the keyword there is "buy" not "other places"

If they haven't purchased it and have it, that's definitely breaking at least one rule.

As far as i know, from a moderation point, He owns valheim legit. He never claimed to have stolen valheim specifically. But that's not what brought the ban

there's a few words out there that will earn you a pretty swift one

Paid full price to have Valheim on Xbox and PC. Still think it's worth more than $20.

Honestly a little shocked that character immersion isn't allowed, even to advertise in the lfg

tough aspen
#

What does that mean

shrewd adder
#

Roleplaying is not allowed

tough aspen
#

Like...in discord?

shrewd adder
#

idk? I got timed out for making a lfg and saying Roleplaying.

frail pond
#

I don't see a rule surrounding that, you may want to inquire with a moderator.

shrewd adder
#

Rule 7

#

And then the guidelines in lfg area says all server rules apply. And I was trying to look for a ticket or way to reach a modeator w/o pinging here...

frail pond
#

A roleplaying server is different than posing as someone in the discord.

#

You might've just been auto-modded. I would send a ticket to be sure.

I appreciate the feedback, where can I open a ticket? I might be missing the area for that.

There are 25 posts in that channel with the word 'roleplay', one less than a day ago. What did the bot say?

I do recall, that out of the ten minutes, I was only timed out for two?

It was a nice weekend, weather was getting springy and warmer, no freezing... I live in Northern Europe, Finland, city of Jyväskylä. Not too north then. Helsinki is about 300 km south from here which.

Anyway I was all for Spring starting, then today on Monday I woke up and everything is covered in pure white snow. Trees, walkways, lake, etc. Okay my nearby lakes are frozen anyway late until Spring.

But Sun-Mon night it snowed a lot all night. Streets are all snowy. Well they try to use tractors or whatever they use to plow the snow away from car roads and walkways, but its quite a lot of work.

It kept snowing until evening. I went to a grocery store recently, and I walked outside and was still snowing a lot. I took a bus. Was maybe little over 1,2 km walk. Eh.

It was not too cold, maybe -2 Celsius in the night and morning. Then midday when i woke up and saw it was snowing, it was perhaps zero (freezing), and maybe -1 or +1 or something like that.

Slightly rainy snow is annoying. Which we had at evening when i went to a store. Bought some Pepsi Max and took a bus home.

Not the greatest Mar10 due to bad weather. Anyway I felt this text fits here, since Deep North is coming. Oh and people talk about the weather in their country and complain if its +10 C. And Valheim nights arent really cold. And mountain isn't annoyingly cold.

Uh people talk about walking outside where is +15. Sigh. I can't wait for real spring and summer to start :). Maybe this rant helps.

#

Hey that was like... a Valheim inspired short text about something. This server should have a channel for that kind of creative writing 🙂.

I could add bolded topics so it is easier to read.

tough aspen
#

I enjoyed that except the pepsi part

heady crow
#

I visited your city in 2017! Absolutely beautiful country you have there.

warped citrus
#

You did? Hey thanks. I am actually feeling flattered about that. Glad you like it. Figured nobody would be interested. It has some kind of text in it, quite a bit actually, and written spontaneously by one person about his experiences waking up, then another story later, going out to snowy rain to buy common groceries and some sugar free cola drinks. The story doesn't really say much, or have a deep meaning, although paradoxically, the story doesn't leave much unsaid, so the says quite a bit. Sot it says very little and very much at the same time. Maybe that is some deep meaning?

#

Special thanks to those who read it entirely. It is quite long. I am glad if you liked it, or got inspiration or felt something like that. Was fun to do, write about experiences and thought and see some connection to Valheim at least. And on so small things like waking up and buying groceries.

marsh sentinel
#

I mean, this is general, it doesn't need that much of a connection. Does seem like it might belong somewhere else though, like a blog.

__
A fickle being__

The muse is fickle, whispers thin.
A fleeting touch upon the skin.
She dances light on toes of air.
Then vanishes, no trace, no care.

She'll bless your brow with sparks of gold.
Then disappear, her secrets cold.
Her voice a ghost, a fleeting sigh.
A dream that fades when dawn is nigh.

Yet still we chase her shadowed grace.
In hopes she'll linger, show her face.
For in her whims, in moments rare.
She gifts a spark beyond compare.

The guy in my brain tells me I'm insane.
I don't really know him, I don't really believe him.
He's been there for years, through the laughs and the tears.

depending on your budget, it's most likely doable now. There's a lot of techniques for getting data off of hard drives, from replacing the controller boards, to opening the drives in clean rooms and replacing the heads or moving the platters to known good drives, to actually using sophisticated hardware to read bits off the platters without the on-board hardware at all. Just a matter of how much money you are willing to pay someone to do it.

