1. Make your inventory empty on death, like Survival 404 (a legendary game for all you new people, not trying to be cocky). Thats horrible. What if I die by accident? What if some nub comes and hits me with their mithril sword and kills me instantly. I've done a tad bit of asking around before to back up another case of mine a couple months ago, the vast majority of people who prefer Survival 303 to other survival games do so because Survival 303 is more forgiving. With crossbows capable of killing someone from a distance in a single click instantly, and a woven vest (which is easy to get if you take the time, especially on the new map) allowing for even people who took the safety precaution of getting some armour to be instantly wiped of an hours progress before they even know what happened.

2. Make stored tools be destroyed on death. (Storing isn't supposed to make people be able to evade losing their stuff, it's made for convenience, or should be, anyway). We have a backpack. If storing did nothing but keep it out, so in an emergency it is harder to get it, you might as well just remove storing altogether.

3. Add an ignore option (maybe ignore/Survival303Fan, conversely, unignore/Survival303Fan) so flamers, trollers, and annoying people can be easily ignored. Hardly anyone would use it. It's very easy to ignore someone on the internet, just don't reply to their posts. Anyone who is the kind of person to make someone so mad would be used to it. unless it physically removed them from your game, I see little point.

4. Nerf bluesteel, mithril, and steel armor. This is not me being noobish. I have constantly fought with mithril/bluesteel armor, and I was always invincible, even with enemies with yewbeam bows, dual wielding crossbows, and bluesteel swords. I realized that I could easily fight in steel armor with a steel sword as an invincible god (except to bluesteel and mithril swords). That way, bandits who have climbed the ladder to ultimate domination with bluesteel can't be invincible against a peaceful tribe with humble mithril, steel, or iron. Clubs should have a 300% damage increase against those in reinforced armor, and a 200% damage increase against those in non-reinforced armor (much like Survival 404). It makes sense, think about it. '''This means that in a battle of two bluesteel/Mithrilite hybrids, both weilding two bluesteel swords each, their weapon of choice will be: The Battle Club. With a reload equal to a mithril sword, and a base damage of 90 (compared to 85 of the current highest melee base damage), wearing rockma armour would never be the same again. Step aside bluesteel sword, your no longer needed. All pros will be using a battle club in their combat situations. '''In all seriousness, most end game players use reinforced mithril armour. That's a total of 3 hits with the most basic weapon in the game to kill them. Plus, a tribe of Mithrilites can easily defeat a bluesteel raider, personally I have lead steel/iron tribes that did so. Plus, you just said: "And those true masters who progress to the highest tier of tool, will no longer be better in combat to small groups of people who have weaponry that barely functions."'''

''Note: The modifications about death would make hunger and thirst a very real problem, making being a nomad impossible. You would be forced to settle down. This would really slow down that one cocky pro who gets mithril in 10 minutes (i.e. all wikiers). 'Firstly, don't go to a site and start calling them names. You shouldn't say "All wikiers are cocky", especially to the face of every single person who might take offence. Secondly, nomadic survival would effectively be the only way to go. By settling down and limiting yourself to the resources on the islands, the only tribes would be those with large food supplies that grow on the island. That and the occasional pro who has gone somewhere stupid for bragging rights later. Tl;dr: Don't completely wipe everything someone has done, with no way of getting back to your previous position, without doing everything you just did. People don't like that.

Also, if you want to quote me on this, do it in Blue. Makes it simpler to read.
