It’s not a trap. You know it’s there, If you don’t want to be blasted once the gates close you should not warp in. simple as.. There is no doubt that when the doors close, it is because there is PVP going on, which I do not want, thus closing the doors. If you are stupid enough to be one of the players I want dead and then TP into my warp, then I will kill you with my cannon aimed at the warp – again, there is no doubt the cannon is aimed at the warp, so it shouldn’t surprise you.

Either way, if it were a trap, then so what? traps are allowed in Pirate craft, If you don’t like the warp, stop using it, I’m not forcing you. I own the town, so I decide when to close it, how I want to close it and how I want to defend it, should someone try to break through the cage.

And to le Koi; No I’m not saying; Kill me once more m80 and I call harass, no.. Just no. read my post and stop being offended by stuff I haven’t said. I’m not trying to scare anyone, I’m stating that I think what Chamber aims to do is rude, because I have done nothing to try to provoke it, all I do is defend my customers along with the shopkeepers, as well as my town.

Ok I believe that this has been blown a bit too far out of proportion as to what’s being said here. Yesterday there was a large bloodbath at warp trade, no larger than any we have seen at warp food or shop may I add. These bloodbaths last one day and are over, and as such are considered usually too small a thing to set a death trap for. Now this being said, I believe Bislo has the right to make what he wants on his land. But I do not believe in any way that a death trap is the way to go. If you really had wanted to stop conflict, instead of creating a gated room in which people can warp to be killed by the supposed guards of the warp, implementation of “safe rooms” like the one’s set up in warp food would have been adequate to save lives. I do not see the reason that yesterday’s pvp of which has been seen at the likes of warp shop and warp food is enough to call for such drastic measures. I may have pvped there yesterday along with many other people, but to create a death trap at the warp’s spawn over an event that has been seen at multiple warps before this is slightly absurd…

P.S. Also I’d like to ask the question. What happens if the “warp killer” is in the cage with 2 or more other innocents? Just fire the canon like today?

Just want to make the obvious clear here, it’s neither a death trap, nor a trap; it’s effectively a gate to prevent people entering the warp. And yes, a cannon can be fired at it, but only if the person poses a risk to the town, eg the plan on sieging/are killing shoppers/are on KOS.

Just making that clear for you all.

Hmm there is a lot of flame in this post. Dang near singed a few pixels out of my screen. So I’m gonna keep it short. While i think being able to close off your warp for maintenance is all well and good having a cannon pointed at the…lets call it a “Lobby” makes it a trap. Fine block off your warp and run around the Lobby in circles taunting them all day but call it what it is. It’s a trap…made by one of the servers most renown trap makers _Lego_. Also because i know it will come up that they can just do /trapped while invisible go ahead and build a redstone alert system in the cage that will make a ding go off around the port when someone enters.

It’s not built by _Lego_ no, It’s built by me. It’s so sad to see that I cannot do anything to please all, but sadly for the pvp’ers, I’m NOT on your team, I’m on the traders team. They will be protected because from what I hear, chamber is now afraid to warp into warp trade, which is exactly what I want.

Also, another point to make – Why don’t you use a boat to reach the town if you don’t like using the warp? I’m not hindering anyone from entering the town, I’m limiting the ability to instantly hop in during a fight.

If you happen to warp in during a fight, I know you will try to escape the cage, cuz it is by all means possible, why? I’m a fair person, so I put holes in it. If you notice, also, the tower I built has cannons to defend in every direction, they even point to the sea in case there are hostile ships approaching. Therefore the “cannon trap” is not what you think it is. I’ve designed it all to make it safe for my guards to defend against God-armours, while they themselves don’t need armour – “that’s unfair” you might say, but it really isn’t. It’s my town so my rules, if you want to oppose my rule, then you can fight me on my terms. Try breaking through the cage or taking the long way in boat, I don’t care. This is to stop the disgusting killings of people who are NEVER ready for when you come sneaking and hack them in the back with your sharpness V sword and matching armour.

It’s just so very small of you to actively hunt the easy prey, that’s the truth.

I’m not letting you have the ability to warp in multiple times with several sets of god armour to spare. If you die, go in the cage and try your luck with my cannons, or walk the long way, End.

Stop whining abut the cage. It is not to limit the right of travel in public warps, it is not a trap for me to gain free stuff from anyone that comes in, it is not to spark this debate – It is to give myself and my defenders a tool to stop warp killers. Like it or not.. cage stays.

And manda, yes the PVP safety shelters, I’ve also made those – two of them so far to be exact. They are marked with Emerald blocks.

My goal is to win back warp trade once more from people who think they can step on the traders and shop owners, people who also does other things on this server than kill, kill, kill.. The terror of going somewhere to trade has been way to high these last months, but its over now. I’m shutting down the kill fest. Warp Trade is PVP-Free, respect that, or feel my TNT in your face. I have NO compassion left towards warp killers, none. all gone.

This is absolutely awesome. Why does all the exciting things happen after I quit?

Since everyone pretty much covered the whole topic and I’m not picking sides, (since both sides have great points that directly oppose each other’s root cause), I’ll just say a few points:

Chamberlain1 is without a doubt not using /warp trade to pick on the weak and innocent. His intentions and actions are not of a “bully” or “harasser”. Chamberlain1 has literally assassinated almost every active player on the server, whether they’re painfully weak or undeniably strong. As a matter of fact, his primary targets are usually players that have a big name on the server for their pvp skills, and he’s made even the strongest pirates rage. Just wanted to make that clear.

I never thought I’d see the day Bislo1 would become a badass. His decision to protect his own warp is not only respectable, but admirable. Although Chamberlain1 makes some fair points about the cannon/cage combo on an ideological level, according to my understanding Bislo1’s cannon/cage combo is NOT against the rules by any means. As a matter of fact, it’s a pretty damn good idea.

I do feel that Chamberlain1’s point on warps requires consideration, however, it also appears as though GodsDead is working on new updates that will inevitably help deal with these issues anyway.

All in all, I’m just a spectator in all this. And as a spectator I must say, just the conflict between two players who are powerful in two different ways is incredible to watch and adds a rich flavor to the story of PirateCraft, (save all the excess drama lol). I might log in to witness the cage!
