" The only things we ask of our members are: do not kill other survivors without good reason;"

Just out of curiosity, does this seem inconsistent to you, or was having a survivor group that has been in the suburb since 2009 start to ask questions shown here: http://iamscott.net/1392310126321.html somehow "good reason" for a PKing with a false accusation here: http://iamscott.net/1392319893286.html ? Huntress had Woodbury tags on and changed them to owner of club golding/woodbury ally after the PK. Quite frankly I would not be surprised if this is not the original Huntress- lots of parody alts and zergy types have suddenly appeared in Wyke Hills. I guess my point is why is it so important to fake your intentions?

The MOB, PKnights (arguably pro survivor), the Flowers of Decay- all hostile groups, are among the best in the game. And if you are going to take over a suburb, why not do it the right way like The Democratic Armed Republic of Independent Suburbs (DARIS). That really would be something big and clever. --Belisarius17 18:51, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

I was kind of hoping that would go ignored, but alas it has been brought up. TheHuntress acted on her own and without the approval of Woodbury. If I had been active before her, I would have gladly answered ScoutEric's questions. I informed all present NOT to attack any survivor groups unless attacked first. She should have gotten the message. I am aware of the "original" The Huntress and she swears it is not her, so be that as it may.
Regarding the questions, we are here for the best intentions of the suburb: Kill biters and PKers. Also, Lori is no longer a member of Woodbury. She is somewhere up north, I believe.
But in TheHuntress's defense, she was probably annoyed/enraged when she saw that Club Golding had been lit up yet again and that someone was (suspiciously to her, presumably) questioning us.
Also, what intentions are we trying to fake? We have taken the suburb as our home, and that is all there really is to it. The only human being I have killed was suspicious onlooker because he was repeatedly warned not to light up Club Golding. He was given a fair warning, and acted anyway.
Furthermore, we have no desire to kill anyone who doesn't join Woodbury. --The Governor 19:15, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
Well, you know, if your character was Daryl Dixon I would feel much better about the whole situation- but The Governor on the show is a smooth talking guy....who keeps fish tanks full of undead heads for lava lamps and his zombie daughter in a cage in a secret room. I am not even going to mention the ruthless ambush of National Guardsmen... or the fact that he shoots his own people ....you see my point? However- given the the courtesy of your response I appreciate your explanation and thank you for your clarification. Now- in the spirit of honesty...you do not have any fish tanks, right?--Belisarius17 20:57, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
Well, if I was Daryl I wouldn't have Woodbury, now would I? The fish tanks with heads were merely war trophies; things to look at to be a reminder of how the world has changed. Also, those National Guardsmen were a legitimate threat and you know it. You wouldn't like it if your people refused your orders, now would you? I don't think so.
And the only fish tanks with biter heads you'll find will be of our enemies. --The Governor 14:48, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Objection and Suggestion

Just for the sake of the record this is what you just posted: "It is suggested that all of the surrounding buildings and squares (inside and outside) in Wyke Hills be tagged with our special graffiti message: Welcome to Woodbury. - The Governor. All members are encouraged to search for spray cans and make sure the tagline is sprayed around the entire town.If every square has our tag, it is suggested to start spraying directions to Woodbury in surrounding towns/suburbs. "

Again, just for the sake of the record, I will voice what I am certain will not be the last independent voice to object in Wyke Hills and simply tell you I find this is a clear violation of the "Like a good neighbor" clause of the Statefarm Wyke Hills Group Health Insurance Policy. I have notified the Department of Kevan of this violation and I fully expect your group to be sternly warned that there is a difference between being a good neighbor and being a good neigh-boor ( I would expect that to take place in a timely Urban Dead fashion....say...October...of 2017). I know that the potential loss of someones group health insurance may seem extreme but I will assure you that there are some excellent independent providers that would be accepted at Julie General Hospital, which I believe was one of the city's psychiatric hospitals (not that I have any prior knowledge of that- I wear the straightjacket because they were out of 44 longs at Buckley...that and it helps me feel...secure).

And once more just for the record, since you guys are, "here for the best intentions of the suburb", may I make a suggestion? Would you consider putting some useful information in your tags regarding cade levels and entry points along with your message of welcome? While "Welcome to Woodbury" has a fine prepackaged "Maybury RFD" feel to it- it really does not help the newbies find Entry Points, Revive Points or low caded resource buildings.

In the spirit of bonhomme and to welcome your prosurvivor group to Wyke Hills here is a handy map of the correct cade levels so you all can help your fellow survivors and low level players thrive in Wyke Hills!

