OP complains about massive builds with many placeables that cause lag. Therefore, they are against the ability for people to build like that, and clearly, they have exhausted all available means to deal with the issue, aka reporting. And, speaking from experience, and even more can be found on the forums, building infractions are handed out plenty. So, either the base hasnt been reported, its been reported and not acted on (unlikely) or its not breaking rules.
Using the proof that building violations are acted on rather fast, Im going to assume the base has been reported and not touched, aka, within the rules. Since that is the case, the OP is not happy with the current ability of people to build what they like within the rules (happy Deacon?) So I asked what they felt people should be allowed to build and then asked why they felt people should adhere to their way of building, since what is present is within the rules.
In replying to my questions, the OP states:
Clearly they are against peoples builds. This is where my idea comes in, in my next reply:
It eliminates lag, it eliminates all building infractions, and solves people problems on land claims. Its a viable idea.
To which, I get two replies:
and
So, after all that, Im not the one that came in fists swinging looking to start ■■■■ or derail ■■■■, that was clearly done by you and Deacon. Personally, I dont care, I enjoy conversing, but dont sit on your high horse and say that IM the one doing bad.
I am convinced @Nemisis argues solely to watch himself argue.
A good half of the Conan experience is building. Prefab bases would make it a different game entirely.
I am NOT “against” player built, and creative bases. In fact, I wouldn’t play the game without it.
Now, what I am advocating for, is thoughtful and considerate building.
I am not referring to any one base with this post. I can think of a few on a couple of servers that I could name off but I’m not here to call people out. I have reported bases here and there, mostly when they are heavily problematic for more than one reason (meaning, not just for being too laggy, but if they make a necessary area unplayable, or kill important spawns, etc) and nearly every report has gotten cleared.
My original post was a question. I asked simply to be enlightened as to why people go above and beyond anything that would remotely make ANY sense.
I’m not even talking about a sort of laggy base. I’m talking about covering your entire castle’s floors with stygian carpets (yes the tiny, 1x1 ones, and I have seen this) I’m talking about the maasive, 17room and ten tower castle, which then has a 50x50 area surrounding it of just foundations covering the ground. No reason. Just they dont like grass and then all of that is surrounded by a wall, twenty high, with towers every ten, all decked out with five hundred torches. And that’s not even beginning to go into each separate mini-castle housing every altar in the game, that are on the outskirts of said castle fortress wall Minecraft terraforming with foundation situation.
So you lost the plot on the first post.
You need to go back and reread that, you seem confused as to what the topic is.
What proof? Unless you are using a zendesk exploit it can take a month or longer for admin action.
When you assume something you make an assofUandme.
And that is a rather fallacious assumption, I’m curious what logic you used to come to it?
My experience two thirds of the time funcom never investigates building violation reports.
Thing is you can’t believe anything else or your entire argument falls apart.
Since the build clearly lags down the console it was meant to be on it clearly violates the rules. More then likely funcom has never investigated it.
Occam’s razor is a problem-solving principle that states the simplest explanation is usually the best.
Only 1/3 of my reports ever got investigated, and you know why.
Of coarse of those investigate only 1 of 5 wasn’t a violation/didn’t get admined.
And it had nothing to do with the build site.
OMG If that is what you came away with after reading what you quoted, you clearly fail to understand what is being posted, and your head is just filling in the parts you don’t understand.
You prove it every time you paraphrase what you THINK some one has said. You clearly do not understand what people are posting then let your biased assumptions fill in that void.
I’ll argue it is not at all a viable idea in Conan so much so I didn’t originally take you seriously.
If you didn’t care you wouldn’t be responding.
Go for it.
All I ever see of CNN is clips on journalists videos. CNN is just center of the road soft paw news. Doing their best to normalize insanity, absurdity and political crime; for fear them exerting their first amendment rights might antagonize some one to arbitrarily pull their license.
But that is a plot change I’ll try to ignore.
Yes, reading is important. But you know what is more important? Understanding what you have read. More over if you think this is paraphrasing “so then when I specifically dont say something”, you clearly do not understand the term.
I don’t buy you live freely. I have doubts about the farm thing. I’ve worked agribusiness a good part of my life. Last 17 years I worked was at a grain elevator. 7 years retired and I still can not sleep past 4:30AM. Your posting times are odd for working agribusiness.
