I request that Mound Bed Have the radius removed

I mean you made a season and then basically cut it off at the knees.

Would also like to request that Garden Pots not work in Winter, or at the very least, will need to be moved indoors during winter.

I do not agree. I find the option to use mound beds is increasing my enjoyment of the game in a season I otherwise would not bother to log on for.
Those that want pure winter have the option to not build mound beds.

I understand where you are coming from. And most, if not all, will do just that. My main consternation with this is the fact the reason why Winter was implemented in the first place. To give the Farmer the break and do other things. Honestly, there have been those who stated that there should be a "northern" area which is all/mainly winter and winter not even touching the middle and southern parts of the map. I agree with this logic as well. Just bogles me as to why have this if you implemented the season in the first place.

I remember some other thread having a hard data suggesting that winter doesn't even make players "take a break from the game" but rather "quit the world."

Didn't snail DDOS the server at the start of winter to try to manufacture this data this wipe, and get his house nuked by Loftar? Lol

Nothing cleaves the player count like winter. If you take notes on hermitage activity, about half will cease with winter and never return. It's a shame because the snowfall asthetic is amazing. I wish the season lasted longer without the impact on player count.

With mound beds it's hard to object to winter. I think it's quite nice. The only complaint I'm really aware of in the mound bed world is I understand some PvPers hate it because they don't get guaranteed critter escapes in winter.
