Here I thought Exodus was bad&#8230;at least it had a map of the roads\/bridges\/canals! It may&#8217;ve not been a good one, but it was still a map. This is one of the reasons why I haven&#8217;t tried to get a better deal on re-imping my gear months ago.<br \/>\nThe map maintainer doesn&#8217;t play Wurm that often, plus he&#8217;s going on a forced vacation away from the game &#8217;till September (he says he has no AC..yet it says he lives in New York City), leaving no one to take over for updating the map.<br \/>\nI asked him, if he would consider adding the things I feel are required for a helpful map for explorers (the things I mentioned earlier). He claims &#8220;I do this on my own time and I don&#8217;t get paid for this blah blah blah&#8221;&#8230;when did I ever discuss payment? My response wasn&#8217;t rude at all, plus someone defends him, telling me &#8220;there aren&#8217;t that many canals in Pristine&#8221; and &#8220;the map dump does a pretty good job showing the roads&#8221;, which is what I went through with Exo.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m stuck with this damn thing, though. And don&#8217;t you fucking say &#8220;true explorers don&#8217;t need a map!&#8221;. I don&#8217;t want to hear it. I explore MY way, by knowing where I&#8217;m going at ALL times. If only Wurm had an optional SPS(Server Positioning System) that I could use.<\/p>\n<p>Getting to Pristine, took two attempts. First time I felt I was ready and had everything, got there, saw a Ven horse&#8230;then realize I forgot horse gear back home and had to go back and get it. As for that horse, I decided to try to find a younger one (that won&#8217;t die on me). Yet so far (and even while on the inner southern shore), I have yet to see a horse. Did see a hell horse, and a named horse with no saddle(yet assuming someone owned it, I didn&#8217;t bother to go over and examine).<br \/>\nI tried to ask for a better map, asking in the most nicest and formal of ways I could think of&#8230;only for me to be called a &#8220;needy ass&#8221; by &#8216;Beastwolf&#8217;. Great way to welcome explorers, pal. I&#8217;m glad I wasn&#8217;t a new person asking that, else I&#8217;d feel like quitting and never coming back. The resemblance to what happened in Exo is..uncanny. Both this guy and the last one were rude to me, and had a &#8216;rude against explorers&#8217; community.<\/p>\n<p>I also been having an &#8216;issue&#8217; saying things that were meant to go to me..in the public channels. The most infamous one was &#8220;&#8230;HOW IN THE FUCK did I get turned around?!&#8221; in GL-Freedom (instead of Local). I&#8217;ve taken the steps and pray this finally fixes this issue (by disabling all of my Tab key&#8217;s options). Did greatly apologize for my actions in that channel.<br \/>\nJust another day of shaming my favorite mythological creature with this nonsense, and yet wondering why no one respects me. I&#8217;m always the one who gets shitted on by the people who play it cool (and get all the respect).<br \/>\nI guess I just &#8216;haven&#8217;t found my calling&#8217; in my Wurm life yet (other than being something that is shamed by the community as it doesn&#8217;t pay the bills(as there&#8217;s no real skills in exploration&#8230; other than &#8220;hit stuff with huge axe and don&#8217;t die&#8221;)).<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nSo the rest of Day 1 was delayed because I wanted to watch Dire&#8217;s latest Let&#8217;s Play video. Surprised he hasn&#8217;t gotten into a void world yet. Just waiting for Sol to rise. Hopefully things will get better (and I&#8217;ll find a horse).<\/p>\n<p>And&#8230;screw this. I went back home. I am so pissed off. The reason why I haven&#8217;t found another wild horse, is that they&#8217;re rare. I asked a group of people in Local, and they told me the server has no Steppe, and it has some sort of bug affecting wild horse spawns. So that is what made me say FUCK YOU to Pristine.<br \/>\nA shame. I wanted to make it work, but clearly this server doesn&#8217;t want me. Sorry to let this die so quickly, but I need a horse to be able to eventually explore inside the server. And I refuse to pay 40c for something I cannot use outside of this server.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Honestly, I feel this is the worst server yet (and it hasn&#8217;t even been the full day).
