A black list of known murderers, very interesting! Organized players would certainly consult such a list. Depending on how much it gets filled out, it could shed some interesting statistics on amount of players who actually engage in murder regularly.
Admittedly, I am not one of these people - Had a fellow who tried to kidnap me and take me from my village in a life started a little over an hour ago! I ran back to my family who decided to kill him. I was reluctant as the victim though, and just wanted to talk to him - "What? Why? Where?" after a couple minutes of silence and running away, we eventually got, "no english" as a response from him. The murder was then done, and someone nearby instantly took up a bow and arrow on hearing murder. I had to talk them down explaining they were killing my kidnapper.
My point being, is that while it would be a very interesting reference material, there would be a lot of discrepancy. All murderers? What about those who murder in self defense? Or acting as a town guard? A person who takes this role more often might be more willing to "murder", but do they deserve to be put on the bloody red list? And what happens when two people explain that they were both trying to kill the other for the greater good? Communication can be quite dificult in this game, and misunderstanding murders happen very often. ("why'd you kill that guy" "he killed a guy" "....why?" "idk").
Sorry for the double but I remember the first (and so far only) time I had to kill.
Wandering Eve spawn who found many small abandoned camps before I ended up settling her at a nicer one. Hard busy life, had 4 kids, three male one female. One male died, the other I never saw again. The female was the youngest and worked hard.
The male sat around the fields eating carrots. Not working the fields, just standing around earing carrots. At first I told him to find something to do. He was young and replied "caro""t". Whatever. A few years later I offered to teach him how to compost and properly farm. He wandered off mid explanation. Not for food. He had a basket of carrots I grew...
Years later I see him standing around eating carrots again and doing nothing. I told him to leave if he wasn't going to help. He then started to drag one of our two only (wheel free) carts loaded with carrots and other supplies off.
"No" I stop him and start dragging it back. At this point I'm easily over fifty years old. He goes back and grabs the other, us passing eachother dragging loud awkward carts without wheels. I put mine down and foraged around the old used camp and managed to find it; bow and arrow.
Had never used one before but knew he was a threat to my daughter and the lineage. I followed the loud dragged cart sounds and after awkward control fumbling shot him dead. I was probably 57 at that point and knew I had no time to bring the slow carts back. I sprinted back to town to see my daughter had two kids helping the farm, and was starting to get old too. I told what I could as fast as I could "I had to kill your idiot brother, he was stealing the supplies and never helped."
"Lol"
"Carts are west of town I'm too old". Managed to utter a direction or two to the grandkids before dying....I remember at one point I told him "you're the reason people kill males" - not actually a policy I support but boy was he a dink.
Sorry to thread jack.
I made an account for this thread. Sorry if the message is rough, I'm on a phone.
I was in that town, a larger well organized one. One of the young men characters dug up at least fifty healthy berry bushes people were working. I followed him and watched him then take carts out of town. Life went on, told the other people about what happened and eventually died at a young age on an errand.
On respawn he had come back. He came to the baby incubator AKA fireplace, and kidnapped me. He ran very very far from civilization, and I had morbid curiosity stopping me from resisting. "Ur" "tht" "guy!" I utter as a child.
"Yes I am", he replies. I understood his plan. He was murdering indirectly by taking me far away from mothers and pies and berries. I didn't get to finish saying "am i" "guna"...
..."die.", he finishes my sentence... And within a minute, I do. It was an interesting experience. I wish I was livestreaming it. It is a shame one dirty individual can completely undo the work of many in seconds. Even if there were "armed guards", even if he was killed, the awful damage was done easily. I do not know about hacks but I know it was a shame he had no name, we could only describe his character. Eves, moms, name yourselves. Name your kids.
