a multiplayer game of parenting and civilization building

Fight back, it’s not that hard. Being murdered is an issue in an environment where crafting a knife only takes almost 10 minutes
you're just a complete piece of shit is what you are. You completely wiped out that civ for no goddamn reason. If it is over populated people should migrate, which is exactly what I did.
What you are is a sociopath who likes to hurt people for amusement.
I in fact, came back to see if there was excess population I could bring to a new civ site. That's the ONLY reason I came back, was to try and convince population to leave.
You killed me, an old woman, when you were the only person left. Why would you do that? What good did that serve?
Being angry that I killed you is not how you discuss with people. Have some respect. Hurling insults is not productive at all.
Anyways.
Migrating is not always a viable option. When it is it doesn’t work a lot of the time, and you have to go back to the old civilization to get tools and such.
I killed you for reasons outside the game. What good does that serve? That’s a good question. For all I know you could see a lot of bodies on the ground and think I’m the murderer then kill me. Also, a bear did come I believe and ravaged a large part of the town (albeit before that current life).
I’m sorry if you were mad, but seriously you were like 56 years old and had no life left in ya. Killing you just saved the farm from being eaten more.
See the other side, don’t be hotheaded when it comes to issues that affect you personally.
Yeah, Towns should be grateful that you frequently massacre them for the lols. A totally sound argument, I don't have a clue why anyone would disagree.
Yeah. I don’t do it every life, hell no. Only about 1/10 games I’ve ever played involved killing someone/people. It’s only for people who can’t check their own population and don’t commit infanticide do I have to kill people.
I’m all in for massive population IF everyone puts in the energy to make a massive farm/several wells to sustain everyone.
Having one old man on the farm while everyone loligags around is not acceptable.
I do realize killing is the final option, thus why I rarely do it. People always complain about their “hard work” being lost even though the most they did was eat carrots and made some clothes.
I’m not seeking extinction of a family, but rather a culling. Have enough women (typically 3-4) to repopulate and have another thoughtful person like me repeat the process if those survivors are careless.
I know other options, like leaving town (happens usually on a single person basis)
Like taking a pie and chilling until majority people die (everything will be ruined, very hard to recover)
It’s ignorant to think that population control is not an option, ever.
In this game, there’s no birth control, no government (like China) to regulate births.
The only way to get rid of people is by killing them.
If people who are thoughtful like me went on a pilgramage successfully, I’m in for that. However the odds of about 3 people all surviving about a 5 minutes run away from the main base is very hard without external communication.
It’s important to not be one sided on your outlook of population control, and see the other side.
I have seen the other side, and I use it on occasion when people put effort into everything! This is a major problem, and I realize learning curve affects this.
The system of controlled reproduction needs to be added or killing is still the only way to do that.

Nope. The smart/aware ones will do what YAHG said.
And besides, it's not "necessary" to save a town. If it's too broken to survive, let it die. Not your problem.
Since you admitted killing out of boredom, I think you enjoy killing and have just found a way to (poorly) justify it.
Letting it die is a poor choice, especially when you have a ready option available to save it.
I was Lachlan.
Needless to say I thought I killed everyone but then you came.
You said you only had one son so I didn’t care.
I only did it btw because spooky Discord people told me to. I misinterpreted them because they on,y wanted males killed. Whoops.
I have admittedly killed civilizations at their infancy and in their high.
I have killed out out of boredom, but after doing it for a while I haven’t done that.
Call me a paychopath or whatever, but killing is still necessary even though cruel.
When I see a famine looming and I warn the townspeople to not feed kids, and they still do, I have no other choice but to kill the parent and kid.
When I see a lack of recourse and someone is hogging it up to make their prized shoe, I will kill them.
I believe this has saved the population of towns that I have been in multiple times.
If you cut the population of women in half and men 1/2 - fully, the town is saved. The recourses are now open to the last survivors without a majority of food sucking people.
I don’t get why people say “why?” when I kill them when they sit by the farm and eat carrots, or eat berries.
I don’t get the opposition of the town-folk that I am evil. A culling of 3/4 of the town will save the town.
I have also done a different way of keeping the town alive. I purge everyone except me (only works if you are a woman) and have kids of your own. Explain to them that I am Thanos, the true hero.
That’s it. People are foolish if they don’t agree the population control is needed once every 3-4 generations.
You’d die because horses are susceptible to snakes/wolfs
I was murdered for the first time ever today. It was kind of hilarious and totally my fault for being dumb.
My mom ran me out into the middle of the woods and abandoned me saying "bye" I managed to run back to the town and stand on the fire with my aunt's baby. She took pity on me and fed me until I had hair. Whe even tried to name me "Mike" even though I was a girl. I was very appreciative and got right to work on the farm. My gramma gave me her backpack when she got too old.
My uncle who was totally a troll making wang jokes, and being generally useless asked for the arrow out of my pack. I asked "Why?" and he said to go hunting.
I was a dumbass and handed it to him saying "Don't murder me." Famous last words... I was 11.
In another life my brother Harry announced himself king and my daughter named herself queen, they made crowns and everything. My daughter named her first son Harry to inherit the kingship, but that had already been promised to another kid. It was decided that he first daughter would inherit her crown as queen.
All was peaceful for about 2 minutes, the townspeople humored them a bit... Then they turned the town into a baby murder cult because they didn't want competition for the next generation of royals... It was completely bananas. They were eventually justly assasinated, the town nearly went extinct for all the murder.
I somehow managed to make it to old age to see it all from the safety of my carrot farm.
A few lives later I had a granddaughter who I'm almost certain was that queen reincarnated. I told her kids to murder her. I hope they listened to their old crazy granny.
Hey! I was the first King Harry! I wasn’t assaninated but the Queen was. I died of old age, giving the crown to the next king Harry. I’m assuming you’re the one that killed the Queen? Anyways, I’m curious to if the town recovered as there was a daughter of the Queen. Also it wasn’t bananas, the only babies killed were the Queens. Not sure how many murders happened afterwards, and even though the killing of the babies was humorous it shouldn’t had led to everyone killing each other. I wonder what happened to the crown as you died before me. Hopefully Harry ruled like a wolf. lol
Hahaha! I was Aurora 5. I didn’t like the whole Aurora thing, but that life was fun. I don’t clearly remember, but the settlement was doing well after your death. I think I made a crown too.
I was born by the fire, my mother giving me clothes. A rich village I thought.
I was destined for great things, as there were many farmers, pie makers, and not enough blacksmiths. When I was older, I crafted my first knife, to keep out the crazies.
I grew up peacefully, alongside my wonderful older sister. You could say she ran the village.
When I was old enough to carry a cart, I was bored. I had an intense flame of ruling the village alongside my sister.
I got a clay bowl, pickaxe that I made, and 2 baskets of my sisters piety to go find gold. I walked for 5 minutes, avoiding hard to see rattlesnakes and wolves. The snow biome I found had gold! I got the flakes and went back to my village, making a crown blank. My sister was proud.
I had to get a wolf skin, so I made an arrow and bow, and went back to a wolf infested area. I killed it quickly, and with the smithing hammer in my backpack, forged a new crown.
My sister was proud, but old, and I knew her time was coming. I was sad to see her go, but I was old too, and needed an heir. I gave it to my youngest adult nephew. He wore it like a wolf, I hope it’s been passed on.
I died peacefully, with no succession crisis or anything. I knew the wolve’s blood would eventually pass on farther down. I hope they kept the next king by the fire.
