The only thing I know about you is that you were a real douche at that Magician Beach after the idoc. And when I tried to buy a neon hair dye from you you gave me a beard dye by "mistake", which from what I hear I doubt was a mistake at all. I don't know much about you but if I had to guess it sounds like you deserved this and glad he did it. Karma is a b*.
Is this addressed to me?

That was an honest mistake, and beards are worth more you spaz. If it was a scam why the did I correct it afterwords?

Seriously consider your babble, you are drawing parallels to Joshua Lee.

I'm starting to think that it should be limited. It's soon going to become common place to clear your house out every week.

I don't personally recall this ever happening on OSI, but I may just have been sheltered.
Where else is everything supposed to go?
I think there is a psuedo limit, as when you start making heating stands and dont use a trash barrel ,they begin to stack on an adjacent tile once one tile is filled.

Is this REALLY something that needs to be thought about? This is, by definition, "Using game-mechanics to harass another player."

And the fact that it should take this long just to address this as a legitimate problem seems a bit surprising.

Let it be known that by taking no stance, this is still giving a "silent consent" to player harassment for the time being.

Hmm what's that? Haha and who are you to provoke ME? If I remember correctly, you told me (when I use to get on IRC) that you were neutral in regards to PoV. You were in their chat room all of the time. You also said you were in a crafting guild. Now, if you can not so please share your in game character names. Then you are not worthy to even utter my name peasant. You can hide behind your "crafting" excuse all you want. I may just come after you next so watch out. :twisted:

No, because PKing, thieving etc. is expected and part of gameplay. Always has been always will be. THIS is using the game mechanic to lag someone out, possibly disconnect them. It's an exploit and harassment.

Disagree with me if you feel you have a point, but rudeness doesn't make you any more right, just childish.

Actually, princesspeach theres alot of good in that post you just made.

You made a clear argument, and voiced your opinion in a fairly repspectful way. Keep it up. That's how you're taken seriously.

Yes, princesspeach. Your "carpet bomb" was alot tamer than most. It was pretty easy to clean up. Especially since you dropped alot of cooking items near my oven. It's very sweet of you to help me raise my cooking.

The carpet bombing that is the REAL problem are the massive amounts of stacked items that take up the same z-axis.

If utilized properly, that could possible crash someone, and at the least lag them out, if given a large enough space, I would assume. THAT is an exploitation of the game.

I'm not quite sure I understand the problem here.

People are able to get inside your house?

And when they drop lots of excess stuff on your floor, you don't like it?

Lock doors?
