New Fad?

Postby Kionys » Fri Oct 21, 2011 12:21 am

I was on my older characters earlier, and when I returned to their HF's, I saw that around most of my character's was a plethora of other hearth fires. Is this a new fad or something?

Does your old character have a really simple, obvious hearth secret? That would be my guess.

Yeah, but it's kind of weird to create a whole civilization around a random Hearth fire, don't you think?

one time i've created a new chara and for fun i've tryed to open the ladders with a random secret. With my surprise the ladders appeared and i've spawned in the middle of a forest near some other fires, and nothing around.

I laughed. XD

Sounds like a pleasant experience. I think. I assume you created the biggest village ever known to any world?
EDIT: Might I add, by yourself?

The point is that with the thousands of people who play the game, there are going to be ones who try out random HS's just to see where they go. obviously the more common the hearth secret, the more people will spawn there over time.

Thousands? Maybe a thousand plus a handful.

Next time you spawn try the word "dong" or the multiple varieties of the word. I guarantee you'll hit someone's HS.

With an average of about 350 players on 24 hours a day, I assure you that the player base is upwards of 5k at least.

It's also possible they just so happened to spawn in that area too and decided to settle there and your HF was in the way.
