If someone you don't know shows up in town there are a few steps you should follow.

1. Go somewhere safe and look their name up on reddit.

2. Do not engage in conversation unless you have reason to believe they won't cause you harm.

3. If they are within chat range but have not tripped snitches do not talk, if they already know you're there absolutely do not give your location or the location of anything in the area.

4. If they are tripping snitches get your best armor and weapon and find them. If they are petty griefers you'll scare the shit out of them with full enchanted diamond. If they're friendly then they'll just say hi and be on their way. If they're part of an organized griefer group, we're fucked anyways.

5. If you don't know someone and they're not a citizen of the U3P acknowledge them but don't be friendly. The last thing we want is random people thinking they're more than welcome in town.

Pella is private for a reason. We've been griefed unsuccessfully twice since we were founded largely due to our privacy. Let's keep it that way.
