Tracked to heartfire, it leads to... Pucks heart. Wtf. Puck, explain, please.
Also, nice twist:
Thief scents in bottleneck leads to Puck's heartfire. Thief scents on Puck's land leads somewhere opposite direction
-edit- Theft scents in Talvara's place are leading to Puck's heart too.

Are you sure it's Puck? Summon for ID, but don't attack.

Anyway, we get theft clues now and then because people accidentally leave the village and then decide they can't wait for me or Hamel to reinvite them.

Now I'm seriously considering quitting this game again. The devs are fucking assholes. They LIKE the griefing and exploiting that happens. And its just impossible to really get thieves. They just make alts, steal stuff, and give them to their main or hide somewhere, and let the alt die. Killing them makes no difference. And we never get our stuff back BECAUSE WE CANT TRACK INDIVIDUAL ITEMS.

And dont say palisades and walls help. Rubs 3 was happily destroying palisades and everything. Just needs a bear cape, and a few FEP points.

And jorb FUCKING SAID HE WANTS TO ADD MORE TOOLS TO HELP THE THIEVES.

No way this game is gona work like this. Its already impossible to actually get steal and silk and stuff WITHOUT the fucking thieves. Now, it will be completely impossible to do ANYTHING.

Unfortunately I can't continue documenting cheese production. Both the cheesery and the brewery stocks have been looted of their rennet and cheese stocks.

Oh and I'm missing three & ½ bins of beer bottles. As well as a sizeable portion of beer.

I'm shutting down further production because I'm not in the habit of running a charity organization.

You misunderstood the devs in this case. They do not approve of griefing, but they like thievery. This is quite a difference:

A griefer tries to make the life of other players a pain with vandalism and all that.
A thief tries to maximize his own gain, per method of stealing of others.

The problem in this case are the alts, currently the fact that they can act as some sort of quantum storage for items, which would warrant the inventory overhaul so that you can force summon Mr. Quantum Storage and get your item back. But alts in general are a problem - this way, JTG and others don't have to fear getting killed and losing their progress. We'll see what the crew is going to do about that, they usually have good solutions.

And let's face it, assuming Thief vs. Item Owner, without alternate accounts involved, the Item Owner has the advantage. Thievery is supposed to be high risk, high reward, and once we fix the risk factor (or, alt problem), it will be too difficult to steal from people.

Remember when I called people to chop down a lot of my trees?  Who was in charge of that?  Was it Owen?

Well...  yeah.  It needs done again.  Come haul off all this wood.

I would post a screenshot of the horror now, but it's dark.  I'll do it tomorrow, maybe.

Good lord, no. I didn't even touch the things and it drove me mad. I only ever organized it because we had three newbies with stars in their eyes desperately wanting for some cabins.

Errol said most of the things I think. It is rather unfortunate that they don't take steps to handle the alt problem - it seems to only be snowballing downhill. I wouldn't blame people for leaving, myself.

Part of that problem would be a) lack of a good solution and b) lothar's absence over the week.

Yeah, I can see the lack of good solutions - the only thing I can think of is an arbitrary limitation on accounts / characters per account which I can only assume would be fairly easily circumventable. I don't think loftar's absence is terribly relevant as it's been around long previous to now, but I suppose it has come to a head in the past few days.

Maybe they could just make walls harder to smash?  Up the Str req to break pallisades?  That at least would force the thieves to spend a lot more time developing their alts.
