One of my (dead) chars met a Ronnie once, who never told he went there by boat, QED...

"Hewy, Brandon... If you don't want to read me flaming you, stay out of this forum."

You can go ahead and be as dumb as you like wont bother me.

hmmm...I have noticed lately that many of the new forum members are from France. Does this mean we cannot make French jokes anymore? *Remembers what happened back on the old Yahoo! Forum when they made fun of the Canadians*

Well, we can always make fun of the Scots. The only Scot that ever played Cantr was Cliff and he isn't around anymore as well as he never cared if we made fun of him. *Remembers skirt incident*

Oh, and crack jokes about the USA all you want. I have good sense of humor and remember most of our national pride comes from jokes cracked at the USA. *Begins singing Yankee Doodle Dandee*

Anyways, I would suggest Emandir and even Pirog to visit the USA someday and not stick to the 'tourist attractions'. Actually go out and see the real America. I know it isn't perfect but I think many foreigners only see the glass window but not what is actually beyond the glass window.

Now onto the subject at hand that was the original purpose of this thread;

I would like to point out that it is possible to survive on healing foods. One of my characters did it once though it takes a long time to actually gather enough to risk traveling anywhere.

Also, there is food. It is just that the French with the new people centric spawning are unlucky enough to spawn in the forests. I imagined that the original spawn point was on a location that had edible food but everyone moved to the forest to gather material and such and then the people centric spawning was added afterwards which really screwed all the newcomers for the French. It just goes to show, as Jos has said before, that it is unrealistic to build communities in forests and if you risk you might get screwed as well as you will screw many other characters that will spawn where your character is.

I encourage the French to have a bad opinion of Amerika because I hate this damn country myself. I can't wait to move to Canada or at least somewhere else! Well, I'd rather live here than France, especially Paris, but that's mainly because they'd all laugh at my French.

That depends on which healing food is available and whether you still haven't given up hope to find real food, i. e. continue travelling. Remember that once you are in bad health, farming takes much, much longer. So even if there is a healing food that would normally allow you to farm enough for more than 2% of strength per day, you can't farm that much per day if you're weak. It's a vicious circle, unless you find a samaritan or real food in addition, because you'll lose more strength than you can regain, per day. Also, travelling goes much more slowly when you're weak. That's the problem in the French woods. One of my characters almost died there, even though he was lucky enough not to be attacked by any of the beasts that they have now introduced there. He reached a city with food just in time.

Well, you now know not to build communities in the forest until you are ready. That is what I think happened here. Back during the days of spawn points everyone moved into the forest right away to collect materials and then the spawning was changed to people centric and most of the French characters were in the forest.

Richard, people-centric spawning has been disabled for a while already for all language groups but English and Dutch ... The others are too small and had not yet developed cities at the spawning points, which resulted in one place getting all spawns.

As far as I know, I'm the only French here, I mean, the only one living in France...

I have good sense of humor

So do I! And considering me not as a real French, you can say anything about those arrogant dirty people!

I would suggest Emandir and even Pirog to visit the USA

Great! I'd love to! Just send me a plane ticket!

Now onto the subject at hand that was the original purpose of this thread

Most of my French chars are just dying...

Well, then why are they spawning in forests?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Doesn't make sense to me...

My French char and one of my Dutch just met each other, they're now both travelling in th French area in search for food

[The Hunter]

What I've heard is that several Dutch char's have travelled into theFrench area and as soon as they strated talking, they've been klilled by the French. We're afraid of meeting them ever since... (Most of this info is OOC tho)

[Wouter_Broekhuizen]

I'm travelling now throug the French area. At least i think i am
But so far i didn't meet anybody, only dead body's and much animals.
Why do you need food with all those animals? There is enough meat for everyone.

Thats correct Hunter, one of my character is killed by the French. Hope this time they don't kill me.

There's one beautiful healing food that lets you get almost 10% worth per day. I love it so very very much.

[Wouter_Broekhuizen]

Yeah, but that healing food doesn't grow in the forest right?
