yup that happens to me to, but i still voted no. If it is too easy then its no good
Then, come to think of it.. would I want to spend anymore time on digging than I already do?? Not exactly the most thrilling thing in the game is it.. and I was sure the point in gaming was to have fun :confused:
Not everyone can be a true digger. This i guess will help seperate the true diggers from the not so true diggers :P Nah really though, before that bar meant nothing. Now it is at least moving. It is finally working how it should :)

As long as they will lose fame because they harvest, the fame WILL become unbalanced, but just for them. As long they dont care about others, why others should care about them? A punitive method to make them to live the spot and find another, will do the trick imo.
That's a bad way of thinking. A better one would be to reward the players that go out searching for other mat locations. (instead of punishing the ones that don't)

Uhuh, try that when you're lvl 200+ in forest forage and the kami has to be measured in millitolerance all over GoC...

Not true. Go to Eastgrove gate, or Westgrove gate, or near the entrance to highgrove, or really anywhere not within 300m of the kami tp.

There was an old joke that perfectly ilustrates my point. Even my english is bad, I'll do my best to translate it.

A poor man had 6 kids, a wife and a misere hut. They all were living in the hut, who has a single room. You can easly understand that the hut was overcrowded. The poor man goes to the priest looking for an advice:
- Those kids are driving me crazy! The are 6 are making a lot of noise, wife is arguing with me all the time. I need a larger house, father, please help me.
The priest is thinking a bit then he asks:
- Do you have a cow, poor man?
- Yes, I do.
- Good. This cow lives outside, in a stable, right?
- Yes
- Keep it in your house, then come back to see me in one week.
The man goes home and place the cow in the house. Hmm.... 6 kids, a wife AND a cow. After a week he goes to the priest again.
- Did you placed the cow in the house, poor man?
- I did, father.
- How is it?
- Worst, father. Is worst.
- Perfect. Now go home, place the cow in its stable and come to see me tomorow.
The man goes home, take the cow from house and place it in stable. Next day he goes to the priest:
- Did you placed the cow back in stable, poor man?
- I did, father.
- How is it now?
- Is PERFECT. Thank you father!

See what I mean? You can reward someone, but you obtain the same result threatening you can take what he already have. Are just 2 ways to see things.

The main problem with kami tolerance is that low lvl ppl harvest in areas where they aren't supposed to... If a lvl 50 harvester harvests in a 200 area the kami bar seem to go down faster than if a 150 harvester does, so what ppl really have to do is to harvest in an area suited to their lvl..
