the most mature thing about this thread is everything except the OP. if your gonna insult us, at least try not to hide behind an alt with the imaginative name, "IHATEFAGS."

stupid death is what this game is about. I died to a fox in w5. was embarrassing as hell. luckily I have friends who don't linger on shit like that. I still lurk the forums, but other than that, I don't play much anymore. the urge is gone. I love this game, I really do. but the freshness is gone. as for snipers, whatever bro. just keep moving and don't afk outside. problem solved. hell, its not even a little extra work. If your like me and you put down all your afk stuff (smelting, baking, burning, leather making, cooking, flour making, and boiling.) inside or close to a small house, you dont have to worry about a long walk to the building.

I think burg was talking about the hardcore crowd, not casual players.

Define hardcore. I've only been around for a few months, but I've racked up a lot of time and managed to become competent in most things, I like to think. Obviously I've never run or even been in one of the 'superpower" villages, but we have managed to build 3 fully functional and protected villages so far this world with only 2 people. First one was a piss-poor location, I had more people and overestimated their willingness to work, take guidance, and mind the defenses. Second and third are, so far, going well.

I have to admit, when I was reading a lot of Burg, Avu, etc.'s comments in the interim period between W5 and W6, I just figured they were burnt out and bitter, but as I've played more and watched the world unfold, I've come to realize they were right. There's simply no incentive or reason, except for personal "moral code" (for lack of a better term), to play as anything but a raider. It's exponentially harder to play constructively then it is to simply focus your abilities on taking from others. Less work, more reward... it's really hard to blame anyone for playing that way.

I realize that "hard targets", meaning settlements without gaping flaws in their defense, are a fair bit of work to break into, but those kind of raids seem to be the vast minority. Most are more of the "dumb noob left a hole/went outside with his keys/trusted someone they shouldn't have" variety. It's one of the reasons I've focused on self-sufficiency, since even trading leaves wide open holes in your defense, and you have very few ways to determine trustworthiness or even exact revenge.

Sorry for the wall, been a lot of HnH thoughts floating in my head.

I have been in and run active towns that were NON raiders since world 5, in world 4 i was a little hermit with a tiny palisade mentored by a nice russian village who were close. We exist in a different way to others, because it depends on security, some common sense and good allies and friends. and the type of noob u mention who walks outside with a key is sadly going to learn the hard way. i did early on world 5, when my miner went out with our palsiade key and ended up getting killed and our placed trashed and 3 of us dead. all keys since went on alts, only use crossroads out etc. you either elarn to play the game as it is or not bother, in order to survive thats pretty mucht he only way

I'm still not a raider, and I still haven't quit. Though perhaps I should quit reading the forums... I do enjoy the challenge of surviving in a world that really wants me to die, and feel like I do fairly well for someone who's learned what tricks he knows from the forums and *gasp* Global. Of course, being a paranoid security freak in real life doesn't hurt that, either.

forums are amusing to read and to know the politics of the game. not necessary the most helpful took however for learning the basics, uness ure reading the manuals. learn by doing and listening to advice others have. i only started learning by being in large towns and having awesome villagers around me to tell me when i'm jacking things up.
