Why wouldn't that be allowed. If they wanted to prevent this then they would have made it where you cannot build on top of your own scent. I have seen cases where a pClaim was destroyed and the person used items from the persons claim that was there to slap a pilgrims hovel on top of the scent and then a pClaim down beside it. What is to stop a person from doing that currently? Nothing. So why would surrounding someones claimed scent be invalid.
The actual story of this (probably about to paint a target on my back) is I was walking around and came across a leanto with nothing but a metal ax on the character. I grabbed it built a kiln on top of the scents and walked off. 20 Minutes later Goodman was standing at my front door of my base and when I came out to greet him like a kind karing pilgrim he shot me in the face and then ran after me and started to stab the crap out of me.
I got back into my base and he called me a P***y and said something to the nature of "This is the problem with Salem players all of them are p***ys and afraid of PVP. So after I gather my wits I ran back out of my base and ruffed him up a little. After about 5 minutes, give or take, of going back and forth he had no yellow bile and was obviously very low on blood. So I told him "I was board with him." and walked off. He then told me who he was and that he was KKK. Like a fool I kined him during that time. The moment I logged off I was locked in the stockades.
After bailing myself out I went back to my base and noticed that there was a new leanto right beside my base. Upon inspection I noticed this leanto was wearing some combat gear that was obviously not making the cut for a main raider character but good enough for a BS alt to sit beside a base for later. Most likely this was the setup for a TBC so I put down a headstone on the leanto and destroyed it. I logged off and hoped everything was good.
I logged on the next day to find myself yet again in the stockades so I began to take actions to prevent stockades again including keeping the character on for 48 hours straight (BTW madness was of no issue only gained one level not sharing how I did that just feel like bragging about it).
Per expert advice I went to double check my scents and found the area in the picture with a new claim placed on it and my kiln destroyed with the boxes there to collect scents. I put the donut claims up and covered the scents. Then to ensure that a TBC was not used against me locking me to my claim I took the fast travel guy to the far north. Everyday I progressed myself further west by running at minimum 3 hours to ensure the safety from TBC.
Since then Goodman shows up at my front door every once in a while and knocks asking if I would like to come out and play.
Needless to say I have a new friendemy to play with. (Still working on that character for you to fight with Goodman. Was a great fight cant wait to do it again.)
