Can we please try to focus on the positive here guys..
The idea of replenishing claims!
Let me inspect my neighbour everyday and then finally that one day in the month it says "repleneshing claim" (jorb did use a better english word for this right?). Happyness and bliss will just hit me, and forever be mine, as I bash his fucking kiln back to smithereens where it belongs!
Finally a chance to influense and monopolize pottery trading in my region! Very nice, thx.
Or for that matter just randomly roam around and find a claim repleneshing and gathering up your raid group and have some fun for the night. Just dont make it so that I still have to wait a stupid long amount of time for stuff to dry.
Lets let a raid take like 2 hours, cheers
P.S. Noticed that you talked alot about the issue where a base that has been around for a year could be leveled in a night. Can we perhaps turn that question around:
Should there even be bases that have been around for more then a year? In my opinion the fun of the game is to build the base, re-build the base, pvp, etc. so there is like .. a natrual circle of getting raided, rebuild, raid someone else, get raided... idk.. PvP, something something :p
