Trees Do Not Contact Me

Give us a toggle that lets us not get quests from trees or boulders but only frogs.
The idea would prevent griefing like this:

Not sure if I agree with OP or not. My thoughts on this issue are posted elsewhere. Further, I'm not sure splitting this issue into 5+ threads is the right play, but that's beside the point.

I'm not sure why you would post this unless you're just trying to take the piss out of this idea, so I'll assume you are. Obviously, frogs would be less susceptible to being palisaded than boulders and trees, as they seem to avoid spawning on claimed territory, and only last for a few RL days before they (and all quests attached to them) expire.

OP's idea doesn't have less merit because of shitposts like this. Try harder or something.

this is very relevant

this is very accurate

in an (apparently) extremely unlikely scenario where I end up finding a palisaded amphibian, what should I do?

Are you sure? I think frogs stay where they are unless someone kills them. In World 16, I spent quite a bit of time running around the same frogs, and in World 16.1, a frog definitely stayed in the same spot for more than a few real days.

The intentions are good, but only receiving quests from frogs feels like a half-measure. It severely limits the quest mechanics. Essentially, you're rejecting three-quarters of the quest givers.
