Over the past 2 days a grand total of 9 players have been pearled. Mostly for raiding chests/jumping into restricted areas neglecting signs.

Over the past few months, more established players, and I use that term lightly, have been joking with new players to "jump into obby holes". This shouldn't be done.

New players coming here need to understand that raiding is not a viable playstyle anymore unless you have an army, fully geared, and ready to fight established nations in this word with the force of vaults, ice roads, and snitches behind them.

Raiding any nation right now is a sure bet to wind up pearled and unable to travel in the overworld, as is neglecting exclusion zones. If someone suggests you do it-don't listen to them. This isn't 2b2t and you're not going to get anything of value since most smart people store their items in chest vaults, alt vaults, or in bunkers that take a long time to break and are fully snitched and bastioned-meaning they can see you doing it even if they are not online due to kira relays.

I'd rather not have any more newfriends get pearled day 1 just because someone in ! misinformed them, or they think this is 2b2t. We're technically anarchy if you view humanities natural state as anarchy with no government. The thing is-the governments here are powerful, have laws, and will act on those laws.
