The Death of a Treeplanter

[novaalpha]

People who can't take care of themselves or own security should join villages.

If that is true this game and the community is fundamentally flawed.

truth.
You should never HAVE to be in a village to play the game. hell, back when I was in Ah Uuc Ticab, we had someone just boat right past and try to take a shot at the farmer when she was farming her crops.
no reason, nothing said, no past aggression.
they simply boated past, and took a shot, to which she ran indoors.

and yes. we did have the zone palisaded, which is what I presume saved her life rather then him just following her in and killing her indoors.

If OP does not want to be in a village, he should develop some brain cells that would allow him not to die in the middle of his own field.

Best thing you can do is find your location were you got killed and post it in the forum.

Most people that leave scents ends up dead.

Not sure who told you that, but he was wrong.

If this random person commenting here cannot contribute to a community, he should not be in one.


Other then that, interesting contributions all around

Well everyone contributes to the community in some way, like it or not. Random killers are just another way of playing; they can disturb your playing style killing you just as much you can disturb their's farming by yourself, isolated from the world (go figure).

Joining a village doesn't guarantee you'll be safe. I say you settle down far from the shore if you are not already and start thinking on a big palisade.

Fair advice. I'll start by chopping down all the trees around me so I can see gankers when they come and they don't have a place to hide. That should give me the LP I need to get back in business as well. Will look like shit though, but it will keep me somewhat safe for now and I'll make a proper inland farm with a palisade eventually. What this area looks like when I'm done isn't my problem.

Post your location ITT or send me a PM, if you live near me I will track the scents if I get free time.

If she got hit, track the scent and give a leson to the idiot. Usually randomly shoting people ends with the bones of the agressor on the village gates.

I did. it went quite a way south, but I couldn't summon so left it be.
he apparently had a steel plate on, where-as I had nothing to the equivalent at the time.

It's completely stupid for you to expect any sort of hermit life is possible without as much security as possible considering "random murders" and killings aren't some unknown thing in the no mans land that is the H&H world.

This game isn't simulating any time period in modern real world, no major governments exist, no moral structures exist, no systems of law. When you live alone you have no rights and are basically in a "state of nature". There is nothing morally wrong about murdering you because no one has set up a system of in game moral codes or laws governing the entire world.

If you want rules and laws and protection within a society, join a village and give up some of the freedoms you get when you are alone. If you don't want to, stop being an idiot and realize it's kill or be killed when living the life of a hermit and there wasn't anything inherently wrong or right in that person killing you (or you revenge killing him for that matter).
