Ok Gomez PVP implies people are battling it out for resources or clout or whatever, we have an entirely separate element of teams that are dedicated to ragegriefing because we're mad about the designer's attitude toward criticism. I say we, because I joined one for the rift event, which was so unsuccessful that initially it got nothing but protest and after a length of time Jason eventually had to walk it back and pretend it had always been meant to be temporary. There are other veterans on the board who have been here since before an actual PVP dynamic was introduced with warswords who became protest griefers and went on murder sprees to prove the existence of something called "the griefer dance", a pattern of constant movement that would allow a player to murder others with impunity while making themself essentially immune because of bad game design, which took much longer than it should have to get a response.

In OHOL specifically, and I have only ever seen it in OHOL, players get mad at the designer's out of game behavior and then terrorize *other players* with a completely out-of-game purpose, irritating the designer by chasing other players away from the game. Other players can't do much about them and there are no moderators. Other players become an object that a greifer is using to try to hurt the designer. At no point in minecraft history did a significant number of players team up to drive playerbase away from minecraft with the goal of upsetting Notch after Notch repeatedly handwaved criticism of broken elements in minecraft exploitable by griefers that made it an unpleasant experience more often than not. That actually is a unique toxic element to OHOL.

my first favorite is farming and cooking, something about making food makes me feel very helpful. Next favorite is making clothes. Nobody likes to have their pp out, I feel I have helped everyone a lot.

I tend to organize instead, though, because there's usually already a cook. Even though I know this task is actually really helpful (losing too many plates can eventually kill a town) I feel unhelpful, but I almost always seem to spend my lives doing organization tasks; ie bringing stacks of plates back to the kitchen for baking, checking the outskirts for clothes and bringing them to the baby room, bringing wood to fires, cleaning up areas that are just carpeted with stackable items for no apparent reason. It's kindof restful and it seems to help my families.

Despite all the naysaying I actually do think this would probably ensure more experienced leaders, genetic fitness score is effected by how well you keep your relatives alive. Even though there are x factors like someone else's griefing that can temporarily knock an experienced player to a lower score, it would lock out griefers themselves, since they don't care about living to old age and have the goal of killing their own relatives, so they will always have a low score. They'd have to adapt their strategy to either playing several rounds without encountering another greifer or a town run by a poor leader to get a high score before becoming king/queen to grief, which would probably bore them shitless and discourage most, or to waging wars to greif as king/queen instead.

I like the way you think

imagining some ancient soldier whipping out his figurine of his ultrathicc chonky GF and shedding homesick tears rn

if anything decrease curse token regeneration time so we can do more about grief squads

ok I have to be clear here the old murder system absolutely was an issue and if he gives it back you're going to remember why it got changed

just about every lifetime was either a murder victim or genocide victim lifetime depending on how advanced your civ's tech tree was when the first greifer got into the kitchen and started running around on the outskirts of town murdering all your hunters so any bows were out in the woods somewhere so that they could mosey in and have a good old fashioned genocide without facing resistance for at least as long as it took for someone to make a new knife or bow

AUGH NOOOOOOO

I really like this idea, but there has to be a way to cancel out a blessing somehow or the greifers will be able to abuse this easily just by cycling productive activities with griefing

if painting and dying were easier I'd paint and dye everything honestly

just like in life, not all decisions are utilitarian choices made soely about function. some of the joy in life comes from simple decisions like dying your shirt red.