Replacing a control board is fairly cheap I'd imagine. The other solutions, less so

At the very least, I'd recommend building some sort of NAS and employing some sort of RAID - it's not backup, but it is the first step in increasing the longevity of your data. If you don't have a big budget, you can use an old gaming PC and repurpose it

and half or more of users just use the "pronoun" field for silly things. I'm not calling you "garbageself", "sauce/drip", "meat popsicle", "LMAO", or "9/11" - just to pick a few pronouns from users at the top of the list. "they" is sufficiently respectful and gender-neutral.

that's the thing - it's not about what you "identify" as. Kids call anyone not a kid, a "boomer". Meanwhile, Gen X and older call anyone just entering the workforce a "Millenial", despite the fact that the oldest mellenials are in their mid-40s, and closer to retirement than being new to the workforce

call me old fashioned, but my dad cured me of ADHD at a very early age. it was called a belt. now i can focus on literally everything. only side effect is i'm now as introverted as you can get

A real parent should conduct their child's behaviour and let them learn from mistakes, but physical harm isn't it

Funny how expressions come to mean different things over time, "Blood runs thicker than water" used to mean the opposite.

silent marlin
#

what does "Blood runs thicker than water" mean now? to me it still means family first

#

i've never known it to mean anything else

vivid maple
#

It means family first now

#

Old saying is "The blood of the covenant runs thicker than the waters of the womb"

silent marlin
#

those are two different phrases to me, but i see where you're going

vivid maple
#

Your parents, while they might be amazing people sometimes, are assigned at random. Meaning you might just land on horrible parents. That doesn't mean you're horrible, though. Chosen bonds however, that's your call. Many who run away from horrible families seek shelter in amazing friend groups.

manic osprey
#

lots of people don't finish those things, and thus change the meaning:

  • "[The] blood [of the covenant] is thicker than [the] water [of the womb]"
  • "All things work to the good [of those who are in Christ, and called according to his purpose]"
  • "Curiosity killed the cat [but satisfaction brought it back]"
  • "Great minds think alike [but fools seldom differ]"
  • "Jack of all trades, master of none [but oftentimes better than master of one]"

etc.

Im looking for someone who is used to the ashlands for some tips and maybe a little bit of help if possible

tough aspen
#

What are you struggling with?

acoustic mountain
#

I wondered is there any place on the map where enemies are less intensely attacking to set up a base? I cant reach the spawners it just never ends

tardy vale
#

no

#

it's basicly the same all over the map

acoustic mountain
#

I made a portal inside a block of marble on a random beach and they are destroying it. I died near my portal and i think if i try too often they will end up destroying my portal and kill me with my second armor

frosty walrus
#

Any specific enemies giving you trouble?

acoustic mountain
#

Happily my portal is 2 blocks of marble high and i think they float which is a good thing maybe it wont be destroyed but i doubt returning or the way ill do it seriously

#

There was askvin and a morgen who almost destroyed my base. I managed to kill them but their is still plenty of charred warriors and voltures.. my portal is very exposed and i would like to rebuild around it but it just doesnt stop coming

#

I destroyed a spawner nearby but their must be other ones nearby

frail pond
#

Spawners are only responsible for 3-5 enemies at a time, and they're always charred. Even then, they can spawn without a spawner. If you're looking to spawn proof an area in the ashlands, you'll want to build stone shelters for workbenches/campfires. It is possible to find areas with less spawns than usual though, I usually look for peninsulas that have only one way in, and build stone shelters all along it.

west berry
#

Anti spawn grid exceeding the detection radius

acoustic mountain
#

Stones? They litteraly destroyed marble like it was soft tissue.. Fires? Do they help keeping enemies long distance?

west berry
#

They only aggro build pieces you stand behind

#

...Or can see

#

Benches, portals, chests

frail pond
#

Stone shelters keep the workbenches/campfires from catching on fire, these shouldn't be used as defensible structures in any sense.

west berry
#

20m avg I think artisan bench is 40m

frail pond
#

Campfires and workbenches prevent enemies from spawning within a 20m radius.

west berry
#

A defense grid of artisan bench would look cool too lol

acoustic mountain
#

Now that is interesting

frail pond
median mist
#

@acoustic mountain rush the spawners, spam campfires, and dig trenches.

west berry
#

So anti spawn a square 100m or so lol

#

Also Always setup an emergency failsafe portal on one of the jutting spires near the shore, until you have a well established base with defenses

Just go through with materials for another portal, ignore the mess at your base and try to find a safe space for a backup portal to work from, potentially atop a rock somewhere.

tough aspen
#

Is it in Ashlands?

acoustic mountain
acoustic mountain
frail pond

Maybe it's my seed, but the coastlines usually have some empty spaces, going stealth on a rock in such a space for a moment usually clears up anything following me as well.