Only certain times of the year.
Oh I know they do it, never said they didn’t did I.
So you don’t participate in chat?
I mean if I was admin and you started this on my server
You all know I’d argue with god if I thought she was wrong.
Quite often I learn things, arguing stimulates my head so I’m more focused on the information. There are people on here; and I hope you know who you are, that I have argued at length with, and learned so much from. I deeply thank you all.
And some I am just amazed at the thoughts of. It’s sort of like handing an orangutan a saw and waiting to see what they do with it.
And that is precisely why I asked this question in the first place,
Because you are against the idea that people build big massive and laggy (your experience). You dont understand why people do that.
So I countered with what you felt was acceptable, and WHY people should think your idea should be followed. There are people out there that build as they see fit (within the rules) and there are those that go too far. Why? Maybe they dont know, maybe they dont care, maybe they think Funcom will optimize (all of which Ive already talked about).
Ok, perfect. What is that exactly? And, have you thought that maybe the owners of the bases you dont like think their bases are thoughtful and considerate? Maybe they dont lag like you do, maybe they like aesthetically looking bases. Maybe theyre ok with a bit of lag when things load in, because Funcom keeps releasing such good looking cosmetic items for them to build with.
Have you tried reporting them then? I will assume at this point, youre referring to PvE servers (I dont think its been stated anywhere yet) Funcom acts on building infractions regularily, and, like I said above the base has been reported and no action has been taken (means its within rules), its been reported and no action yet (if some bases have been there years, then reports have been looked at and dealt with, meaning theyre within rules) or they havent been reported.
And this ^^, yeah, take the two people trying to ■■■■ all over me and just ignore the conversations Im having with them. They hate me like God hates the Devil, and use that to go off topic on things that have already been hashed out. I aint here to start arguments…or if you think that, then everyone on the forums is here for that.
The end result is precisely the same. Report them or destroy them, or move along. Thats the options currently available. Until Funcom changes something, people will forever build the same way people have for the last 7 years, some will be fine, some will break rules. It will never change.
I did provide one way for that to change, oddly enough, no one wanted to talk about that.
When did I say it was in reference to one base in talking with him? I didnt, its the mindset of people who build like that, and the only fix is to report them currently. My idea of predesigned blueprints will solve the issue of overbuilding laggy villages with walls.
Feel free to re read that in front of a mirror. This topic didnt go way off into left field until you opened your mouth.
And yet, that logic is applied to every single base you come across. Doesnt matter if 10 people build 10 bases like that, or if one person builds 10 bases like that. What you do as a player is exactly the same. How do we fix it? Impossible in the current state.
Yeah, clearly I have no idea what the OP is talking about.
And you say I have reading comprehension issues. Its clear to me at this point, you are very similar to Deacon and do not read what I type. Ive already explained what my first replies to the OP were, (PS they were on topic) and provided an idea that would solve the issue.
What did you do?
You contributed nothing but insults to me, and derailed the topic. What was that thing I keep saying? If you dont like the topic or what people say, dont click on it? You chose to reply, engage and derail because you have beef with me. Enjoy being what you accuse others of.
I admit Im wrong when its needed, and Ive done it before. I wont say that here, because on this thread, Im not wrong.
Says the pot calling the kettle black. Just because you have no concept of how to read and cannot admit when you are wrong does not mean you can project your failings onto others. The world does not work that way no matter how much you wish that it did.
In all honesty, you make yourself look more and more idiotic every time you spew your ignorance onto the forum. Do yourself a favor:
That’s funny, the OP seems to think I know EXACTLY what they are talking about. Conversely they have made it clear exactly what they think of you:
I am convinced @Nemisis argues solely to watch himself argue
Living in your own delusions much?
Because it is a statement of fact which is backed up by a multitude of examples.
I’ve never seen you do it even when the facts have been shoved in your face repeatedly by multiple people. You can lie all you want but the facts are what the facts are. You do not ever admit when you are wrong, you lie consistently and repeatedly and you only ever join threads with the intent to derail them and stir shyte. It is your MO. Your entire history proves it.
