Time to join the Linux crew, and in the mean time make the person responsible pony up for damages, even if it's taking an allowance.... Using a solid AV(Avast is free and has always been a solid go to, avoid Norton/McAfee/AVG) and careful browsing(Chrome or Firefox sandbox mode if need be) are a must in the future if you are to stick to Windows.

Hope to see you back sooner rather than later...

Hi,

The plans that we have for inactive towns are that our main priority is to find an internal alternative for the mayorship; in other words, we will first look to see if any assistants or co-mayors are suitable for the role of mayor. This will go through all of the major town staff ranks before we even consider any form of 'auctioning'.

We don't have plans to sell towns to other towns at a lower price, this would create monopolies and duopolies of towns whereby new towns have a very low chance of being successful. This issue was alluded to by Meep and he's quite right in saying that the big towns would very easily be able to purchase this land without leaving any scuffs on their wallets whereas smaller towns would find it more difficult and risk their own towns stability in doing so.

I hope this helps

Any sales of old towns should be kept to those that don't belong to the uber rich, getting a few lower income users to run a town would build some sense of teamwork. I do agree a town should be flat out DEAD before anyone considers doing anything with it.

I just hope something can be done aside from just wiping them off the map, old outdated wild land on the other hand nuke that all ASAP ;)

We had a discussion about old towns that are no longer active, and thought it would be a neat idea if they could be auctioned off somehow. Would be a way for us less rich players to get a town and keep things active as opposed to just wiping them away...

Thoughts?

The point of the system blocking you from directly placing against land you don't own is to try and discourage exactly what you're trying to do. If you place a ladder against the land you don't own and then a friend of yours buys that land they would be able to break the block holding up the ladder and thus break the ladder.

You are still able to do it by a clever placement of blocks but the point of this change is to try and discourage you from doing it, and to instead place them against a block you actually own (and thus they are protected), a simple pillar would allow you to attach a ladder.

This is definitely a feature we'd be willing to review if the demand to place against walls really out-ways the small chance of a "wall block" being lost though; but at this time I would suggest building a pillar to place them on.

It just seems we are technically losing a blocks worth of space around our owned land then, as nothing can be placed there, it's fine if that's the way it is...it sort of makes sense in context. For me it just comes after work had already been done, albeit not a ton of work but still... I'll re-arrange and work it out.

Thanks for the input on the issue.

You can still place blocks in the outermost areas of your land you just can't use the blocks outside of your land to do so. You can do it by placing blocks against the land you own and not using the walls of land you don't own.

This is to prevent some issues where blocks could be placed against land which could in theory be broken from land you didn't own, resulting in the loss of your items. If you place against land you own you won't have any issues.

I was setting up a ladder down to my bedrock layer, and it's all there save for the bottom which was fine until this past update it's never gave me the error before except when I placed a chest against the border.

If it's something that's going to be persistent I just have some work to figure out, if it's reversible then it would save me that work. it's land against wild, so technically no one is breaking anything out there, and the closest neighbor already has proper permissions but isn't touching my borders.

I just need to know how it's going to work so I can plan accordingly.

"You can't place blocks against land you don't have access to"

That right there kinda messes up some stuff along borders...can we rethink this
