Let me elaborate.
Our first spot was raided, as shown by the DOAM thread further down.
So we moved.
Second spot we found was a nice spot with a cave (really soft tin), q35 soil (not the best, but good), decent enough water, and nicely defensible. We get going, start a palisade, get a small farm going. Little bit of drama, milo insisted on harvesting every thing he saw, depriving the rest of us of discoveries.
Then milo thinks it's the greatest idea every to turn on criminal acts and tresspass on a brickwall village not too far away to try to get carrot seeds. He was seen by someone with reportedly a dragon helm and ranger bow.
So we moved.
Third spot, way the hell away from both previous spots. Half the group and died or decided to move on by now so it's the 4 of us, me, milo, choco, and anthal.
First day was fine, I salvaged most of my garden so I got a plot going. Work began on rebuilding what little we had, and plans were in the works to build a new palisade with sections so we each had a spot to call home. I even had enough saved to build a beehive and herbalist table, which was very helpful for the WWWs I had found along the way to the new spot.
Then DRAMA happened. Having previously saved just the highest quality seeds, and under the impression we were staying in this (rather crappy but safe) spot, I asked everyone to let me do the farming as I had the highest skill and our worst seeds needed atleast a 15 farming not to butcher the Q of the first harvest.
Milo told me flat out no, he was going to harvest the carrots with whatever skill he wished because he had foraged half the WWWs we had found so therefor every plant the group every produced (and all items produced from said plants) was his property. And milo, don't both arguing, that's pretty much exactly what you said.
Argument happened as anthal and I both told milo he needs to leave the carrots alone, and milo insisted he owned everything any of us ever had, so he was allowed to harvest what he wanted. Another justification milo gave was apparently I wouldn't harvest fast enough, so if he did it we would have 3x the carrot crop size (from faster harvests, not the fact we were both full nature). When I logged off, I assumed milo had given in, and when I logged on in the morning everything seemed fine.
Then when I logged on for lunch, all leather, all curios, all food, my beehive, and my herbalist table were all gone along with choco's claim and hearthfire.
Milo shows up when I logged in after work, and procedes to turn on criminal acts to search through to see what anthal and myself had gotten since they left. This became a pretty much daily occurance, so anthal and I both built houses to hold our stuff.
So we come to today, when milo shows up on my claim, takes everthing he can get his hands on from mine and anthal's claims (not much, but our crates and drying racks are all empty now), then attacks my main. Log on an alt, milo claims he's quitting and procedes to dick around till anthal logs on.
Anthal tries to fight, and dies. While milo is busy trying to find more stuff to steal I grabbed the ant soldiers he put in his loot crate. Chase begins, milo pretty much proves he values those curios, I dodge behind a bear and get away. 1 new alt later, milo decides to try to play keepaway by putting something in a crate and taking it out repeatedly, claiming it's a bunch of floatsam. After getting tired of trying to trick me into a kids bully game, he kills my alt and logs with threats he'll be back tomorrow with vandalism to get his carrots.
Not exactly the actions of someone planning on quitting, more like a hissy fit from some teenager trying to prove he's more powerful than someone else while trying to hide from retaliation.
