I cant take credit for this, a friend came up with it
When building anything you can port to, make it that an area of 8 tiles around it that cannot be built on, and nothing can be placed on.

You can just fill the 8 tiles with alts/dead bodies.

yeah like the devs are gonna read this..they dont come here any more; this is aimed at the people who can get to them
And re alts and bodies... bodies are dissolved and no one can port to it if there are people filling the squares. doesnt stop normal use because no one using it normally would stand 8 alts there

Cant be used as in switched off

8 tile radius for crossroads? No thanks.

Anyway sounds like a decent idea for charterstones. One problem though. Any quickfix to charterstones would have to be applied to village idols as well. The most obvious option is to do to them what was done with crossroads concerning things blocking, but that would make idol griefing very easy to do. Would cause a lot of problems of its own.
