By suggestions For example: apply karma system

I've just searched an Internet to find out, if my father told me fairytailes
Drunk Amish carried home
Drunk cowboys not always carried home. Only, if horses treated well. They could also abandon you
And one drunk cowboy did not carried home. Police interrupted horse attempts

As hilarious as it sounds, it seems true

I warned, system punish for griefer, which is lineage ban, will force Jason to rewrite it all the times, as griefers will be adapting to it. Currently, the best adaptation is to buy a second account

The concept of souls/karma would release developer from this burden and give it to players. Yet, Jason, usually so prone to make players solve problems on their own, is hesitant here

We still don't have domestic horses

1. Domestic horses tend to follow humans. They like us
2. More wild horse races are more likely to run away. Then, you must find the leader and bring it back home. Others will followe ( I know this from this blog . But still, they just like wide area and search for better grass, they do not avoid human.
3. Domesticated horses are known to go back to stable when are free to go. People used it to their advantage, as they could drunk sleep in the cart while horse carried them home. I know this from the father, who worked with horse plow a long time ago.

While we still not breed horses, their current behavior is OK. But domeaticated horses should be more menageble.

The numbers for Bushman and Ache are only about intragroup violence.

If you are lonely, yes. But tyrann usually has supporters. Even if you kill tyrann in sleep, it is still suicide, as his supporters will get you.

Especially stone age society, preagriculture, can support warriors

You see, completly the opposite than philosophy of this game, hunter gatherers are putting much attention not in finding food. It's easy for them. They focus on not eating too much and not eradicate the area. Modern hunter gatherers work only 2 hours a day.

It would be the same in this game: if milkweed would regrow, so wild carrots, people would feel advancing technology is dangerous. We would apply sustainability rules, like it was when milkweed was regrowing only when fruiting, when there were no wells, like it is currently with rabbits.

It happened many times, a tribe was getting on advancement path during paleolit. But it all finished the same: advanced tribe eradicated area, famine started, tribe was killed during fights with wiser neighbors. Agriculture changed this pattern.

Potjeh, you're point of view on violence in stone age is basically wrong. Societies before civilization were much more brutal. There were a few crimes where an criminal can hide. Violence was tradicional and commited by rulers.

See the first picture. Hugging must require acceptation of second player. You cannot just hug everyone.

I am sure there will be people hugging all the time. Which will create baby boom and mass starvation or famine. There will be couples starting reproduction lately after basic camp established, ending with 2 boys and argueing they did not start earlier. There young will be young females left alone as all their family is gone. There will be Lot and his daughters. There will be drama

Also, spawning as Adam and Eve will require basic cooperation. At least to not loose your partner!

Much. Birth control is one side, female action. Sex needs 2 to accept it. Add genetics and you got marriages, cheating and biological fathers

Introducing new buttons would be much more confusing And think: every player after live as a kid would know, picking up baby is different from breastfeed. They would find a solution quickly, as all actions are possible only by mouse buttons.

How often does it happen to you, a killer puts his weapon right next to you, especially if you hold an arrow. Maybe he had reason for killing and now he wants to talk to you?

If you are afraid of griefer, everything is griefing for you

This is just a simple paint work. I'm sure, Jason would polish the look

The problem is easy to solve, or at least to minimize. Add sexual reproduction to the game.
1. First spawn Adam, them the next player on the server would be its Eve
2. Add hugging. If male and female hug each other, Eve starts a counter during which she is ready to gain a new player.

Simple. Children are now precious, because there are two steps to gain one. No gatling-child for new Eves in the wilderness, which ends with fertility ban when basic camp is established. And, because people need to hug each other, they need to build relations and communicate. Imagine consequences and complexity of behaviors possible with this one change. Real marriages, divorces, cheating, no roleplaying. It would also increase a value of a man, as they are also needed for procreation. And it ads very important thing: fathership.

This simple change would be a step to further tweakings:
1. Add hugs as the precondition for breastfeeding. So everybody can carry kids (and fertile woman can put baby away for a while and pick it right after without hunger fear), but only fertile woman will be rewarded with breastfeeding sound and animation, if they decide to click on carried kid again. No breastfeeding during running!
2. Add hugging for babies. Imagine two youngling giving each other warm over ashes, waiting for father to return, because mother just died!
2. Spawn options: as a couple or as twins.

EDIT
hugging suggestion

Plow, very fine. But without domesticated horses?