Except for when you completely took it off topic by addressing things that never existed, asked questions based on assumptions that were fallacious and you KNEW were bogus (at best), because you had only ill intent when you made your initial post. Sorry but no matter how much you want to attempt to twist reality it is still reality and you are still COMPLETELY FULL OF SHYTE
No it isn’t. That is the part you complete fail to comprehend.
But you didn’t.
But it doesn’t that is the part you don’t get.
The fact that it is still there, and clearly a violation.
Wrong, and that is the part you don’t get.
I said before we feel sympathy for you, like a sad lost puppy.
We worry who is taking advantage of your poor education and gullibility.
No you don’t, you live under some ones thumb.
You’ve made that abundantly clear.
I can step out my front door and take pictures of farmland too, does not mean I live there.
What sort of freaked out farm does your family own and let you play around at? Those are not working hours for any farmer I have ever know in 60 years. My uncle ran a dairy. My neighbor works at a cattle ranch. I know poultry farmers and have friends that work at hog farms. None of them sleep past 4AM. They have all the feeding done before your butt gets out of bed.
To me those sound like the owners simple sons hours so he feels like he contributing.
But if it’s effects performance on a console it becomes a ToS violation, what part of that is so hard for you to comprehend?
How about people just follow rules? That solves the issue with out writing new code.
Because that isn’t the topic, oh for the love of Mike.
The topic is
WHAT MOTIVATES PEOPLE TO BUILD LIKE THAT
Do you understand now?
No it wasn’t, it was way off and everyone knows it but YOU.
YOU are the only one in this discord that can not paraphrase what people are saying. You always get it wrong, PROOF you have reading comprehension issues.
And you don’t understand what we are writing. Just because you read the words does not mean you understand the concepts and you prove it in your paraphrasing.
That wasn’t the OP question. Once again you’re paraphrasing proves you do not understand what the OP posted. And you just can not see why can you?
Oh I don’t think they are lying I think they are wrong in assuming you know your arguments were fallacious. I think you honestly do not know.
And here is another issue with you, an assumption is not a lie not matter how close to fact it is.
Sorry, not something you can pull off, and I guarantee you have no clue why.
Urgh, opens thread to read new posts and see if there’s anything constructive added to the conversation. Nope, it’s just Nemisis arguing and ruining another thread again. Please stay on topic or don’t post. Otherwise, I’ll start flagging.
You give them too much credit here. They are, and have always been, a bad actor. So I fully believe that they knowingly used fallacious claims with full intent. However, I am willing to concede that it is in fact possible that they may have simply done so out of shear incompetence.
I see the actual point still eludes you.
That is A point, but it is not THE point.
You have to, you’re mind fails to comprehend any other explanation.
Even though there is a far more logical one, but accepting that one would mean you were wrong there for would never, could never acknowledge it.
Google “contradiction in terms”. I know you fail to comprehend but posting something like that is proof you have no real understanding of the terms used.
And I can take a picture of an empty bean field from my front porch.
Yes.
My uncle Pete’s dairy was in upstate NY. He was up at 3AM, milking cows by 4:30, and getting the morning news paper delivered at 5:30. By 7AM he was reading the paper and in to his second pot of coffee. 365.
You do get this is on line right? I have absolutely no reason to believe anything you say. But when you say something that sounds way the hell wrong after 60 years of rural living, I have to point it out.
Like it not being dark at 4AM
Oh my lord, you are just so clueless. Once again we are at the point of me trying to explain red to a blind man.
If it’s on a server for consoles, it lagging console makes it a ToS violation.
PERIOD!
For the love of Mike why do you not get that? Why is that simple fact so far out side your comprehension?
I’ve noticed it typically the same people that argue in every thread these days… and it’s NOT just nemesis. Some people just love to argue, whether they’re right or wrong, or somewhere in between…
Yes, and the “A” question is a direct result of “B” event. Stop or change the event and “A” is no longer relevant. “A” cannot ever be changed without changing “B” first.
Ever seen a minority government covered in so many scandals, unbalanced budgets, illegal use of war time powers, removal of rights, and using any possible tool to get their way?
Authoritarian use of power by a far left government.
Does this mean that you dont believe anything anyone says, or anything you say, claim or try to prove is all fake and lies?
