That is not working as intended, full stop.
Trying to argue that some version of it is ok, is just wrong.

I wonder how hard it would be, to simply prevent building stuff around it...

Write an algorithm that checks if the TbF/TbC is "surrounded" i.e. if you could "walk" like 1k tiles away from it in any way, or if all ways are obstructed, if yes, deactivate/reset the timer until the path is free again.

The "new walls around a TbF/TbC dont cause crime" was too complicated, yea, would have been at least a solution.

Or... 1. cant be built within 100 tiles of any claim or wall 2. nukes all fresh walls and claims within both 100 tiles and in its full area of influence when its built 3. nothing new can be built within 1k tiles around it, except on claims that are at least a week older than it

How is arson not a crime, it seems far greater than a little (unsummonable trespassing), which was the case with your logs.

Besides it could had easily get repaired, since it takes hours & hours to burn down but only seconds to repair / fix the fire.

Aparently Marp was just very generous, I usually do not share reports, but since you showed some logs from Marp that pissed me off:

Let it be clear, it only pisses me off due to the fact that I have never liked any simular "mechanic/exploit", the fact that we had several bases/characters lost to it and then simply claiming its illigal now, shows the usual inconsistency again.

I do not like it when people get treated differently, positively OR negatively in any case. If you guys are seriously shifting that stand on TBC/TBF's, I think me and my friends have some characters/bases to retrieve.

says the guy that has used the developers inactivity to skirt the rules for the last three months starting with moving all your **** onto jorbs island which was first owned by myself and then three or four others after jorb nuked my claim on it, and then nuked theirs.

whos faction creates several floating lillypad vaults with no attack point the way i was forced to do so with my own.

in any case if that was marp who deleted the **** then he must of randomly felt like doing it since walling TBCs and TBFs has been legal and standard across the game since day one that TBF claims were implemented, i once had an impromptu donut of my own that was made from lean tos before you could walk through them deleted which saved another two pack of kzerg clowns. i thought it was quite ***** at the time given that it was a far less effective donut than even an unclaimed wall section, however lailiath whined about it and they were nuked, so by the time i saw the problem she had run away and the scents expired before i could retrack.

reasoning i was given is that it was because lean to's were free and the reason that a townbell donut was acceptable is due to the fact it was expensive, and then later made far more expensive for that exact reason. point is donuting has been a frequent topic here for years and the fact it has been discussed at length in every possible manner during that time to discuss what is or is not allowed should make it quite clear that donuting is a valid tactic, as it should be unless one wants to simply hand yet another aspect over to the ***** of zergy trash players.

likewise a double claim/hovel donut as pictured here has always been legal as well in spite of their low cost compared to a townbell because it is easily defeated by simply extending your town claim over it and domaining the claims in the the 24 hour period you have to do so.

I believe Marp got confused and was mistaken. It's an easy mistake to make with how busy he is. Now, can we end this ridiculous derail? Any further posts off topic will be deleted.
