kimbuck 746 Posted March 13, 2019 Coined by Dr Seuss in his Lorax story. These are people(? ) who arrive solely to see what they can destroy or disrupt then immediately go offline never to return. They do not want to become part of the game etc, they just "think" its clever to be an a$$#0!3, ... and its all they can do. Sadly, we have had another player leave our friendly server for a while because one such social misfit raided his base and took everything worthwhile. I am used to it now ... i expect to find my storage broken into and items stolen and replaced with grass, stones resin and wood pieces etc... and its always why i hide a predator in the foyer areas of my dwelling ? ..or fit a hidden Tesla coil somewhere! I have had some "idiot" clean out my help area stores and then either dump the contents at sea or bury them somewhere....... so that's why i don't make such areas anymore. All my doors/ships are locked...or have keys available, because if not, some pea-brain will make a key and lock it for you. I have even had to replace workstations that have been padlocked by these nit-wits ...not a big deal if they are under a barrier, just a waste of a few seconds of time. I am sure the biggest storage files on some servers are those that have the ID numbers of banned trolls and such. But then what else can you expect from people in the world these days? I used to play in a community band, and at every public performance there was always some half brain who tried to lob objects into the tuba players instrument ...and surprisingly the worst places to perform were in the campuses of universities where the future intelligentsia would act like spoiled pre schoolers... Unfortunately, its something us responsible, sensible and socially acceptable people will have to put up with ..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1ZombieFan 6 Posted March 14, 2019 I'm half tempted to try multiplayer just so I can build a house full of spiked traps. They should make some sort of defense system like turrets, tripwires, and landmines. That way you logout you know atleast you have a chance at saving your stuff.

Miguel Preguisa 443 Posted March 14, 2019 Always have one lever put next to your locked doors on a display connected to Tesla coil instead. Pulling it may not open the door but the outcome will definitely shock them 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimbuck 746 Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) I had a ship stolen ..unfortunately i parked it with part of the stern outside the barrier and they simply placed there a new helm and anchor, effectively removing mine under the barrier! They then sailed my ship out to sea and dismantled it, scattering bits on the ocean floor. Their idea of "lulz" My response wast to make another ship outside the barrier...but i didn't use a ships keel ...just made "cladding" to look like one ... hahah ..it was a dummy ship and yes...a tesla coil was connected to the anchor switch. In the following 4 days it fried 3 wannabee hijackers. The bodies had nothing on them when they dropped, they were all new arrivals. But then, i am there for the game and fun, i don't want to become like these "once-lers"? Edited March 14, 2019 by kimbuck 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
