The Fate of Account Thieves (Portgas&co)

[Potjeh]

Right.. we're not talking about the seige system or anything...
were we? we were talking about the community... only thing is
the raiding system works fine, there's un rammable objects
that cause unbreakable vaults.... the seige system is hard as
is, but it doesn't prevent you from playing, neither does the
combat system

Different characters for raiding and foraging/hunting, so have fun catching the char with scents online outside his vault. As for having your vault broken, just move characters to a different one. An active player should be able to maintain at least two vaults, so a village with a dozen people will have lots of vaults. You can't camp them all, and the moment you leave a broken one it'll get repaired. Not to mention you can make some rather BS technically legal vaults where it takes half a dozen separate rams to get to the centre.

You miss the point of them actually being on the raiding
/violent character at some point.. if they never play on
it, what point is ther in persecuting them? even with a
thousand vaults, the weakest link is the character. It only
takes so much to kill it

Burg, I don't know where you got the impression we think this is all about us. Obviously I'm going to comment on most things in regards to "raider villages" as we happen to be one. Also, take note about what Lady Goo said, we don't kill - everyone - we see, we do make connections with village for trades, and assistance in raiding. This social aspect some feel we are neglecting is just as important to us. I've stated a few times already, I can't tell if the topic of concern here is account hacking, or raider villages. What I'm getting from this is both are ruining the game equally.

This topic was about the account theft and the general tendency of things getting worse due to a lack of control by the devs. How you Ainran guys managed to think all these things are directed to you and you are the middle of the universe just because you are getting some attention this world is beyond me, but can we keep this on track and discuss the general way the game is going in and what has to be changed? Granted the Congress might not be the best forum for that, but the thread had talen that particular direction and I don't want to open up half a dozen other cans of wurms.

thank you for erasing my effort of trying to get back to the topic.
i didnt think op made this thread to discuss the general way how this game should be.
and the discussion is all about vets nostalgia, accusations, and assumptions based on merely what has been posted on the forums, ignoring not-major towns gameplay because they keep quiet for their reasons.
if you dont even want to split this like you would usually do, how about moving this whole thread to inn or wherever you feel appropriate. surely this is not any congress matter, is it?

The problem is that raider villages have risen to prominence, this sparking more and more and more and more competitiveness.
You may ask why in the first place?

Well the answer is simply that there is nothing to do but raid unless you want to go insane doing mindless tasks.

What is wrong with the topic going "off-topic"?
When you have a conversation in real life it progresses from one thing to the next, etc.
How is this any different? A discussion/remark about account stealing has turned into this.

nothing is wrong going "off-topic" for a while as long as mods find it bearable.
but changing the topic and "keep track on" the off-topic as moderation? what is moderation for then?

[Valten21]

Your right Ewlol in that sense, it is why we pvp endlessly, it is the greatest source of enjoyment for us in this game. And I've tried to experiment with other aspects of the game, notably with my village and plot lay out, but aesthetics seem so limited in this game... Suppose that's for another thread though.

I'm beginning to have suspicions that LadyGoo and Naowhut are one extremely egotistical retarded person with multiple personalities.

I imagine his brain works something like this:

"What? Someone complained about the game being broken even though I find satisfaction in being a lying, backstabbing childlike griefer?"
"Quick! To the Forums."
"Phew, post complete, now I'll get the respect I deserve."
"Burg don't be mad at me
I'm the world's greatest
And foremost special
person. Look at me!
Look at me!"

Then later in the same brain...
"'Great Vodka God of the Frozen North my bear like people have been slandered!"
"Comrades and alts, to the forums!"
"Alright, I've finished the post with only a drop of vodka left. Now I'm off to have sex with my hairiest goat."
"burg, you mad but see that the left is not good but up begins to angry raiders testicle for that is Mother Russia and goobergikkerblahsmalkaperehntj1Qdjkfmdwhojuhdnngfg. Stupid smiley face."

All the while we never knew...

Agree++

If painhertz AND wwm agree on something then I think it's safe to assume that it is objectively wrong.
