Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-24108228-20140623224551

Bored again. We're overrun by bad suggestions, which are either constantly prodded by an overprotective owner, or denied by everyone but a side discussion is keeping it onto the activity.

Plus, we keep on getting our old .exes necroed so new people can post unoriginal/impossible solutions. =Survival 303 Etiquette= Away from ranting about the forums, whenever I'm playing survival 303 I'm always getting irritated about the general attitude towards death, overall stubbornness, and most of all, hostility of weak tribes that settle at spawnpoints. I must have spawned at bento 6 times now to have been instantly dispatched by a group of 2-3 people weilding stone spears. By the time I have steel to kill them all, most, if not all, of the tribe has left.

So that got me thinking. What would be the best player? What makes a survivor fun to play with? So I devised a list of little things you should do to make playing with you extra fun.
 * 1) Above all else, fear death. When threatened, submit to demands (unless you can defeat them). It's really annoying when someone doesn't take death seriously, and instead stores everything and laughs. It's really fun when they do. Make the world a better place.
 * 2) Run only when given no other choice. If they want you to do something for them, do it instead of legging it. If they only want you dead, and will not compromise for any form of offering, you have an excuse to run, as not doing so would break the most important rule.
 * 3) Dont store during combat situations. Similarly, don't retool during combat situations. Accept losses, don't be an immature cheat. Sure, you can murder the heck out of them afterwards, but don't try and cheat your way out of loss on death. It's your fault your losing.
 * 4) Follow these rules, no matter the opponent. They may be a cheating bugger who retools, stores when you approach, doesn't mind dying if they don't lose anything, but stay calm. Your the one who gets the approval of the server, not them.
 * 5) Fight to win. Remember, the first and most important rule is to avoid death. Therefore, you shouldn't get into a fight without knowing you will win. So when someone does kill you, don't charge back with the same weaponry. Upgrade your weapons, make sure you wont die this time.
 * 6) Avoid raiding with no reason. You can raid if you feel they have bad intentions. You can raid if they raided first. You can raid if they kill people who arrive at their island. You cannot raid a peaceful tribe that does nothing wrong, helps people, yet is vunerable. Ideally, protect and avenge the weak, although that's not entirely necessary.

What do you think the etiquette of survival 303 is? What would make the game a better if everyone followed (or at least tried to follow) it?
