Lol... a member of the tribe that helped me in the past told me to follow him and she will get me some food at the reserve *never heard of the place* Seemed fishy to me but i followed her anyway as she helped me before

Anyway get there and there is chests in there so i walk in with her and then they close the gate and say i'm in jail for 1 week for not paying the treaty? lol...

Here is the thing... they say it's a tax and I said no 1 said I had to pay it and lol just.. lol

Just in the pic, she even says *I guess you didn't read it unfortunately*

So apparently I cannot play the game for a week on my main character because of a tax I didn't know I had to pay

Got to love keeping the peace

You are dealing with the Tribe and Tribe law what did you expect. If you don't like the Tribe and their policies read about the other servers and choose one of them.

I feel like even with other servers that would workout in 2 scenarios:

Ronoake: He gets taken out by the Candy Gang for "taking shortcuts" through claims.

Jamestown: He and his girlfriend accept a welcome to the neighborhood gift basket from Darwoth.

Sounds good and erm fyi, i wouldn't take a shortcut lol ^^ i was soo brand new i didn't think it would matter

[Rydersowl]

But you would accept a welcome to the neighborhood gift basket from Darwoth?

You really do need to read the forums more.

He wants fear and freedom a 'gift basket' from Darwoth would do him some good.

Oh the irony of this thread..

The harsh life of Salem, I think it would be fun to live in fear... I preferred this game a lot more a few days ago before I met the tribe, no offence to the tribe it's just... once one of their members told me that innocents haven't been murdered in ages and it's peaceful, it just ruined the game a lot for me

I miss seeing a cricket jump on screen and me just seeing the pixels move and panic as it might be a player but now I realize that the chances of that happening are soo slim and even if they did, it's rare that they would kill me

I play this because it's a perm death mmo and it worries the fk out of you to die but i mean take the perm death out and salem has nothing... Salem needs crime and with the way it works and with the tribe about... you need a lot more players

So i hope they just go and merge all the servers, just merge them all and i hope that a big enough rebellion happens that the tribe are always occupied to an extent where some people can't be chased like in other servers, u murder someone and if you are big enough maybe someone will sort it but 1 off murder... people just cba to deal with and it's just... like i said, what is salem without that fear factor? it's just one hell of a boring game...

feel like i'm playing age of empires and everyone has a peace treaty... boring

***********************
Big important part here that the tribe do not think about...
.
I believe you look at it this way... *With perm death, if you kill a noobie player then... they might leave and u lose players
^ but i mean thats such a narrow way of looking at it...

1.Without giving noobs the chance to be criminals... give them a chance to attack someone and get their ass kicked or win and loot they don't see a goal, I personally wanted to level up with my gf, raid a base and bring it back to mine, try to build a big place that I can hold back any retaliation but having a big group like the tribe who i have no chance against...

2.Without giving people the chance to be criminals... It completely removes that fear factor that makes everything you're doing more valuable, now I build a house and it's like big woop... it's going to be there today and it's going to be there tomorrow, the game has lost all that hardcore feel and it feels like some ***** foot half ass game now

Crime is salem, Crime is supposed to be here and it's one of the biggest parts... why deny an entire server of having that? def your tribe... but do't def me

^---------------

Because i'm bored out of my head on this server... if anyone robs or kills me then so be it, i don't want the tribe to help me <--- This doesn't mean you 100's of humor tribe members should come down and reck my place because that would be bs.. i have 8 of every humor and 20 of health... so give me the fear of playing this game... give it back some fun

At first I kinda felt bad that JJ quit the game. You know, calling for him to be hunted and killed and all. But the more I read this post the better I feel. (Also more confused.)

He mentions being bored indirectly or otherwise maybe 6 or 7 times and then in another thread admits he has been playing this game for a total of 4 days. This isn't a crime or political thread it's one of those terrible Salem sux threads. Which other than for its relevancy to jj fate thread probably should have been locked. (Maybe it could be combined at this point?)

My question to JJ is he is still around reading these threads, is:
- Jason, what the hell were you thinking when you posted this? Why did you even want to keep playing, and why, when the Tribe made the game potentially fun for you, literally by your definition of potential to be killed, you quit?

Makes no sense
