Born in to a badly griefed town...

Man, this last life was a doozy. And maybe I *will* get on discord after that. It would have helped a lot. Anyway. I was born in what seemed like a nice enough town and my mom was so glad to have a girl, she had just turned 40. You bet I was going to live! I'd make the most of this just for her!

Anyway. I do my normal baby stuff set a home marker, try to water the berries... no bucket hmm. Try to hoe carrots, no hoe. Then I look at the bakery, someone turned it in to a kiln. (this has got to be the dumbest "grief" ever it's not even enough to make me mad, because it's so easy to fix) So, I say "I'll fix this" and break it with a pick ax. I think the griefer was not very bright because it was only after I did that and fixed it (and walked away for a bowl of water) that he broke both with the ax which had been right there all along, so I think he saw me do that and it gave him the idea. Man a player who really knew the game would be a scary griefer. Not this guy.

I realized the griefer was still around and I was the only girl who could have kids. Obviously, he would try to kill me as the final move to kill the town. I was so glad I had set a home marker already! My mom gave me a backpack so it was easy to just run run run. While I was gone I found two iron mines and filled my basket and pack with iron. The village had none.

All of the other people in town were very old. So, I stayed away long enough for them to die. Then I came back and it was empty except for one uncle. A pack was sitting there with knives in it so I snatched that up. And looked around for the rest of the weapons and hid them (Jason could we get a way to unstring a bow please?) I still don't know if it was him or my other uncle. I had my little iron find and I set about getting things going again. I looked behind the trees. Griefers are so predictable. It turned out we had PLENTY of iron and this guy hid it all.

Then I started having kids and remarkably they mostly stayed alive and seemed pretty smart. I wish I could have done more to help them find out who it was, but my two uncles look much to much alike and have similar names and it would pain me to curse the wrong person, let alone bring a chain of curses on the wrong person.

The hoe, two buckets, TWO bellows, the shovel, a pile of iron, a pile of  steel all hidden behind trees. But my family kept going despite this cowardly sabotage and I'm so proud of them for that. My daughter didn't flinch and had the bakery back to normal. As I explain in another thread most of what griefers do is easy to correct. The real harm they cause is more emotional: you wonder what you did wrong to make someone so angry that they would throw that kind of tantrum? I know I did nothing I wasn't even born.

Anyway. Running is smart (I know a bow battle would have been more dramatic, but my goal is all about LIVING that is the bottom line for me, so if you are old I will simply wait for you to die.) I think if you are a girl in an empty town and you see the signs of griefing RUN.

Oh I see now it was "Timmy Forest" and he killed my mom. Yeah. I needed to run.

Re: Born in to a badly griefed town...

Hi! I was your daughter and I'm really happy I got born to you and could help this town out!

The hoe, two buckets, TWO bellows, the shovel, a pile of iron, a pile of  steel all hidden behind trees. But my family kept going despite this cowardly sabotage and I'm so proud of them for that. My daughter didn't flinch and had the bakery back to normal. As I explain in another thread most of what griefers do is easy to correct.

Yes... He actually hid even more buckets, but really was not very smart. He put a whole cart of buckets behind a maple tree. I decided to put up floors before making klins and oven so later its easier to make a building!

The real harm they cause is more emotional: you wonder what you did wrong to make someone so angry that they would throw that kind of tantrum? I know I did nothing I wasn't even born.

This.

But seriously, cleaning up after griefers is not that hard. took me about 20 mins to make plates, get sheep back, fix klin and oven. If the griefer was smarter, It could take more than a hour. Back when eves could spawn into towns, fixing a dead town was a hard task... and this life was nothing compared to that. I'm glad to have helped!

Oh - and to the griefer - don't take it personally, I bully all griefers and I try to be equal when it comes to that. I just happend to lurk on discord atm and see you flexing about it, that's all.

Re: Born in to a badly griefed town...

I was your granddaughter Misty Hopped on when I heard about the griefing on discord and that y'all were the last fertile female. Was hoping I could help out a bit, either in reversing damage or just staying around to pop out babies.

Unfortunately it looks like the lineage died a few gens later thanks to suicides. It's annoying af, but at least it didn't fall to griefers.

Re: Born in to a badly griefed town...

It was wild that the kid was on discord bragging about this and he did all of the most basic stuff ever. Almost like he read one of the posts here about about how to spot griefing and just did all of those things. I'm happy with how it all turned out and I was lucky to have smart kids and grandkids like you! Too bad /die spammers brought an end to it all.

Well, spice of life is, griefers often get their karma.
There are plenty of pretty lives to life by. That sounded like a wild ride you had there, futurebird.
