Everybody hurts...from their butt

[painhertz]

Cest la vie. that's how I'd handle it. Don't want that done? Everyone gang up on the faction doing the shit and wipe them out.

To be honest that is how the armed forces train their soldiers and weed out the trouble makers - they don't just punish the one person but the whole unit and then let the unit sort out the individual.

Problem with that though because of the messed up siege mechanics if the trouble maker is behind a brick wall the only way to cause him problems would likely require bug using lol.

I have a fix - remove Teleportation, maybe for just a month and see what happens. So instead of taking away all our toys we just take away the one that has been used to hit the other kids around the head with. It would also punish the big bug abusing factions far more then the little guys. I know the Devs want it removed eventually but have not thought up or coded the best fast travel alternative but we are a resourceful bunch and will surely adapt.

Would require a new world. A lot of us have brick walls without gates and would then be stuck in our towns. Permanently.

Abuses are part of the game since I remember and this situation seems to be tolerated by devs which is confusing, cus they decide how bad the abuse is and is it enough, for example, to nuke or not. That makes ppl think some groups of players are under protection of devs, have no information what convince devs to act.

dont you still get it that devs dont have time...?
it should not be tolerated. but it takes time to investigate both to nuke whom and to fix the abusable features.

and it is time you all learn "under protection of devs" is your illusion.
keep on saying that, and they may start feeling like they dont care.

O.o, what sort of an idiot (no offense...OK maybe a little) builds a brick wall without a gate? I know it is common sense not to use your keys but really? Still not like a ram is hard to build to make room for a gate. All in all the Devs have a hard decision to make and a lot of people wont like it - even if they do nothing. It is a hard life being a God because no matter how well you treat your creations they will always find ways to put you down.

Yes really.

Game would suck without teleportation unless other mechanics were added/altered.
I'm all for removing it when the time is right, but that time is clearly not now.

[TeckXKnight]

It leaves a bad taste in my mouth that the primary argument against testing things is because of the excessive use of game meta versus the lack of features to compliment and facilitate such testing.

[Patchouli_Knowledge]

And there is the "They are doing so I should too." argument, even if it is based on the thinker's assumption whether it is true or not. Some simply do not care.