Not to be rude, but I honestly am not sure what you are saying. How is this a problem?
Most of our members already know about entry points and the like, so marking them are kind of redundant/boring. There is also not enough character room to add barricade levels to our tags. It is not against the rules to spray our tag everywhere we can.
We are already familiar with the barricade plan. It also seems someone has over-barricaded our church entry point to our mall. --The Governor 20:21, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
No offense taken- I was trying to be funny, so sorry if my quirky sense of humor confused the issue. If I might explain- It is a problem because not everyone in Wyke Hills is in your group-there are lots of independents moving through the burb all the time. Particularly, new low level players that you might want to recruit into your group will spawn in the burb and get stuck outside. Might I suggest "WelcomeToWoodbury-TheGov VSB"? Or "VSB entry-Thanks The Governor" Or "JoinWoodbury-ThroughThisDoor"?- I think there are 36 characters in the tag slot- but I might be wrong. A little experimentation would confirm that- also, about the overcading issue- this has always been a huge problem in Wyke Hills. Might I suggest you consider decading the darks near your safehouse or even better decading Club Golding itself? Those are ways that we have dealt with those problems in the past- and there are very few zeds in Wyke these days.
As a heads up- the following EPs are all overcaded at the moment so you might want to warn your folks.

I see now, sorry for being so serious. It's just that you can never tell who is joking these days. We will consider and try to incorporate barricade levels in our tags. Thanks for the suggestion. --The Governor 12:54, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Unofficially, spamming messages and spray can graffiti over established cade levels, revive point notifications, and signatures of RR Clinics (which while not all groups support (establishing it's own discussion)), constitutes as griefing in some of the larger groups around Malton. Now Eric (AKA --Belisarius17 ) has made the Wulves position clear, but as a member of the Wulves, I would like to say that while it may not be a shooting offense like the poster below mine, this is getting out of hand.

A lot of new people, travelers, and wanderers use Wyke Hills (one of the reasons I chose it), and they need to know their information about barricade levels, entry points and the like. Claiming a suburb, even one that is gray on the map, doesn't often end well for people who fail to take the suburbs previous inhabitants to heart. They've been fighting over Fort Perryn (aka Fort Feral) for years and that's a zombie vs. human group fight.

Even if people start agreeing that Wyke Hills is now Woodbury (and most won't I'd venture to say), you should still attempt to keep in tradition with the 'rule set' adopted by most players for fair play, friendly paly, and the like. Elsewise we get to treat you like the 'Governor' and stab eyes out and the like with our katana's... which would be fun... just saying. But if this does keep up, it's on the DNR lists, and the black lists, and the gray lists and next thing you know your driving a tank to our Mall and demanding we let you live there, after we vacate to wherever the hell we want to.

tags

you folks need to stop covering other groups tags. You can refer to the suburb of Wyke Hills as whatever the hell you please, but quit smearing our turf with spam graffiti. Whatever rebuttal you have in mind, we're no less than 6 years senior to "woodbury" and would appreciate not having our toes stepped on. Jack S13 T! PC 06:03, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Well, we don't care. If you take further action (i.e. shooting us), you will be reported as PKers. We've done nothing wrong. --The Governor 12:51, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
not caring sounds like an argument I would use. No, it shouldn't come to shooting - but who would you report us to? the DEM has no power in Wyke. Perhaps we can agree to some tagging boundaries. Jack S13 T! PC 15:56, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
Well even if there's no one to report you to, I doubt you would want to turn into murderers over a few spraycans. Would you? What kind of tagging boundaries do you suggest? --The Governor 16:08, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

I think a good starting point would be a minimum boundary of 1 block surrounding S13, and Wulves headquarters (St. Max, and Wolfendal Arms respectively). Obviously "Woodbury" is essential to your group identity, and I wouldn't want to suck the fun out of RP'ing and wot not. I'm sure there's a way we could divy up the rest of the burb too. suggestions? Jack S13 T! PC 15:17, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

What you said sounds reasonable. I would like a map made of what areas you want all to yourselves if it isn't too much trouble. If your groups ever disband or go inactive, we should then be able to tag those areas. All of this bickering can be avoided. We have enough to concern ourselves with in the form of biters and PKers. --The Governor 13:37, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, I suppose I could do that. hell, I'd almost be willing to tag some areas "welcome to Woodbury, home of Section 13" I'll send a map in a couple days when I have time to put something together. Jack S13 T! PC 21:11, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
