So i was playing and someone spawned in my claim. I checked my kin and no one was there. then all the sudden they appear QWEWREWEW or something like that and start breaking stuff. i changed my hs, unkinned them and another one spawned! this happened 8 times in 8 minutes. wtf? 8 guys all with 'Q', 'W', 'E', and 'R' in their name. is this a virus?

More than likely you have a very common hearth secret. Something like asshole or tits or something and someone just spawning at various common hs's found you. Also, you apparently have no idea what viruses are. lol

Remove your hearth secret and leave it a blank and only use it if you are planning to immediately kin someone.
Destroy all of the unidentified hearthfires around you on your property. To do this without criminal act, you need to have a personal claim around them. This will also protect your items from being destroyed by fresh characters. Note it will not protect it from people with vandalism but that takes a total of 100,000 to learn factoring trespassing and theft.

Once someone gets your HS and spawns an alt near you, they can set their own HS and just spawn tons more. The only thing that will work is what Patchouli said (#2). What you have to worry about is when someone tries boxing you in with fires.

The only problem I can think of is that even if you break their hearthfire, their alts may be logged outside personal claim and may peg you as an easy target to be raided

The big "X" button next to the "quote" and "!" buttons. You can delete a post as long as nobody has replied.

Hmm the exact same thing happened to me with the exact same spelling very odd

my wonder is "destroy stuff" in your claim with a just spawned alt?

So you don't have a claim.
