One Hour One Life Forums

I didn't read all but I just wanted to say that I wish there was a way to make a gate that only people with yum higher than 5 would pass. No noobs would eat our precious yum foods anymore.

I'm not sure if Jason reads forum during the weekend. I think it will be fixed on monday.

Sry, but that sounds like another tool for grieffers. They would place it outside gates and you wouldn't be able to get rubber.

Btw, I wonder how long an arc would last if it had no grieffers at all. I kinda feel like it's up to grieffers when we get an apocalypse.

That would be too long, some people learn very fast. Basically new players should learn basics which are making fire, farming, cooking and smithing. Also telling new people about onetech.info is great idea since it opens the way to learning alone.

I would increase the time to 4 or 5 hours. 2 hours may be too little since often a mother has multiple new players and in most cases you can only effectively teach only one player at once.
Removing 5 lives thing also wouldn't be bad idea. Beginning towns are the hardest part especially if there are multiple new players. New players would lose their 5 lives in minutes if they were spawned in very beginning towns.

What if let's say you find 10 people that never curse other people? They don't know how cursing system wotks, they don't want to curse for any reason. Will grieffers be always safe of donkey town because of that 10 people? Will that 10 people give birth to grieffers more often than regular players that cursed out the grieffers?

You can do this by writing on a paper

"Content Change

Basket of bones no longer containable, because grave movement tracking rides with player, and isn't tracked when the baske passes through a cart or other container..."

Uh, cleaning town from bones may be painful

It's not the arc end conditions bad but greffers are. Grieffers feel safe, punishment is almost unnoticeable.
miskas' brilliant replacement for Donkeytown actually didn't work and made greffing more common. One grieffer can easily kill whole town and that happens very often. I think that's the reason apocalypses happen that often.
How to fight grieffers? IMO perfect system would be where we could watch replays from whole gameplay and report players directly from there. Something like cs go overwatch. It won't probably happen since it would be lots of coding to implement this.
For now I think we should come back to donkey town system and people that deserved going there should be there for at least 3 days. There is no workaround for grieffers other than punishing them.

Sad story.
Once I found a grieffer that destroyed kilns, I stabbed him. After that someone came and stabbed me back immediately for stabbing someone, he did it so fast I couldn't even explain why I did this. Sometimes life is tough :D

They didn't succeed so why are you complaining. It's not end condition toxic but people are. People want reset because many of them enjoy playing in past engine pump towns more, in towns where you accutaly need to fight for surviving. To me the most enjoyable is when everyone in town is working, sadly many people stop working once they have food and engine pump

I didn't know punishment is that low and I believe many people didn't know it either. Once they realize this we may see more grieffing than ever before.

At the beginning I thought area ban is fine, but now I don't like it. I wish people with some amount of curses were being sent to donkey town for at least 5 days. If it was up to me I would probably sent them to donkey town for 5 days if it was their first time and 20 days every next time.
Cursing strength would be useful too IMO to prevent some situations.
And also I'm for removing inter-family cursing.