tough aspen
# acoustic mountain Yes

Bring some extra ||finewood because if they manage to break the portal the wood can easily burn and turn to coal while you run around, and you can't get finewood in Ashlands easily|| <- just something that happened to me once 🥲

Ah tbh I meant stone portal, but yes, if you're using a wooden portal, maybe break your way into some cover with a pickaxe

it's no dishonours, you can actually make things more difficult using it, trying just switching on "fire hazards" was a lot of fun to me (and techniclly made the game a small bit harder). i like to go "full normal" myself but if it means loosing tons of hours and frustrating otherwise, 100% go for it

Just play Ashlands, by the time you get to it if you start from scratch it should be much closer to DN. Zero reason to wait that long ^^

Also you could continue your world to the DN when it is there. Just leave the furthest North part of your map unexplored and the new content will be generated there normally.

And if you manage to clear them all before DN you can try building a great and mighty mead hall for yourself.

Hehe, yup. It really is. I've been a lot of places, but this will always be home. Northern Ontario is about the only place that I enjoy camping more.

#

(And snowmobiling...so much snow up there!)

Neil Young's old stomping grounds 😉

#

I learned to ski on the hills up there. I'll make it home soon enough

Hah, not a lot of "peace of mind" lately, but at least I have Valheim for that.

west berry
#

Comes a time. Agreed about Valheim for sure

The hills in Hurley and Ironwood are pretty great.

#

And up by Ontonagon, in the Porkies. They got so much snow this year.

west berry
#

Four or five up that way iirc. Indian head, Powder Horn, Black Jack, White Cap, ? Been twenty plus years

#

Porkies.. Porcupine mountains I'm guessing?

fast trout
#

Heh, yeah.

Lots of great cross country trails there, too.

west berry
#

Absolutely. Trips to rainbow falls area for me as well

#

And beautiful backpacking, though the last time I was up there in the fall there was an absolutely amazing amount of tourists (not disparaging anyone, just shocked).

west berry
#

Cool to hear. People still smelt fishing as a community anymore?

fast trout
#

Man, I wish. The smelt quit running here while I was in high school...so like 26 years ago? I know there are areas up north where they do still, but nothing anywhere near me.

#

Awe that's horrible. I remember it well.

fast trout
#

That was always so fun. People up and down the banks catching and cooking them right there, and everyone just happy and excited.

#

Basically a big party with all of us kids running around in packs, hehe.

west berry
#

We did it with nets. Loaded up truck beds of buckets full and cooked as a family

fast trout
#

Yeah, that was always the next day for us. We'd all camp out there, then fill a couple buckets to bring back and freeze what we couldn't eat right away.

#

Felt like hours of cleaning smelt. It did earn me a sweet pocket knife (that I wasn't allowed to bring to school), though.

#

Rough grouse hunting was another core memory.

fast trout
#

Gut 'em, cut off the heads, and then freeze those parts to use as bear bait in the fall.

#

Oh yeah, lots of partridge here. Occasionally had them at Thanksgiving when Pops or Grampa didn't get a turkey (I always liked them more).

#

I hunted them some in high school. Pretty content to just walk around and take pictures of them now.

I was saying hi but ow, that hurts

I was trying to think of something cheeky to respond to this. But I'm owl out of ideas.

#

I don't give a hoot what your excuse is. You should've winged it.

Heh, i like owl of these 😄

west berry
#

I heard owls live by a strix set of rules

marsh sentinel
#

Ooh. MtG reference.

#

Or D&D I guess.

west berry
#

Oh I was going off of genus(?). Owls can be known as strix I believe.

But yea the Baleful Strix is one of my fav MTG card art

marsh sentinel
#

Ooh, that's where they get the name from then, I guess. I hadn't realised.

west berry
#

I'm a tad bit of a raptor nerd. I think strix as a name is pretty cool.

The DnD topic is interesting too. I was working on a drawing for an owl character few months ago.

Still wish owls in MTG had more support. Would absolutely build a deck around them. Edh build would be tough though

#

The Strixhaven campaign book introduces the Owlin species.

west berry
#

Can it be read like a novel?

marsh sentinel
#

Oh no, not at all.

#

You effectively tell the story by playing the campaign so everyone will have a different experience.

west berry
#

I miss MTG novels. The champions of kamagawa series and Mirodin were both brilliant

#

I see. My kids play DnD a few friends as well. I love it's still going. Since what the 70s?

marsh sentinel
#

I'm literally playing that campaign (as we have for a couple of years now) tonight.

west berry
#

That's incredible. Same group in the same world all this time!?

Mostly, we've recently lost one member. Sadly we don't know what's up with her. Her dad was very ill for a while and she'd be missing more and more sessions and then she disappeared completely.
