Kick Thieves you catch on your land

[JammerLammy]

I was robbed, unfortunately, while I was standing there, Im fairly new, so I was unable to stop him taking everything of value.

My suggestion is that while you are present, a right-click option on tresspassers to teleport them back to their hearthfire. It would only work while both you and he are present, and would increase the trespassers (and your own) travel weariness, allowing you to stop them, but also limiting the abuse of the action. Some people are only taking shortcuts around gigantic forts

Its aggrivating to work hard for hours on a new claim to have a random passer-by wander on and take everything of value, with no way to stop him.

The guy who wondered onto my land had the gall to say 'Hello, Im a theif!' and take everything oout of my log cabin. I tried standing in front of him to block him in the doorway, but my client exited for some reason (not idling, I had been there about 4 seconds)

Besides this, I love the game, I support theivery and its implementation as a hard to achieve skill, and thus its well-earned, but new-starters with no village or approprite skills as backup could easily by off-put entirely from the game by acts they have no way of stopping.

Just a thought.

You really just need a wall. You lucky they didn't just kill you...

[kralmir]

if i am stronger then you i have every right to do whatever the hell i want on your claim if i managed to get on it. thats how this game is and thats how it should be

just no.

The way you kick thieves off your land is with an axe/sword/arrow/stone/punch to the face. Build walls, stake a claim, and establish the means to protect yourself and your property.

Interesting idea, would completely change the dynamic of the game if you could nonviolently kick people off your land

Sigh... Oldfags. Well, the op has an interesting idea, although making it work ingame would be a pain. Also, to the haters, you expect him to have a pallisade before he has a claim or something? Also, what if he doesn't have the ability to give an

axe/sword/arrow/stone/punch to the face.

Even if he did, fighting the thief would be either hard or impossible for him considering he's new and the thief... well has theft, implied he's been here a while, has lp, and most probably has fighting skills

[theTrav]

If you are too new to have a palisade and a claim then you do not have anything of value to lose...
I expect everything the thief took could be replaced fairly quickly.


That's all somewhat off topic though, the question that needs answering, is whether J&L really want established players to be able to bully newer players, or whether they want a more harvest moon style, friendly care bear game

the thief did not get everything he has, he worked himself up to where he is, its stupid to punish him for that or help someone else. te hell is wrong with you people, i bet that if you had been playing since the start of the server you wouldn't mind it being the way it is.

Believe me, 95% or more of the current "high level" players are high level because they play lots and focus on achieving that. They've had time to make the gap bigger sure, but it's not just like that because they've been playing for a while, it's like that because they're better than you

of course, he had time but what i said was that even so he still had to build himself up from the same place as others, while people act like there needs to be some balance between the high players and everyone else, as if the high players made a char with most of what they are now already presented to them. which is stupid.
