well, i feel for you man(both before and after the info)
it's good that your neighbors killed the thief. its bad that your village had that kinda thing. Now am i blaming everyone in the village for the 1 thief's actions? no. But since this game has a quazi perma death. . .
it's always best to boot the "badseeds" especially if u told em no already.
ok my lil story
World 2. I had just left 2 m8's my old plot and struck out on me own. bout an hour later, i find all that i need, river shore, well, 2 rocks, and all the trees you can throw a stick at. was there for a bit, had my kilns up and running, drying racks all in order, ovens a cooking, buckets full of leather full and waiting to be processed. Anyhoo i believe i had me MM up to like 30-50, can't remember. i had a descent settlement, Tons of crops and such(too new to know that you had to have a descent amount of stats to find the imfamous RustRoot, LOL i thought every cave was a metal mine, LOL). Well one day a stranger came a knocking, said he was new to game, so i took him in and showed him how to do things(now i know better not to believe anyone who says thier a noob, Especially when they're decked out in all Leather and stuff) we developed a friendship, and bout 1 or twice a week, he would go foraging for a day or 2, always said that he found this stuff from abanded areas. that made sence to me, since i saw old abanded forts and hiomesteads all the time. Well long story short, ole dude(crouppa89 or something like that)was busy using black skills to help himself to other peep's stuff. And since i was too niave to think, man where is he getting all these items and seeds, when the people did come a looking, they see this stickfence place with all thier tools and seeds.
Needless to say. he was dead, and everything i had was gone. i left that hovel with basically a q15 bow, some arrows, and i believe a hemp or flax seed or 2. i was pissed first off, because of thinking that some raider came in and lolled us, but as i read up on forums, and understood more and more of the game, it kinda occured to me that ole dude stole the stuff(yea i may never prove it, but what do u think???).
my story isnt the worst by far, but it opened my eyes and after i stopped throwing a temper tantrum(quit, went back to WoW) i started again bout a month or 2 ago(now i'm back in the mix and quit WoW again)
that's my story. .. what's yours?
