"But seriously, you are making it sound like we were running some kind of slave plantation. I'm having trouble believing you were asked to work 2-4 hours a day harvesting hemp while starving to death."
Again, my logging on hours were unlucky that without fail it coincided with village work except when I logged in at night, so that's why it probably sounds like that. I don't think it was daily, just whenever I logged on... which wasn't daily. My only point was that it would have been nice, BECAUSE of that, that I would have been allowed to get off work once in awhile to do my own thing - considering that's the point of the village, to do your own thing. I guess I never asked to, maybe that's my fault, not like you can mind read. If you want I can screencap my health bar, it hasn't been affected by anything else except one mouflon attack previously, other than that it was all starvation damage... and a bit of eating raw chicken/rabbit when I didn't feel like travelling to get some branches, which I maybe did like 3 times, not sure how much damage that does.
"we didn't have any walls, or any real warriors (or iron). World's End has all of these."
Well that's some good news
I think that if we hadn't been griefed, since I had just gotten my plot ready, things might have turned around for me after that since I could have finally started some other shit. So that's important to have...
"I was never high level, yet I still ran around trying to help everyone to the point that I never even got my OWN plot running untill the eventual Raid. I was even questioned why was I helping the new folk Constantly"
You and Ajion, and... er... that russian girl under my plot... were definitely as helpful as you could be, and a few people once-in-awhile helpful. Your the one that answered all my annoying, constant questions. I'm definitely grateful for being taught the game by you. But still, it had gotten to the state I said it had, so I'd still be worried it be similar... but again, there's the hunger adjustment, and other differences. So maybe not.
"I am sorry to hear that you died before the raid due to it"
I didn't die, I was logged off or something during the raid. Currently I'm still at Brodgar with Alluemese. But everything on my plot had been destroyed (house, everything in it, etc), and since it had been incredibly difficult to make due to the things I mentioned, I was pretty damn pissed.
You know, I think I'm just pissed about the raid still. I think if everything I had worked on hadn't been destroyed I would have eventually settled in good and eventually gotten everything I needed to run alone and been happy. I mean, I LIKED helping out, I LIKED the place, yes I would have definitely preferred a bit more help at the start (like a backpack), or if not that, then some time off to finish my house and paliside... but I never even had the thought of complaining until the raid... and every other issue it seems you have solved with your new place or the game mechanics (i.e. wood being so far away, starvation, etc) so I think my blame is a little over exaggerated and/or misplaced. I should probably be bitching out the raiders, since they're the ones that wrecked everything.
Speaking of which, everyone had left before I was told much about the raid... do you guys have names of the raiders, or anything?
