I have absolutely no problems having my normal crops stolen, and stealing normal crops from others. I honestly don't get why there is even an issue over this.
I steal gold/daru/kyanite from my guildies everyday, and they steal mine as well. We call each other thieves, ninjas, vultures, then have a good laugh, and do it all over again. Everyday. No exceptions. We sometimes declare that we're camping on a guildie's farm, especially if said guildie is online, just to see how many we can steal before that person harvests it all. It's all done in good nature, we get a good laugh and nobody gets mad. I haven't had a non-guildie complain of my stealing either, and I never did mind when a non-guildie gets my crops.
I know there are many people out there who do not share this 'I-steal-yours-and-you-steal-mine' attitude of mine, and I'm fine with it. I don't agree with it, but I do respect it.
I understand that it's a different story when it comes to these seeds, seeing as how they were supposedly designed to be part of a 'casher' event. For the light-cashers, every seed stolen is a couple of balens less they'd have to spend to get whatever item they want. For the non-cashers, every seed stolen is an extra boost to their chances of getting the mount. I'm not saying that's a legitimate reason for their stealing; I'm saying that everyone has their own reasons for stealing and we should not be so quick to judge. As some have rightfully said, everyone's got their own set of thinking. Even if we disagree, we can and should still show respect.
Anyway, I do not have a problem with guildies stealing my seeds, though I will try to avoid stealing theirs (where possible) or when asked nicely not to. I will steal from non-guildies if I pass by and they're ready for harvesting, and they're free to do the same to me. I do not camp, however, and I agree that those who deliberately camp on your farm just to steal your seeds are a little... obsessed with the game. There's a huge difference between a guildie openly declaring that he's camping on your farm for the giggles, and a creeper who diligently stalks your crops. I'm just thankful that I have not met a persistent farm camper yet.[S1] Temple of Ibalize

ROFLMAO..... this thread is hilarious.
For those that dont want to share crops: choose your farm friends wisely.
For those that DO want to share your crops: Thank God! I'm not online all the time, take my crops!!!! i will take yours. We will make More than the others. Yes, I lose tons to double, even triple picking from my farm..... SO WHAT? I can share, I get back tons in return .... some days I make more, some days I make less. Maybe I will make the mount, maybe I won't. I'm just not that uptight about my farm.Death comes when you hear the Banshee.....

I have no problem with friends taking my crops when i'm away but camping my crops? that's just cheap, and for the guy who's talking about all love and sharing and that you both get more if you share, that's totally untrue, if your ancient seed yields 14 (which mine does) and your "friend" steals, he gets 1 and you get 12, means one lost that no one benefited from, so if both players don't steal from each other they'll benefit each others the most, so no, it's not "sharing", it's stealing.Last edited by infernal13; 04-10-2013, 11:12 AM.

Easy fix would be to not display the time for "Stealers". Just be able to display the timer for your own crop fields no one elses. This would fix the problem from 'campers'. And I am a big stealer/sharer. Guildees also get a good laugh over it too. If someone gripes to me, I gladly remove them.

If someone gets whiny I tell them to delete me, then whoever hits the "strangers" list of my friends list will be permanently added to the blacklist. The whole reason why I have people in my friends list is for the farm, otherwise they're useless and don't need to waste a valuable space.

Again, think about this: just because people think differently than you, and have other priorities, neither makes them "selfish and narrowminded" nor bad people in any regard.
Me personally for instance, I would help friends weed their garden and get rids of bugs - in RL - but NEVER get the Idea to simply take off their crops unasked . Why ? Cos I have no right to do that, and it may be my friends have planned to do something with the crops . If id really need/want something of theirs, id simply walk over and ask - "hey, is it ok if...?"Last edited by luciole78; 04-11-2013, 06:59 PM.

Fundamentally, it boils down to this.
Ancient Spirits are a zero-sum game.
If someone takes your crops, that means you have to spend real cash to get it.
If you take someone's crops, someone has to spend real cash to get it.
In the most basic sense, either you spend cash or someone spend cash.
People who resort to camping others farm are just being
1) misery
2) causing others to spend real cash
If you think it's fine, then it's fine. You have your stand, I have mine.
