Griefers :/

[ejonkou]

Is there anyway to deal with them?
I founda nice spot yesterday by a river full of fish and in a dense forest. I didnt start Construction yet, except my stake and a dreamcatcher.
Suddenly! I logg on today somebody has spammed a few "Loom" construction signposts and chopped down all of the trees around my settlement.

He has been starting to use a plow to plow the ground abit random, looks awfull.

If you need a pic, I can post one. Also if I post a pic, and someone lives close or has passed by, can you tell me where I am ? The map looks quite unique.

Edit: I am using all the logs around to make planks for my house. Im not gonna let the griefer make me move :/

A palisade usually works, but he's high leveled if he can plow your land and build stuff, that takes Vandalism (50,000 LP, prerequisites are another 50,000 LP). So watch out

I have built my claim yet. He's just putting down construction posts that takes huge ammount of materials to make.
Like loom, 20 String... X_x

Im gonna finish my claim once I get my last 2 bones needed. Hunting rabbits when my house is done.

Just in case. Stock up on plenty of tree logs (the big one's) so that you can build your palisade in record time from start to finish. Do the same for the pavement when your ready to palisade your property.

I think it may be he is not a griefer. What you say makes me think he does the grind. If you look at these loom, does he put into them more than the branch? To make the loom gives the good lp. It is the good way to use the branch before you cut the tree. This way you get the more lp. If he is the griefer the logs he would turn into the clogs and the looms he would place all in the circle about your hearth to make the wall.

Do you find the hearth fire? It is the most easy to find in the dark.

If he is not in the area it is possible he travels by, finds what he thinks is the wild place and he exploits it. It is possible he does not know you live in that place. Me, I have been told by the experienced player that it is good to cut the trees for the lp. I am told, do not cut the trees beside the village. That is unkind. But if there is no village this is the good thing to do. He is hard upon the resources, but it is possible not unfriendly.

If you wish to gain from his looms the lp it may be that if you put into them the planks and blocks you will have many more lp to raise your skills. For the new player to build the looms is a great advantage.

Later in the game it will be that you have too much food. Perhaps you try to make the point of intelligence and must eat the full inventory of blueberrie and perch. It takes too long! You cannot go from the camp because the inventory is full. At this time to destroy the loom sign is good. It drains the stamina and creates the hunger.

Also good at this time is to remove the stumps. They will be of the most valuable to repair the pallisade. You will need the six or eight blocks close to the wall. You do not want to go the long distance to get logs. The stumps store for you the useful blocks. They do not decay.

I agree with Allumeuse, that doesn't sound like a griefer, just a regular player grinding LP in a somewhat destructive way. He might not have realized there was an active player living there, there are after all tons of abandoned nubcamps all over the map. If it was an actual griefer he would have used the cut down trees to build a palisade around your hearthfire, sealing you out of the world permanently.
