  1. Is there any change planned for the number of care for spots we get? Given that a player can't just rely on their cart/wagon team to also be their ridden mount with this update, or face not having the optimum speed/weight abilities that means they need to own more beasties. also is there an ETA for this update? Even a vague, subject-to-change one? This week, next week, next month, sometime in summer? Please?
  2. +1 There's no logical reason I can think of to not be able to haul up stairs (ok, spiral stairs could be awkward, I suppose). Having to build a house around both staircase and ladders is annoying and cluttered looking, to me.
  3. I don't think people are saying it's not the best idea purely because of sermon alt issue, and more because you have to be realistic about these things. It's unlikely that the amount of f2p players swayed into continuing to pay for premium will in any way outnumber the amount of alts everyone else will no longer bother paying to prem up. I can say here and now that in the proposed system, I will never again pay for premium for my various alts if I can just run them for free on the occasional weekend. Yes it would be great to get new players to stick with wurm, and start paying premium, but can we figure out a way that doesn't involve current alts slipping the net?
  4. problem with goblins is they can be dead before I even pull them somewhere more sensible. And them am left to be forever plagued with wondering if it was one with a fantastic recipe about its person. I've had them vanish into lesser slopes, too. It's an irritation that was supposed to be fixed, so can we possibly have it more fixed, please?
  5. Yes please, more things posted to forums would be lovely. I have a social media allergy. And checking discord is like wading through GL-Freedom for CA-Help info, for want of a (much) better analogy. So ty, Xheth for posting this one
  6. That's 23:45 GMT (or 00:45am on tuesday 4th for UK) sneaky bump
  7. Easter Dragon

    Excellent work, Stan, and not just with the maps Hopefully I'll remember both the right day this time and to set off early.
  8. Thankyou so much. I will no doubt forget this valuable info within the week
  9. Start bid: 3s Minimum increment: 20c No Private Bids
  10. or at the very least let us proceed with the tree chopping, although firepillaring it would be more amusing
  11. I could name a few staff members this applies to lol Aaanyway, this will probably get me a warning or ban for being 'critical of staff', but seriously, don't tell me how to behave on another website wholly unconnected with you. (subject matter asides)
  12. Agreed, even if it's a two tiered mute option of 'mute' and 'mute everywhere' If someone wants to take the chance of possibly missing out on helpful info, that's their choice. If someone wants to completely avoid another player who is negatively affecting their game, they should be able to do so. This would also have the added advantage of preventing potential bickering in ca between people who clearly dislike each other.
  13. Congratulations to the winners! However, all I keep thinking is: and
  14. meditation has nothing to do with being a priest, so ... no 70 prayer is a pita, but it's doable. eventually I imagine it's less of a frustrating goal for someone approaching the priest journal as a new priest, with the heads-up of keep praying as much as poss as the progress, as opposed to a fully established priest champing at the bit for that one last irritating goal for Benediction completion
  15. will also do best to be there, with bells on. Well, one bell. In my backpack. Thank you to the brave penners, sounds like it was a fun one!
  16. same here. driving me mad, pardon the pun. I am not co-ordinated enough to steer both mount and camera <flails>
  17. Thanks for the slaying. With all the lag I'm surprised I made it without dc. My client hated it, but I was happy.
  18. They did. That's what 1st March 2020 (GMT) means. When it turns 1st of March in Greenwich mean time zone.
  19. Agreed, I have a single wide overly long, utterly pointless 80ql bridge by my deed that is making it impossible for me to hook up to the highway network I could do extensive amounts of terraforming to get around it, but it would still be there, still being pointless, when the land it's on is already perfect and good to go for highway-making. I could spend years of my wurm life bashing every last tile of it, but I should not have to when a catapult is supposed to work Someone please fix this. Pleeeeeeese
  20. I could get behind these ideas as a basis for a Rite-casting rehaul
  21. why yes, give the masses a target to focus their frustration at, and maybe hate mail and harassment too. Great idea /end sarcasm
  22. removing the ability to cast a Rite if you have already done so potentially leads to a situation where there's no priest able to cast. Once this rush (ok, its a very slow and bottlenecked rush of existing priests already with the required faith and channeling, but you get the idea) to do it for journal goals is over and there's no one waiting in the wings ready to cast - what then? Back to them being as rare as hen's teeth. Especially given the current wurm population. Also, maybe when someone offers to let you join in casting with them, you don't turn around and tell them you plan on doing it later and they're not welcome as there's no room. People had their chance today and cut of their noses to spite their face. If people were more relaxed, flexible and less uptight about getting in on a Rite, there would probably be a lot less sniping. Changing the journal goal makes most sense, to me.
  23. Huge +1, it makes all sorts of sense. Right now I just don't bother with books as a thing, for just this reason - it would be a waste of time.
  24. thanks for input. Sadly on this occasion I subsequently both left the server after my attempts and posting here (so wouldn't have got credit anyway) and ended up not able to log in for ages so hit max sb. I don't make a habit of recording my karma both before and after every mission related activity, would waste half my time doing so, and nor was I keeping track of journal goal progress. Guess I will do so in future. Basically i personally cannot tell whether I would have received credit or not, but can say for certain something was bugged and not working as it should.
