These facilities benefit everyone, including new players, and take significant effort and cooperation to build. When a handful of players can wipe them out with no real counterplay, it only accelerates player attrition and damages the world for everyone.
If the only answer is “defend it yourself” against groups far stronger than any normal player can realistically fight, then most community projects will eventually disappear. That’s why people are calling for mechanics that protect key public infrastructure: not for handouts, but to support a living, welcoming world.
No one is entitled to “free q500 water,” but we all lose when community projects become impossible. The game needs incentives for cooperation, not just destruction for its own sake.
So if Lalaxx decided to close the well, is that also an attack on the community?
