Calling all Victims of thieves This goes out to u guys (coming soon)

Okay, I've seen alot of Victims talk about how their precious little Feeders/Collectors/Gifts have been stolen from others. The thing is, WHY do you have them out there in the first place. I mean sometimes i get it that your trying to be nice and all by having your animals out to "Share" with everyone and then the world can live in happiness, well those people are stealing from you! Its not worth it. Now, what im going to do is:

1. get rid of stuff/make money using a sucessful method.
2. buy animal youth potions
3. have glitchen IM me or mail me (No Reserving in the forum sorry) for one
4. i send it and you move your animals to your backyard.

If you dont want to do this, i completely understand. Dont have enough room inside, i get that. im just saying for those who DO have this problem and can fix it using said method, will finally conquor those Thieves!!!

*Waits for glitchen crowd reaction*

Edit: IM/Mail me, but then tell me when your online also so I, i will use animal youth potions on animals because i dont want someone requesting 16 potions just to go sell them

  • You can set free chickens and butterflies instead of youthing them. If you need your pigs removed, get a bunch of your friends to help bait them.

  • I think he's offering to let you keep your existing animals and just moving them to the backyard from the front yard.  I have to admit once I name an animal here..I do get somewhat attached to it...so I always capture or youth potion them if I move (when we were using the old housing that is).

    <omgnotthis****again>
    We leave them out there on purpose.
    To benefit others.
    Not to give you a currant stream.
    K?
    K.
    Thxbai.

    PS: We do not need your help.

  • Also, the problem you're addressing is that people don't like it when other people take their feeders and collectors from their home streets. And your solution is to remove the animals from the street? I don't see how that will help.

  • It's the thought that counts? :)

  • Here's the reason all my animalia are not in my backyard of my /home at this very moment.
    It's TOO crowded with resources, and we have no way of installing an animal pen at this time.
    I got sick, v early on, of pigs walking in front of crops.
    Or anything else I was trying to manipulate.

    So: In terms of feature requests, it goes like this.
    a) Allow us to put in an animal pen in the new /homes.
    b) Allow us to LOCK feeders/milkers/meatbins in our front yards of our new /homes.

    This have been iterated before.
    I am reiterating.

  • I'm not sure why anyone would think Taco Assassin was trying to make money from this--he's offering to use his own money to make Animal Youth potion in order to help people move their animals.
    You may not care for his help, but it's hardly fair to say he's trying to profit.

  • Taco Assassin, bravo for trying to help solve an ongoing source of much unhappiness in Glitch.  I love it when players work to solve problems rather than just complaining about them -behavior I'm guilty of on occasion ;)

  • K. K? If not providing a currant stream for others, I'm curious to know how else putting pigs/feeders/collectors on a home street benefits others? Because no one is there to admire your pig collection. They are there to get meat to...ya know, sell for currants?

    That's what ya get for trying to help, Taco Assassin. You'll find that no good deed goes unpunished here in Ur. What they're really trying to say is: we want to keep putting our equipment out there because without thievery, we'd have nothing to bitch about.

  • Sandy - having feeders on out /home streets ensures that our pigs can indeed be harvested by passersby.  And collecters give an addition 60 meat if you happen to pass by at the right moment.

    AC2000 - animal sticks still don't prevent animals from getting in the way in the backyard if you have it full of resources.  I really think that TS should think about reinstating animal pens as a /home feature.

  • Yeah, that would be good.

  • To continue the complete diversion of thread to new stream: Down with pig sticks! I want my pen back!
    Posted 8 months ago by JillyBean Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Until they lock down the equipment, they'll most likely be stolen. I think TA has a valid question: why do you put it out there in the first place? To be 'nice', or to have something to rag about once people steal 'em?

  • Two trees with a pig stick between them works pretty dang well, and keeps them fed and away from garden beds, rocks and other such resources.  We can't have two trees now, but we will be able to later.

  • I can see the beauty of the tree/pig stick setup, but it doesn't address the 'I'm trying to harvest but these damn pigs are in the way' issue, which is why i prefer the pigpen. If it wasn't for that I would never have moved out my meadow home in the first place - i bought a big house for the pigpen alone. Looking forward to trying this idea and any others you herdkeepers suggest!

  • @Carl... can pigs eat your sparkly? That'd be cool. Sparkly pigs!

    I personally don't want pens again, because the sticks are more flexible. I can say where the pen will be, and mix and match it with other things. I like feeding my pigs using the trees. The trees dies off quicker, but then more progress toward the Paul Bunions badge.

    At first I did put out the RHK stuff on faith and hoping that others would be able to come along and take the milk and meat from it. Wanted to put more wealth/abundance into the system. Now, I just figure that if they're there, they may someday walk. It'd be nice if they could lock but others could harvest from them. Save people the time of having to nibble every piggie.

  • Guys, i was just asking if anyone WANTED to remove their piggys/chickens from their front yard to the back so they could use collectors. Now, i love and i mean love, that it means that much to you guys about helping others out with animals in the front yard. but for me, for most of my friends, its mainly been only thieves and other friends that go onto our street. I was just saying to anyone who WANTED to move their animals, they could. there are some people that form a special bond with naming animals, and keeping those specific animals. (look above) so, if u dont want it, dont get it, i was just sending the message to those herdkeepers that WANTED to get their animals moved inside for themselves and friends and others that are invited indoors.

    Thanks,

    Taco Assassin

  • TA, my animals are okay, but there are a couple tacos that've been giving me a really hard time lately and I'd like to take out a hit them on the down low.  >.>

  • Pigs getting in the way of your crops/other resources in your back yard? 
    Worry no longer, try a piggy shrine in your home.
    You can even place your feeders/harvesters upstairs out of the way and they will still work :)

  • Willow how many pigs is that? Can you fit an entire herd of 25+ on there without them having a sad?
    Posted 8 months ago by JillyBean Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I have twenty-six in my front yard.

  • Hearts to you, Taco, and I'll take one of your potions. My pigs don't seem to be satisfied with my one tree, now that someone has again justly and well within the rules of the game appropriated my collectors and feeders. Of course, I could drag my lazy ass to an animal vendor, but this feels nicer.
