Salem

I just had a run-in with a troll, i was within the Providence border on my rowboat, when someone else in a rowboat started following me, i tried to move away but he never let up, attempting to block my path by moving ahead of me..
Already im thinking that this guy is just attempting to anger me by getting in my way, so i started typing in chat, major mistake it turns out.
Before i could finish typing, my boat disappears, and im now in the water.. Wtf? I start swimming back to the shore, and he starts blocking my path again.. Ok, now hes trying to drown me..
So i finally get back to shore and he gets off his boat and runs up to me, but i travel home before he could do any further damage.

Ive got a few simple questions, and i would like someone to explain what the f*ck just happened..

1. How was he able to make my boat just disappear?

2. How is that possible within the Providence border?

3. What was he trying to do, other than drown me?

Ive only been playing a little while, and while i understand that not even Providence is a safe place, i highly doubt making boats disappear is allowed.. it looked like a glitch of some kind.

He probably pulled up and destroyed your boat.

Well.. I guess that explains it.. Why is that possible in Providence though? That should count as vandalism.. at least only while a player is inside it.

First they fix it and classify as a bug, later they re-implement it.