For the love of god dude, read the whole sentence. “As long as the work gets done”
Yup, and he likely milked again at 430 pm too right? When did he go to sleep? 1am? or 8pm? His schedule is not wrong at all. Thats what he chose, and was likely successful right? Does a guy who milks at 8am and 8pm do it wrong?
Perfect, that answers my question above, and I hope you hold this true to every single discussion here on the forums in the future.
Everyone is lying.
Wrong how? Do I do things the way they did 60 years ago? Nope, Id like to see a farmer from 1960 feed 150 cows in 40 minutes, having half that time for mixing feed. Id like to see that farmer in 1960 plant crops at a rate of 32 acres an hour, using a 61 foot air seeder.
You realize things change over time right? You realize that there are millions of farms in the world right? You realize, that if a farmer has been farming, growing, and expanding over 20 years, they must be making some right decisions right?
When did I ever say it didnt? If its an issue, report it. 5 years later, and its still there means two things, Funcom didnt look at it or they did and its not breaking rules. Ive already said how building infractions are looked at quite a bit, so I dont buy it that it hasnt been deleted because its a violation. Its either not reported or not a violation.
Seems like I did go over various reasons, although Id have to say the most likely answer, is because they can. There is literally nothing game preventing you from building like that. The reporting system is the only tool people have, but by then, damage done.
How can this be solved?
Issue mentioned.
Cause of issue is either “people” or “game mechanics”
Ask for suggestion on how to change the only thing you can, “game mechanics”
Ask why people would should like that change
Offer idea that will fix the issue
And you think #5 is off topic, but saying this:
isnt off topic, followed by your many replies and questions which have zero to do with the topic. But yes, by all means, my list above is totally off course.
“Be critical of and look down on people they feel are not important.”
“Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office.” (or always being right and never wrong)
“React with rage or contempt and try to belittle other people to make themselves appear superior.”
The shoe fits, since Oduda claims there could be many many reasons why they think I am someone Im not, instead of the actual answer, they are wrong.
@Oduda has nailed exactly what I’m trying to convey, several times. Thank you.
@Nemisis I need to make some things abundantly clear to save you more repetition:
There IS NO ONE BASE or even specific bases at all that I am “talking about” or that I “reported and they weren’t wiped” and all that nonsense. My post, my question, is just a general observation and an attempt to understand why.
Where have I asked for, or even implied, that I’m looking for a “solution”? I’ve seen (and been part of) the endless discussions on building rules, suggestions for hard piece limits etc. This is not the goal. The goal was simply to ask “why are people like this?”
Your original questions are based on assuming I’m here to debate building rules or solve “a problem” but the fact is these people will always do what they do I’m just asking why for the sake of discussion and one molecule of understanding lol
But it’s not, that is the part you fail to comprehend. And trying to explain to you is a complete waste you simply failed to comprehend the explanations.
Not by a minority, the ones doing that now ARE the majority.
Liberals are anti authoritarian. I’m sorry you fail to comprehend that fact.
Liberal=unrestricted.
authoritarian=restrictive control.
You thinking other wise proves you have been misinformed purposely, and the people doing this depend on you not knowing. you are being played for a fool and it is working.
Yes because everything online is a fact and no one lies to you
55 years of agribusiness and no farmer I have never met that would say that. If you said it they’d ask you what part of the city you were from.
When cattle are calving you are out there and they do not calf on your schedule. Most cattle calf at dusk or dawn, they can’t read a clock but the can a sunrise and set.
Only if he has no clue, but have proven in abundance you don’t, so…
FYI, my uncle rarely got to bed before 10pm. 20 hours days were common. That is what made his 700 head dairy successful. Still run by family, but like 4th cousin lol Was my mothers uncle.
Wow you are a real piece of… work aren’t you.
Still dark at 4AM
You saying it does not in any way, make, shape, or form, make it a fact.
It’s ok to be wrong.
As a response to your off topic post.
Thing is the issue mentioned isn’t about the build, and I find it fascinating that still hasn’t dawned on you.
No the shoe doesn’t fit. How on earth do you think it does? None of that definition applies to what Oduda has said at all. It’s mindbogglingly you think it does.
You thinking Oduda’s posts are narcissistic behavior is just further proof of your sad lacking in comprehension of the terms you’re using.
Seriously, how do you mange to operate farm machinery?
