Herb gardens (and public gardens in general)

It would be wonderful if there was a tag that identified who planted a crop, herb or otherwise, in a plot, until it was available for reaping to anyone... in fact, if the tag remained after it became available to anyone, some of us would avoid that crop until the owner harvested it, or we would harvest and drop so the nearby "AFK" owner would have a chance to collect.  Just a thought, in interest of community spirit. :)

    But after a few minutes, anyone should be able to harvest it. Cause after a few days and that person is never on, then it's kinda annoying when someone is using up valuable herb space.

  • It would be even cooler if I could plant some rookswort in the community gardens and it has my name tag on it & then I never go harvest it, so my name tag is there forever for other glitchen to admire!  Also, there's like 20 other plots there, so you won't even mind that one is permanently mine!

  • @AwesomeCardinal2000: totally agree.  Just trying to avoid that situation where you've planted something, and you step away from the keyboard for a bathroom break, and come back to find someone harvested it.  And who can blame them... there's no way of knowing that the person standing there AFK is waiting for that crop.

    Plus, I always worry I'm doing that to someone else when I harvest items I didn't plant.

    And thirdly, when I've got crops growing in multiple beds, I lose track of which ones are mine.  But that is more my failing than anything else. :)

  • Ditto for who planted trees.
