Rigorous

What does a “heroic character” look like to you?

That moment you realize theres 52 ST members

I am alive!

Why don't we have rules on banditry lmao??

Are they on some random post somewhere? I remember Soulbinds used to count IRP - no one could take a soulbound item. Do Soulbinds even relate to RP anymore? Is it the same rules as stealing from locked chests, with rounded-down stacks etc?

im losing count of how many times staff have failed me

I always thought people talking about actual backstabbing and slandering over a game of blocks were crazy, but now I see what they were talking about...

do i come back - Y or N

well you didn't have to wc balian if you missed me so much could've just said hi  @Nectorist

Final Exams/Projects are almost done. What's one thing that you learned over the past three months that has profoundly impacted you?

Very sad to see a lack of apps after a recruitment drive announced :<

I'M DONE

I just wanted to RP.
That's it.

I wanted to come back to LotC after years of being away.

I get back, and things are okay for a little while, but... then... somebody swats me OOCly three times and runs off.

I spend he next hour IRL looking for food to refill what was taken from the attack.
Within that hour, I was swatted by four more people, and was dropped by the last one.

This last person didn't know how to revive me, so, I lost my items.

I take a week off, because that was infuriating.

I come back, and politely ask people who swat me NOT to.
Nicely.
"Hey, could you not do that? Food isn't free, and I don't feel like chasing health bars."

I THOUGHT that there was some level of human decency.

Enough so that the request NOT to click on me would be listened to.
For a day, it was.

The next day, it seems that everybody got the GREAT IDEA to troll me.
Screw with me.
...and they all got a good laugh out of it.

Do you know who hasn't been laughing?
Me.

It hasn't been funny.
Ever.

I will admit, I saw Simba standing on a wall, but I gave him food, warned him, THEN pushed him.

The issue I'm having NOW is that STAFF has taken up the mantle of 'troll'.

I made a declaration that I would kill anybody who swatted me.
Literally THE NEXT DAY (today), a staff member swats me.
I try to attack them back, but lo-and-behold, they're INVINCIBLE... so...

Not ONLY is there nothing I can do to make it stop, now I have staff in GOD MODE doing it so there's not anything I can do to make it stop.
I can't REPORT them for it BECAUSE THEY'RE STAFF.

I have asked nicely, I have begged, I have gotten angry, I've tried setting PvP timers, making statements publicly, and yet... the "Goon Squads" can't help but "Get a rise" out of me.

"Well, if you didn't react this way, they wouldn't do it."
I'm sorry, are you victim blaming?

I'm literally being attacked in PvP and demanding it stops, and that demand is a "bad reaction"?

You're the only ones laughing.
I'm not.
Process that...
Just... give that some thought...

You're intentionally ruining the experience of another player for YOUR laughs.
You're intentionally causing stress in another human being for LAUGHS.
That's sadism.

What's more is that a STAFF MEMBER did it.
Somebody who could have NOTHING done to them in response.
If that's not 'swinging down', I don't know what is.

I've made my requests, demands, and I've tried making it stop, and it hasn't.

I'm done asking.
So... now I'm just done.

You trolls have just pushed a user out of this community.
Somebody who genuinely enjoyed writing with you all.
...and all because you couldn't treat me like a human being.

Goodbye.

loud minority btw

I’m going to say the P word (PvP)

no ******* way staff is expecting us to build huge keeps and builds in survival right???? they remove pastes and LC plugin isn't ready for "the forseeable future" that is absolutely ridiculous and does not incentivise me to contribute to any vassals/lairs/etc builds because i will spend 10+ hours on a build server with room and infinite resources to make mistakes and undo them in the build, then i will have to spend perhaps double that gathering resources and rebuilding it by hand AGAIN on live with litematica, don't even get me started on terraforming in survival. if this is a continuing occurrence i forsee huge stagnation in terms of scenery on the server

summer is heating up in the northern hemisphere. i think it's time for a reminder to all you pvp-goons out there to take your monthly shower before going out into public! 💖

@excited Please release me from your basement

It's almost like if you get hundreds of introverted and poorly adjusted young adults and teenagers into an isolated environment that it becomes an absolute mess.
