This town was a lot better then the previous one, Just a better experience overall. The town was thriving and everyone seemed decent, No drama or toxicity. My Mother named me Dave and gave me the job of blacksmith, I quickly located the forge area and got to work.

Someone had recently brought a huge load of iron ore, I spent my childhood processing everything into nice steel bars and my adult life making tools. I made an Axe, Hoe, Steel File, Bowsaw and a flint tapped bowdrill (Freshly made, If you convert the current firebow straight into flint tapped burn in hell) . Also shears and a couple handcarts.

I upgraded a few shallow wells to deep wells and made sure to make a spare bucket. There was a girl asking for my backpack but I gave my stuff to my brother who was naked and had helped me alot.

Big thanks to my brother who actually helped me by bringing firewood and various other things.
We had alot of males but we worked had and I always had the resources I needed.

Thanks for changing my mind about towns, They aren't all bad.

Hey I was Judd, most of my life i was trying to be useful by farming. I spent the majority of my 30's burying my mother and marking her grave in this pretty area northwest of town. My little sister meanwhile was raising kids and silently seething I guess. When I came back from burying my mother, i noticed that Heloise had been murdered! If I had stopped my sister from making the bow and arrow, im sure Heloise would still be alive. It was so sad. I confronted her with the bow and she ran off. I needed to put down the bow so i tried and, shot a baby by accident but my niece and the baby laughed it off. I felt so bad. I confronted her again, and she told me it was because of all the noobs(?) and that she was mad that she had to work naked(???).

I spent a lot of my life out in the wilderness getting stones for a well, or clay, or as of my last trip rabbits and thread, I got enough to make a new backpack which I gave to a kid and I gave my backpack — before I died of old age — to one of the women working in the farm. By the time I died there was half a backpack ready up near the where the rabbits were.

We never spoke but I do remember seeing you a few times. Too bad Murder and Drama happened after I died, Too many people salty about not getting gear. Maybe it was the lady that wanted my shit when I was old, I gave to someone I felt that earned it.

As for noobs, Everyone I interacted with seemed pretty solid so I'm not sure. Being naked isn't the worst thing, clothing is a privilege not a right.

Honestly backpacks were more important than clothes in that instance since they cost the most to make, best to get those out of the way first- those extra inventory spaces save lives! But honestly? Up until I died I was the only one making clothes/backpacks, we didn't even have a snare at one point, I made one whilst I was out in the wild getting clay for my mom Izabella Pen, found a patch of milkweed and had my sharp stone on me whilst a straight branch was nearby.

Folks really shouldn't be fighting over clothes especially since they degrade anyway, killing someone over that is stupid, just means less people to the run farms and other vital parts of the town!

take the furs i prepare and give to a random noob kid

mistaked him with a goose cause had dirty mouth
would of died in 10 min just like the rest

leave all carrots watered with no intention to pick it, with no space near it, thats not farming, its greiefing, should of shoot you
got like a few minutes time from babysitting, random leftover nameless kids chasing me
and every tard in full gear, the reed skirt changed owner 5 times
while i extend the pen and everything i prepare its taken
if you cant run a city dont bitch about others doing it

good that you didnt gear up the berry eating robot
fixing all the shit pisses me off, so if bitch talks back i shoot him

dont gear fricking babies

put clothes down or give one piece each, gear ones that deserve it, and at least ask someone adult if needs a pack, turned half city around and at 45 had some time but everybody still gearing kids
other life i seen this "protect this knife" i swap pack and stab the lil bitch, was the same knife i made to kill sheep, and gave to a compost maker, not keeping as family treasure

You didn't even mention someone giving you a backpack before they died. ;.(

Next time I'll give it to someone camping the berry farm, least they might be more grateful.

Oh where the old dude that gave me your stuff. Sorry, I forgot about you.

I never really knew you but I did appreciate the stuff, You were old so I just assumed you were unloading it on me because I was there.

I'm glad you gave it to me and not some berry scrub.

I generally pay close attention to everyone's behavior. I get around the village a lot and can see when people are working hard and making positive contributions, standing around on the desert farm just eating, or worse, standing in the cold and just eating; you eat 2 to 8 times more if you are cold than you do if you are warm, and it makes a BIG difference to the rate that the settlement goes through food, soil, water, iron and worse, people. Far as I'm concerned that point should be emphasized with every post on this forum, but I digress. I highly appreciated your contribution as I was one of the people who brought that iron home. I guess I was also one of the only ones hunting rabbits as I managed to make a backpack with each visit to that colony and every time I came back the snares were in the same place I left them in the prairie, until finally, the last time, I just brought them home along with five extra rabbits.

Thank you for turning all that iron into steel. I wound up using the last of it later to make replacement tools; chisel, shovel, hoe and mining pick which I used to start an iron mine just 5 screens ENE of town. It was a nice place. Also worked on a road to a potential expansion NW where there were lots of cacti and a few ponds, north of what is/was the graveyard west of town.

Whoever decided to make that GY on the grassland, please, if you can, make things like that on Badlands if possible. A graveyard is almost sure to expand if people care enough to bury and mark graves, and a graveyard on a grassland almost insures that useful trees like Maple, Poplar, Yew and Juniper are going to be cut down. This guarantees future strain on a village when, especially Maple branches, are needed to replace tools. Please do not sprawl onto Grasslands. First place to spread out should be on Desert, after that, spread onto Swamp so that farms are nearest to water. And allow the oven and smithing areas to remain on the edge of the desert and grassland where they have access to branches for kindling and tools. It's okay to cut down swamp trees, at the moment they only serve to hide ponds, reeds and deposits of clay. They do not play a role in any other process, except maybe to conceal snakes or weapons. So clear those areas and use that wood for boards and fire.

Even today I saw a prominent Youtuber mention that people should not be cutting down trees in the swamp. It's bad information. Many of you know better but in order to reduce the amount of misinformation floating around it's always good to remind people of things like this when we see it, or just provide the information regularly for the steady trickle of new players coming into the game and onto the forums.

Thanks again for this post Neo, and thanks again for your hard work. Even though you spent most of your life in town, you earned that stuff.
