I’ve been contemplating for a while now - exactly what a human’s life is worth. And as I sit here writing my thoughts, I wonder to myself, could we ever quantify that existence? Is there a way for us to numerically come to a consensus that there is such a thing? That there is a standard for one life to compare to? How would we then dictate which life would be any more or any less than this caliber. Would we have to? Or is it all more of the same? People coming and going, a tiny spark in a never ending explosion. Ghosts for the realm of the living.

I’m beside myself trying to understand what this all means. How am I supposed to react? Should I grieve longer or has it been long enough? Is it wrong to hold onto hope when their faces are already fading from my mind? A distant shimmer of an image as I sink further into deep and quiet waters. I didn’t hear his screams. I didn’t see his anguish. I didn’t hold him as the lights died out in the windows of his soul. Maybe he passed as silent as we came to exist in this world. I will never know, and maybe that’s for the best.

I’m sorry that our time was short and our friendship, even shorter. I promised myself when the world splintered, that I wouldn’t feel this way again. That I wouldn’t feel the pain of losing someone again. But here I am. I have yet to shed a tear but my heart has bled a waterfall. They say that “time heals all wounds,” but time is no healer. I have waited and waited and in the end, time is the reason for my torment. You never came back.
 
I hope you’re in a better place now, Vega. I hope you’re with the loved ones you’ve lost. I’m sorry we couldn’t come for you, and it’ll haunt me for the rest of my life. But, I hope your last breath was a sigh of relief.

Character Spotlight 2: Sean Gary - Dead End
 
 
Name: Sean Gary
Aliases: None
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Origins: Columbus, Ohio
Status: Deceased

The ambulance raced down the highway from Muldraugh to Rosewood. Over half a tank of gas, but no food. The young man driving it was starving, had been for days. He needed to get something to eat and soon.
 
Going 100mph down the highway, he made his way to a gas station. The dead were everywhere but he had no food and no options. In he went, only to find nothing but sodas left on the shelf. The enemy was closing in fast, he had to run out of the store. He spotted a police cruiser he hadn't noticed at first. Some kind of gun would be useful and there was always a shotgun or rifle in the back of every cruiser. He popped the trunk only to find a radio. It seemed pretty high tech, he hoped to reach people who had supplies with it.
 
It was a lot heavier than he thought it would be and the man was bitten on his left hand trying to haul it away. He managed to get into the ambulance just in time, or so he thought. He put the radio in the passenger’s seat and zoomed off.
 
Going 100mph through the woods wasn’t what killed him. The lightpost did. This ambulance of his had no headlights, he had to use his ambulance’s emergency lights instead to see. The irony was painful.
 
He died on impact. The driver side door swung open. The bite didn’t take long to turn him. Out he fell from the cabin of the vehicle, another shambling corpse in the rainy night.

The Deadlands Roleplay Server
 
 
Features:
 
We are a 24 slot 24/7 roleplay server with regular maintenance and admin supervision. Persistent community driven lore with no lore resets. We have a Community Forum where you can apply to our whitelisted server. We have a Discord Server where you can reach out to other players or ask questions. We allow players to create their own unique stories. We enforce our rules to keep things balanced and fair.  
 
Lore:
 
It all went to hell so fast. There wasn't time for riots. There wasn't time for war. We just died that fast. Nevertheless, some of us survived. Now we struggle in a world with spotty electricity and water. Without the internet and cell service. Without food from air-conditioned grocers. Now we scavenge, the land and each other.
 
Will we survive and rebuild civilization? Or… is this how we die?
 
 
Mods:
 
Hydrocraft ORGM TNT Natural CLock More Build Necroforge FR Used Cars FR Smaller Cars Player Descriptions Gluttony's Profession Mod No Luck  
 
Rules:
 
Be nice and play nice outside of the game. Do not bring in-game grievances into the forums or Discord. Actively trying to exploit rules is not allowed. Characters must have a realistic name or a nickname (ex: xXx420blazeitxXx is not permitted). Characters must not steal from other forms of media (ex: playing as Rick Grimes is not permitted). Characters must be 16+ years old. Players may only have 2 active characters at a time. Do not mechanical game (ex: if your character is a scrawny teenager, they probably can't carry 200lbs worth of supplies). Do not force actions upon another player without giving them a chance to react (ex: powergaming, having a character put another character into a choke hold without any sort of played out combat). Do not use real world knowledge about in game events in your roleplay (ex: metagaming, knowing a characters name by reading their name tag in game rather than learning it in character). No excessively offensive characters (ex: playing a one dimensional racist character who's only real character trait is running around calling people racist terms). No erotic roleplay. You must use the in game safehouse system to claim a single house. Each faction member can claim a house. Limit 1 per character. Construction projects must obey the laws of physics (ex: no sky bases). PvP is permitted but must follow all PvP rules listed in our forums.  
Notice: These rules are subject to change. For our complete and most up to date rule set can be found here on our forums. 
 
If you have any questions about our server, Discord, forums, rules or admins then please feel free to ask them here!

I'm not here to start a war on a forum, but I feel that a few falsehoods need to be pointed out from your post Jack.
 
1.) Jack you were blatantly caught duping items.  This is the reason you were banned the last time, I am not privy to the previous times you were banned.
2.) We do not have pay to win on the server.  We do offer some cosmetic perks, forum perks and other non-game changing benefits for donations to help pay for the server.
3.) All players are welcome to join in the fun.  We do not discriminate against new players, in fact, some of our best have joined the server recently.
 
We have problems like just about every server out there, but I felt it fair to point out the incorrect information you have here.

I think this is a pretty great idea.

I agree with the second point, cars are a little too safe right now. I think I've had one serious accident in a car that involved lodged glass, but I don't repair windshields or windows anymore and that's prevented it from happening again. Typically the most damage I've taken is half a character's overall health, but I just eat some food and drive for awhile and everything's gravy. I also don't repair hoods, because quite frankly, I'd rather murder zombies like a battering ram with full impunity than have to worry about fixing a part that, as far as I can tell, has little to no impact on protecting the vehicle itself or the engine. If it does have an impact, it's small enough that a person can drive for hours before needing to replace a hood. The only parts that really seem necessary to keep up with are the batteries, the engine itself, and the tires. I know loot is supposed to fall out of trunks with damaged or missing trunk lids, but I've also never seen that actually happen in practice. And I'd probably be more willing to replace missing windows if zombies could bite or scratch through doors that don't have them installed (if they can already, I haven't seen it).
 

I mean, they could just add a numerical value field in the character selection process for a character's age and not attach any features to it in the immediate future, at least until, or if, they're ever ready to. I don't see how that would be difficult to make happen, but I imagine it's simply not a priority. Still, it's bothered me for a long time also, so I tend to ignore it all together.

SERVER NAME: Old Dawn RP



 We’re currently opening up a few applications to our server. We are a mid-range RP server, that focuses on enjoying RP, while enjoying the game as well. We have a light rule set, and are just looking for a few more players to round out our server.

Our Prime Player base tends to be in the evenings and mid-day weekends, but we are open all day so that players can play and join our Australian and European players.

If you’re interested in joining a small server, where you can tell your own story and enjoy the game, feel free to register and give us a look.

So, we recently had a hard reset on the server I play (New Dawn RP, if you guys wanna look it up) from build 28 to 29. The changes are amazing, and I'm really enjoying myself. Our group built a new structure to replace our old one, so I thought I'd share it like I have the others:
 

I made this several updates ago, but I can't remember which exactly. It's out in the middle of the woods between Muldraugh and the giant train station, fairly deep in.

I built these, and had helping building the second, on the New Dawn RP server (Build 28).
