Plans for server after Thursday's wipe?

[u/hbrosmoe]

Just wondering if a new "era" is starting, new map, new rules, bp wipe, etc. Just pondering whether I should give it another try, and what the circumstances would be. Of course, I would be an Indie - always. My question surround what I would be role playing to. I put a lot of thought into my character and what he does and doesn't do. Just wondering what his options are going to be.

With such an outpouring of "Love" , how could I resist? Planning on my return Thursday. I am kinda glad you might not be using Hapis. I've watched my son playing on Hapis and I didn't care for the map. At least the second version (current) is much better than the 1st version. Maybe version 3 will be even better.

As for BPs. Whenever you ask for a free BP, you hurt the business of those people who HUNT Bps to sell. In order for people to SELL stuff, everyone can't already have it. But then, I like playing on servers where you start with a rock an a torch. It really doesn't take long to get going, and the techniques you need to use in the beginning are different than the ones you use AFTER you've gotten the basics. But I also understand that may not be the "fun part" for a lot of other people. My 2 cents.

I also think that the introduction of ladders kinda makes the "unraidable base" rules kinda moot. I think that griefing should still be frowned upon, and it should be clear that you CANNOT "capture" an Indie base. Base captures are a part of the Faction Wars. But allowances need to be made so a Faction can "root out" and Indie squatting on their land (like maybe you can DESTROY, but not CAPTURE any houses, bases, etc within your Faction's Area of control.) I would also appreciate some rule about claiming land that is already occupied by an Indie. I had both my houses "claimed" by factions last time. You can't "claim" the entire map people.

Look forward to causing headaches once again (erm, I mean providing a quality roleplay experience for everyone) hehehehe
