I hope people understand that using alt accounts or friends to post to the forums to evade a ban could get themselves a longer ban and/or get all alts or friends banned, too.


For some reason this has been left of the forum rules, so take it as a warning. This will likely be updated in a few days.

griefers or raiders are all larping. otherwise, they are all psycho or criminals in real life.

how does something someone do in a game make them a psycho or criminal in real life? honestly if someone in a game does nothing but peaceful stuff does that make them a pansy? we know each other from the HnH forum(I'm 'ImAwesome' btw) and we both have seen threads there where people are ranting and raving about having thier claims/characters griefed...I don't think I've ever seen a thread on the HnH forum where griefers talked about what they've done and actually RPed it!

also your terms are a bit off larping(Live Action Role Playing) isn't the same as RPing(Role Playing) in a game...larpers are crazy folks, rpers aren't always crazy folks.

Tonky's point is that they are either role playing just by griefing (implying that this is something they'd find abhorrent if done to a real person or property) or some of them might actually be mentally off-balance (acting out fantasies that they have or have not done in real life). I have my opinions about this, but it's the nature of the beast. You can't enjoy the competition in an open world without someone wanting to come along and kick over all the sandcastles down and laugh at everyone else.

well its more fun smashing sandcastles than it is building them...never smashed any I didn't build myself though

I guess I just misunderstood/took his point the wrong way, but yea griefers are having fun in thier own way. its a game it should be fun, but some people take thier games too seriously...and thats the only time griefers really bother anyone. like Kaios said about legos on HnH forum you can tear them down and build again, thats the fun in it. if all you care about is that 1 thing you built then it ruins the game!

so when I say I like the chief's posts its not to piss anyone off. its not like he smashed anyone's pc, or cut thier internet cables, no matter what he does you can always recover and build even bigger or get even stronger. thats the point of a sandbox game, no matter what happens you can always rebuild. :twisted:

Yeah! I'm not a Pansy! I just want to play this way.

But to be honest people have a right to get pissed when handed lemons by a griefer... but only if they intend to do something about it:

(Burning people! He says what we're all thinking!)

If the griefers were left unchallenged their game would be boring. We can't have their game getting boring. That would be animal cruelty.

Aside: Combustible Lemon inspirational, please?

Greetings White Man,
I have returned from my spirit walk and I am proud to present to you the latest scalp. This White Man ran into their home. Any seasoned raider or griefer would know that this is extremely dangerous to follow into a home but luckily I am neither a raider nor a griefer, Just the bringer of Mother Nature's justice. Since this little Farmville white man had 50+ biles it took more than a single blow from my Tomahawk. As such I was left with no choice but to enter the home and finish the job. I am extremely proud of this scalp and appeciate that the white man left over 100 pies in their base for me to glutton on as a reward for my work.

If the game was meant to discourage people from playing, wouldn't that make putting a cash shop on such a game a little moronic?

Not really a judgement call on the cash shop, just one on completely hating on the people who are not in on the grief-and-let-grief mindset.
