if you look at the big picture his actions are going to make it hard for anyone to ever build in those areas, so not great for the game overall. Tuanta's suggestion would help reduce this type of issue. I'm not a terraformer, and maybe there are reasons why this suggestion can't or shouldn't be implemented, but atm it's a +1 from me. In a pm someone has pointed out one downside to this suggestion that I see as very valid. "I see benefits and draw back to both ways. On one had it would be nice and easy to just be able to run out and grab all the dirt and sand you need without it affecting the terrain, especially in the case of ---------- destruction of the steppe as we know it. On the other hand dirt was meant to be a finite resource, if made infinite there probably won't be much water areas left on any server."

Yes, yes Bruhamoff, I'm sure your blatant taunting in chat was simply a panic reaction, and your refusal to make restitution until the GMs intervened was because you were still overwhelmed with guilt. What's truly low here is your attempt to manipulate the victim into publicly accepting your apology of an apology. That's adding insult to injury. A true apology requires repentance. You say.."Hey, I was a jerk, and I'm sorry. I will try not to be a jerk again", and if possible you fix what you damaged because you truly feel bad about it. Then you shut up and show by your actions that you are trying. You don't continue to make excuses, or fabricate and twist events to squirm out of what you did. Nor do you whine when people are less than pleased with you. Man up, close the damn thread, serve out your parole period quietly and wisely, and let us all keep on Wurming. Or is all this attention just too important to you?

I have been told that enlightenment requirements have been 'swapped'. Before you had to wait the time period but didn't need the skill level. Now you don't need to wait the time period but must have the skill level. Please , anyone who knows this to be incorrect, enlighten us all Sighx you can see who is at what level by selecting path leaders from your med rug, and try contacting the appropriate one. Unless this has been changed as well

I am having the same problem. I'm Australian and the disconnects and refresh lag have been slowly increasing over the last few days. Today it's unplayable. After several attempts to login it may allow one or two actions before disconnection.

Friendly bump

Please add me to the list. I am Delian with 80+FS and 77 huge axe.

I fail to see how a horse that was dead by the 12th of Dec can be the same horse that went missing around New Year. I have had horses born on my deed with the same name and colour on a few occasions. As far as equipment goes, I know I have sets of 70ql/70WOA and 90/90 on some horses but would be hard pressed to know the exact ql and cast . Quasiwud, I understand your anger at the loss of a good horse and gear, but the timing suggests this isn't the one you lost, and accusing someone in error is embarrassing for both you and the other player. Are you sure about the timing of the horses disappearance? Erozaxx, I'm sure you would remember if those horses you found had gear on them. Horses often glitch out after crashes and are found wandering many tiles from where owners expect them to be. The nice thing to do if you find a geared animal is to post and ask the owner to claim it.

My staircase used to be a bag with ? on it. It's now an actual staircase, doesn't work of course but looks good. Or would if it went from ground level to next level up, instead of down . Hmm I don't ever remember trying to create one so I will blame a villager, works for me

I was shocked that anyone would label Brash as a Troll. She is one of the most helpful and considerate players I have met in Wurm. She's up for sainthood in my book , just for the patience she exhibited in answering my newb questions years ago, and for continuing to help, advise and encourage new players to this day. I saw her as a role model, but my halo slipped as I do not have the patience for it at all. I met Hugh at the Deliverance Impalong in 2013, and, though he was bossy and pedantic, he worked tirelessly to keep the smithing area running smoothly. If it is you Hugh, hiding behind that vitriolic alt, then grow a pair and fess up. We all do and say things we regret when we are passionate about stuff, and most people are willing to forgive and forget as long as we are reasonable once the steam stops emitting from our ears. If it's not you, Hugh then I apologise and hope that the person responsible will stop cowardly allowing you to take the blame. Flylo, will you stop with the snide remarks, you do yourself no credit. Wurmians are not so stupid as to be swayed by your claim of this being a 'trivial issue' and 'people complaining about anything'. Obviously it's not trivial in the eyes of many. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and nobody likes to have an area they travel daily look 'ugly'!

Or adjusted by OP?

One of my newest arrivals is called Bloodwarrior..nice little black female fated to take the place of Raged, my present mount, when she grows up My favourite cart pair ..Pinkiebrisk and Briskpinkie. I had high hopes for Edstark, but he was poorly traited and lost his head!

Nah, he's a bit of an ass, and far too young for me.

COD one of the axes to lizabeth please.

Hyperdallas I understand your disappointment. You were probably excited and invested a lot of your time, and in your mind it all went to ####. Seriously though, it was an invitation to attend , not a requirement. Also, it was not a primary school excursion, with responsible adults holding your hand and taking head counts. Players come at their own risk!
