Also, if you think starting over is "hard", this might not be the game for you.


When my char died, the entire log in thing disappeared from my log in options. I didn't mean it was hard as in hard to do, I meant that I had spent alot of hours getting it done. Your reply could very well be the reason why other girls simply refuse to play.

you acting like he is saying that gaming would be harder for girls when he made no comment about gender, and your willingness to point right away and claim you have boobs means that you sir, are a guy.

an actual female leaves her gender out of it, always. if she doesn't its a guy. women understand why, men pretending to be women are going to claim"thats not true".

I merely meant that guys have a tendency to remain emotionally unattached to things, something that girls find difficult to do. At no stage did I say I have boobs. I worked hard on my little char and felt disappointed to find that when she died, everything that she had done was now left to remain inaccessible. I am trying to understand the fundementals of this game as I have only been playing for 2-3 weeks and alot of what I had done was without alot of assistance. To begin with, I was with a village but then I went off on my own and started over. I was trying to build it up enough to make my own village and then invite people. I just wanted to see if I could really play this without the boys helping me. As far as my gender goes, I am a 40yr old, very plain looking woman. If I were trolling you, I would be saying I was a hot looking 18yr old virgin.

I play just fine, but I understand what I'm playing; this is no Farmville. There is permanent death, and harsh consequences for mistakes or nievety of game mechanics. At any moment you can be killed, griefed, walled-in, stolen from, bugged, or lose everything you own. It's just what this game is.

I'm not trying to be harsh. I'm just explaining to you that if putting long hours into a game where failure and frustration lurks around every corner is not something you're happy to do, you should not play it, and you certainly shouldn't complain that it's too hard or unfair.

Regarding the situation with your claim, it sounds to me like you would spend far too much time and effort trying to reclaim your old plot. My suggestion would simply be to start over somewhere new. Death is not uncommon in H&H, nor is losing property, so consider this a valuable piece of experience that should train you to be better at the game next time round. You may even enjoy picking out a new location and getting the chance to build a more organised plot or fix any mistakes you made when you were completely new.

I hope you do continue to play with your fresh new character, despite the problems you've faced. You've had a relatively harsh time for your first couple of weeks here, and I sympathise with that. There's no tutorial or 'easy start' here. You just got unlucky, that's all. Good luck.

Go up the ladder and end up at your ancestor's hearth fire, if you try using reincarnation is will always say "not enough room at this hearth fire"

Congrats on buying swimming and then attempting to swim and killing yourself after being told never to learn swimming 20 times in every single guide ever posted and even being warned in game.

I'm guessing it's probably better if you just give up now.

We learn on our mistakes, don't we? Chill and show some support to the newbie or at least some constructive criticism. :roll:
