Talk:Vinetown

The Dinovan Monument

Can we stop killing zombies at the revive point? That would be great. I've been killed and headshot at the top of the queue for 2 days now. I realize that a zombie takeover of the suburb is an ever-looming threat when the suburb is yellow, but really. And on the topic of the revive point, is anybody going to do something to the Revive Point section at the bottom of the main page? I'm not familiar with the format. --Davnik 20:33, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

Post your profile ID here and the helpful survivors in the area can add you to our contacts lists and pick you out from the crowd. There have been some XP-harvesting blowhards zombie-tipping but there are also some RP-clogging rotters around who need to be kept face-down.--Mallrat ^{TSI TKS CTD} 13:31, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Game Show returning

Hello, sometime ago I tried to start up a game show. It died quickly when vinetown was destroyed, but now I'm coming back to once again try. Hope to see you there, I'll probably start in two weeks time. Ok, zeds are in vinetown, so postponed a bit. But soon, I'm here and looking.--Seth1r8 22:42, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Big bash comes ever closer. Im in contact with 3 survivor groups in vinetown. if you want advice or support let me know. Or a zombie who wants a hug.--Rosslessness 19:49, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

November 18th, 2007

Is there anybody out there? It's been a while and everything seems to be boarded up tight, are any survivor groups keeping the area under control? I just woke up and I'm trying to make contact with my old groups... who's in charge of this area? --Daniel Kilbane 03:32, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello Dan, I am the leader of the Outbreak Control Unit and we operate in Vinetown right now. I am sure that the groups list for Vinetown is out of date since i have never seen most of them ever in the area. However, M.E.R.C.Y. are a good group to be around in Vinetown. We happen to be allies with them because we have similar objectives. If you want to look for either of us, look around the cathedral, ling boulevard, goodford road, the local hospital or even the cork building. Us or M.E.R.C.Y. will always have operatives at these areas.

Hey. I was the leader of the AoD, (or what was left of it) for a while before it just sort of faded out of existance. I don't know if there are any members still around or what's going on. All I know is that I'm stuck almost dead in my old haunt at Caunt Street PD. M.E.R.C.Y. is still around? I remember when they started, kind of suprised that they're still around but I'm not complaining. I listen to the old Caunt Street PD Radio frequency (27.32) and the old Distgruntled Heroes frequency (27.88) but have no way to transmit, currently. Send me a message here or over those lines if you can. --Daniel Kilbane 19:27, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Old Shit

Okay, being serious here. Who the hell is going to look at a "Barricading plan" when a huge zombie attack is being mounted? Also, moreso being worst case scenario both groups of the RRF show up. Survival instinct will kick in, and everything will most likely go to EHB, with no VS, and everyone without free running will be screwed.

Kudos to those who made the plan, but I'm just saying, that most people are not going to follow it in the event of a huge zombie massacre.

Also, while I do approve of having a revive point, we should have kept it secret between the members of the VSA and other survivor-friendly groups of Vinetown, because now that it's publicly known we are going to have revive-killers and rotters camping all over the damn thing.

By saying this as an individual survivor, and having nothing to do with my group by saying this statement, the Vinetown survivors should really recant their stance. EDIT: Also, while the VSA supports the Uniform Barricading Policy, and most survivor groups do, the way this looks seems like the VSA is shoving that policy and the barricading plan down everyone's throats here. Just thought I'd point this out.

EDIT EDIT: Once again I say this as an INDIVIDUAL SURVIVOR, not representing any group.DarkShines

I'd just like to state that in a full-scale zombie assault, they're ain't gonna be any buildings at EHB, let alone VSB. Mostly cause they'll all be DWO. --Singular quartet 02:28, 7 April 2006 (BST)

Yeah, true that on the zombie massacre thing.

