I've played every character I spawned but some of them died fairly young, either killed by other people or in one instance, animals. If I've killed off a character, they've been at least closer to 30.

Randomly capitalised words.

Can you give an example? In four days, maybe? ;)

I can give an example, sure...
"I am currently gathering Potatoes, and I have some Leather for trade."
Now that I think about it, there may be a pattern to them, but they are definitely needlessly capitalised.
It's a made up example, so the four day rule doesn't apply, and you get the gist.
Oh, German isn't one of the languages I am familiar with, so I can't really comment, but I suspect the owner of such posts to be a native speaker. However, that is nothing more than a highly educated guess.

In German, noun's are capitalized, so that could be it... Though it might be something else, I'm not an expert :p

Someone playing by phone and their autocorrect adding odd capitals? Or that player's way of emphasizing words. I'll take a few randomly capped words over someone who doesn't bother with any. :lol:

Haha, nice one... but... they're not "learned" words. Quite ordinary words, actually. I don't know about the emphasizing point, though.
Oh, for the record, I am annoyed by the random capitals and the lack of capitals both. :twisted: :wink:

On the other hand, people who assume a lively newspawn with a personality that is not perfectly polite is necessarily evil and react to them as such. :?

I love active newspawns with personality... It is those who ignore laws and think they should be able to act any way they want without repercussions because they are an active newspawn with a personality. Hitting, yelling, name calling.. abusive projects.. slander.... That isn't personality.. that is simply a trouble maker.
