How to stop gatewalling.

[Houds]

We do need a more effective way for wall-owners to tear down walls easily.

Just make walls "deletable" on your claim.

People can just claim your unclaimed walls and destroy them just as easily....

[Chakravanti]

So claim your fucking walls?

[Potjeh]

I could just lay a claim outside your claim and start building walls around your shit anyway. It would be a lot more work to grief.

Can't make a fully enclosing wall, because claims have to be at least 5 tiles apart. So, your wall would have holes in the corners.

Remember, you won't have any unclaimed walls, since they can only be built on a claim.

Of course, there is some question of what would happen to a wall that is abandoned or unclaimed. I suggest that they just decay quite quickly.

Yea, just make sure you have your walls claimed. If anything this will make managing your claim easier seeing as you need damn near superman strength to break walls down. If you want to modify or make an enclosed section bigger then you could just delete a wall segment (only if its on your claim, of course) and expand from there. Also, if you come across an abondoned settlement and wanted to use its land this would make settling there a bit easier than either waiting for the walls to degrade or take the time to knock them down.

unless....I moved my claim!

True, but the individuals would be able to safely wall themselves in individually. You probably don't need (sorry, edit:) group walls until after you have the totem, anyway.

to be fair this would be more reasonable if authority objects provided greater coverage. banners are tiny

Possible solution: Allow any wall not on a claim/village to be disassembled by anyone without regard to strength. Walls on a claim/village can be disassembled by anyone with Vandalism access. This means you can't use a wall to protect areas beyond your claim/village nor can anyone effectively use them offensively around someone else's claim.
