Yep. I was a fertile female, Jess, and died post-Cherry (who swore he'd come back and get me) of starvation. I made all three of those stews you would have found. Me and another woman made many of those pies and never got to cook them, because in the chaos, the fire had gone out. I tasked a guy to go and get material to make fire. The fire was almost lit when I had a baby. I hesitated, which I shouldn't have, to explain to the son I just popped out that I would starve if I picked him up right now, and didn't have time to run back to the food before I died.

I assume a similar fate befell the woman making pies with me.

Joke's on Cherry, he didn't get me.

The woman you linked to, whose last words were "Pads!", both me and another man were there at her death, desperately trying to grab the medical supplies in time. In sync we both screamed NO! It was very dramatic. One of the most entertaining short-form RPs I've been part of, I kinda don't hate griefers for that very reason.

I love it.

If I spawn into a larger town, I usually spend my life running around cleaning other people's shit up. Collecting dishes that have been abandoned away from the cook zone, etc. I often start milkweed farms and run around yelling at people to stop eating the last damn berry off a domestic bush. I have been yelled at for starting milkweed farms in berry mega-centres, where it would be JUST FINE to spend the dirt on milkweed if people wouldn't eat the damn last berry off the bush when there's 4 pots of stew and a dozen pies and half-completed tacos and so on and so forth... I got murdered once for telling someone to not eat the last berry. -_-

I also try to make aprons and backpacks for people if we're short on them, and other storage. I make a lot of carts, but I never make a cart if I can't take it all the way. If there's lots of clothing lying around, I try to make dye. I try to always have mismatched shoes if I can pull it off, but I don't prioritize footwear.

If I'm in a newer gen, I almost always end up collecting eggs and making omelettes. Unlike some assholes, I don't put flat rocks on the blacksmith's fire, or the only fire.

I roll with whatever roleplay I venture into or accidentally come up with, which means I've played a ton of archetypes, and I'll do whatever job I need to for that town/village/Eve start. Like seriously, if no one's cooking, whatever, I'll cook. I have been charged to be the medic, crowned royalty, given a knife to protect the village, told to slaughter sheep, feed sheep, find iron, whatever. I don't think I have a favorite job but I definitely have things I slip into doing if there isn't an obvious job that needs filling.

Yet many times I've found myself in villages rich with food, and I am the last player, a guy or too old to have children, and I'm making food and no one ever spawns. And when there were childbearing women, someone came in and murdered kids and said some bull about how there wasn't enough food.

I let my kids decide if they want to live or die. They aren't actual children, they are other players. If they don't want to live in the situation they spawned into then they can suicide.

Having a competent male player born early as an Eve is a huge boon, honestly. And if that guy ends up running the camp, well, he's not spawning in tons of new players so he can actually take time to mentor. There's a place for guys in game, so I don't hold with the 'kill all boys' strategy.

I've already been cursed as a baby and then abandoned purely because my mother wanted to "test the new update". Yeah...

I understand why you might be wounded by being victimized by a social experiment... but wait, it's not you who was griefed!

Looks like trying to apologize was worth it after all.

There's room for learning in more than just the game. Apologizing, acknowledging your mistake, doing whatever you can to right the mistake, and then moving forward in life by being less shitty is the way. No one's perfect, mistakes were made. There's no backtrack button. However, there is a way to right this wrong.

If you respawn into the town, get a pig domesticated to finish Steve's untimely ended work.
