I wish I could memorize these quickly. Although most peeps will probably go like "wut" if I gurgle these out. Sometimes it's so frustrating to have the speech limitation, you have so much time to talk as a baby growing to a child..

My heart bleeds every time someone generalizes "Whites". As a Northern European, it really bothers me.

I also had no idea what it was about, suspecting it was a post saying that someone wishes the eggs they made will keep their son alive.
But I did enjoy your egg son very much.

Ah I see! Well I hope to bump into you one day.

Yes, another thing is that you can craft in ways that are detrimental to the town, such as making ropes from threads that were needed for something else, or making lassoes out of ropes which were needed for something else. Griefing is very easy in crafting games as there are overlaps in recipes, depleted resources and limitations which can lead to dead ends. Often new things that are added make way for terrible griefing opportunities so be ready to pause your gaming around problematic updates.

Remember to curse bad guys. Just say "Curse John Johnson II" for example. Be careful to write it correctly and use the correct number if they had some (the second, the third, etc.). We just got an update week or so ago where you are banished to play 'alone' if enough people curse you. This way the normal players get some peace from the griefers. If someone is murdered, they get a "lineage ban" to the family who murdered them. It's a double edged sword but it can ban griefers from entering the line again. But if a town has like three different families, a lineage ban can be bypassed by being born to the other families in the same town. Also twins, triplets and quadruplets seem to be able to bypass lineage bans too.

Well, I'm 90% sure they wanted to know about this in order to get lots of Yum bonus so they could stab people without having to eat or worry about starving.
I think my chara lived to Old Age with Yum 14 and just few pieces of pie after obtaining that level of Yum bonus.

Wasn't Eve stuff changed though? In addition to spawning to their old towns, Eves now have high chance of spawning into any city and civilization if they just died of Old Age. I know I have spawned into some other Eve's town as an Eve after just dying to Old Age in my last Eve life. So other Eves are constantly reviving other Eves' towns?

Would explain why so many cities have like three families living in them.

Yupp, it's not too easy to differentiate an actual newbie and a griefer/troll playing a role of a newbie. Sometimes you may notice it from the way they move or talk, but surely in many cases some observing could help. Especially if you have zoom out mods, you could hover over some suspicious players for a while, it's worth the time.

I got murdered in a very "straight off" manner just yesterday. A very loud player repeated that I destroyed a kiln in the center of the town. I didn't ofc, I was smithing and had a baby in the midst of it, but she insisted she saw me destroy one of the kilns; I actually don't even know how to, probably with a shovel? I had a hoe or a baby in my hands most of the time there (I had to smith a hoe for my carrot and milkweed farm). I went off with my hoe to continue farming. As I waited for the harvest, I went to gather clay around the edges of the town, finding a needle and thread too. I was going to make new bowls for the place when she ran up to me and stabbed me, still going on about me destroying the kiln (nothing else, still just that). Another villager witnessed this and was very confused, I just cursed the trigger-happy loudmouth and didn't even try to save myself by running to a hospital; I thought, "eh, I'm gonna go live somewhere else then".
If only she had spent a liiiittle bit of time watching over me... I did think that maybe they were an actual griefer trying to cause drama and blame so they can kill people, I was a fertile 23 year old ginger lady after all. Overall their reasoning was ridiculous anyways, though, one kiln? I could've built the kiln with the clay I had gathered if needed (we had 3 kilns, only one got broken).
Chikaima was innocent, may you know that, German Alegre.

I use the exact definition griefing has in Urban dictionary;

1. Purposefully shooting or otherwise sabotaging your teammates in an online game.
2. In online gaming where one repeatedly killing the same individual or individuals over and over again, or camping their corpse to prevent them from retrieving it, or otherwise performing actions in a game to prevent the player from enjoying the game.
3. In online gaming, someone who takes pleasure in creating grief for an opponent via various "cheap" tactics.

I do not consider newbies doing bad things without knowing griefing. They are not meaning to do harm. They are just doing harm unintentionally which is not griefing in my terms.
Now a griefer who does griefing is always doing it to damage the place they are in. It's something that hinders the town or sends it back in development and the griefer does it knowing very well how it damages the place and other players. In OHOL it's usually; killing innocent players (especially fertile females), destroying resources and hiding items. There are other ways too but those are the most common things, and I would also consider many to be in the number 3 category, just cheap tactics.

I don't know what Jason's intentions with PvP is, as all I know is that it was implemented as anti-griefing mechanic which lead to some wars. But as PvP is a pain to balance and build, I have some suspicions if Jason wants to emphasize PvP anymore than what we have.

I dislike lives where I have to act as a guard, I dunno if others enjoy that. It feels like babysitting and listening to drama and people accusing each other of whatever. I don't really want to play police in this game, but that's just me.

I'm probably the only one who doesn't miss the drama at all. I disliked having to stare at a baby for a minute or two to wait for their "F" or "HI" to check the gosh darn speech bubble. It makes my life so much easier and nice when I don't have to do that anymore. Also many expressed their dislike over new moms raising everyone and not "baby testing" at all which caused friction.

I suggest you take time off to play other games.
The game has benefited from the cursed people time-outs. Cities stay around longer so newbies have great chances of learning, which is the biggest thing for me. Cities are great for newbies, not so much for bored veterans.

But yes go and play other games, no game stays fun if you grind it too much.

I'll join in once again.

Elevator music, anyone?

I really loved how they all had such different personalities in the short span of time I had to get to know them. Hooray potatopeople! Thank you!

Wait bro! I gotchu! Take it!
