I've asked you several times not to build shit around the citadel. I realise I don't like... own the land and everyone's free to build wherever they like. But I chose that island/peninsula - way away from spawn - to give me room to build out into. And, as I say, it's not like there's not plenty of open space to go and build in.<br /> <br /> It's not like there's any rules or anything but if someone's started building in what is clearly a quite distinct and remote area then it probably means they either want it remote or have plans for the surroundings. It's just about courtesy for me. I'd at least <i>ask</i> if I wanted to build something in an obviously 'claimed' area.<br /> <br /> Can you please just choose a spot on the map as your own and build there? There's no lack of open space. Or if you <i>want</i> your stuff to be in a kinda theme park area where it would actually fit in and where everyone's building next to each other then choose one of the areas where it's like that, where that's the point.</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=38140.2465&return_msg=38140.2461" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="38140.2465"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a38140_2466"></a><div class="message" id="message_38140_2466"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Mikee<span class="message_time">27 Jul 2011 10:18</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: Drew (X3N0PH0N) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 27 Jul 2011 10:21"></span></span> <span class="message_count">2466 of 3934</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=38140.2466">38140.2466</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=38140.2461#a38140_2465" target="_self">38140.2465</a></div> <div class="message_body"> <p>I chose an area that seemed to be near where everyone seemed to be building - but with enough distance around me not to interfere with anyone else's stuff.

Why didn't you trudge off into the wilderness and build there, why did you conveniently choose somewhere so relatively close to the spawn to start building?<br /> <br /> From the perspective of someone new joining the server, or just someone who is thinking about starting to build something big, it's a really, really annoying to have to wander off somewhere before you can even think about building.<br /> <br /> Like, seriously, in the nicest way possible, fuck that.<br /> <br /> You (by which I mean everyone, including Mikee) shouldn't be allowed to stop people from building anywhere because you might want to build something there yourself, that's very elitist and quite a shitty attitude to have. If you have plans for an area you should have to stake a claim in it by fencing it off.