But what about the state of the revive point? People are already complaining about rotters camping on it and revive-killers as well. Maybe you guys could change up the revive point weekly or something. Because at 30AP (20 to manufacture, 10 to use) per revive we can't afford to lose needles. DarkShines

The point of a Revive Point is that it's always there: A none drifting location that a person can always come to. -Singular quartet 01:44, 9 April 2006 (BST)

Yeah but a revive point can't be called a revive point if no one is able to get properly revived there. DarkShines

This is also true. -Singular quartet

why not just have your members only revive with a profile on hand so that you dont accidentally try to revive a rotter? yes, I realize that that means DNA scanning every zed at the revive point, but would you rather have to put out effort, or have a crapload of broken needles? -Matthew231

Props

Nice updates guys! o.o Keep up the good work. I really like the new charts and such.--GrayscaleRain 22:27, 1 August 2006 (BST)

Mall Tour '07

Such a pity, we thought your mall might have put up atleast a small fight but.. We were wrong. Our last 4 malls have been a breeze and all 4 have fallen within a day of the attack. Personally i was hoping for a decent seige but you guys didnt deliver. Well looks like the rest of your suburb will be eaten up before we move on. Have fun! Zaneus 03:32, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I can't speak for everyone, but I know many people's strategy was to hide in the surrounding buildings and wait for you guys to move on, as was a viable tactic in the earlier malls. I guess you guys had the same idea, huh?--Grigori 23:35, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

RP listing

Hey, I'm tinkering with a new method of dealing with the RP listings from the List of Revivification Points, and I'm using Vinetown as an example (since my group serves its only listed RP). If you don't like it, or think it needs to be changed, please just discuss it, for the time being, as I need to keep it up for the folks who maintain the RP list page to take a look and see how the system works (or doesn't work). Thanks! --Morgan Blair 17:41, 28 August 2007 (BST)

Newb...

I am currently positioned somewhere in vinetown, and wish to join one of the Pro-surrvior groups in the town. By the way, where in town is the best place to find weapons(guns,axes, ect)?

Malls. And there is no good groups there. Join the zombies or PKers. It's more fun and you can do a lot more. --Sonny Corleone ^{RRF DORIS CRF pr0n} 02:07, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

There are two groups in Vinetown as far as I am aware of, M.E.R.C.Y. and the Outbreak Control Unit. As for areas to find various items, any of the PD's can be utilized (presuming you do not have the Shopping and Bargain Hunting skills to utilize in the Mall). If you do not have Free Running, Caunt Street Police Dept [82, 67] & Hartleys Boulevard Police Dept [83, 68] should be maintained at VSB++ (thus allowing entrance). - Blessed Guard 04:20, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, Blessed Guard. Your valued assistance, as always, is appreciated. Yes, there are a few good, active pro-survivor groups in Vinetown. In addition to those mentioned, we also have The Blackhawk Nation and MDK in the area. In addition to the PD's mentioned, Ling Blvd PD [82,63] is also designated as VSB+2. If there's anything else you would like assistance with, please don't hesitate to contact me.--Sister Rita 20:06, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

The previous posts are propaganda. --Sonny Corleone ^{RRF DORIS CRF pr0n} 22:44, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

I know. What your saying is propoganda too.--Dedling 03:22, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

But mine is better --Sonny Corleone ^{RRF DORIS CRF pr0n} 03:25, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

I felt like making a new group so if you guys want you could just check it out here

Trying not to step on any toes...

I represent a small survivor group that's planning to operate out of the Vinetown area. We desire our own safehouse/HQ, and so as not to step on any toes, I thought I'd ask if there are any already barricaded buildings that aren't in heavy use that various locals wouldn't mind us using. While we'd favor a very strongly barricaded building, we can live with an extremely barricaded one, with those of us without FR operating out of Ling until they can get FR. Any suggestions? We were considering Attrill Bank or The Godfry Museum, but Attrill looks to be at least semi-occupied, though the wiki currently states it's empty.

Besides the fact that not one single structure in Vinetown is barricaded right now, I don't know of anybody who claims either the Godfry Museum or Attrill Bank. I know that the Armored Squadron works very closely with Ling. While I'm not 100% sure about Godfry, I'm positive nobody would mind you in Attrill bank. Besides zombies, of course. I think I've seen you around, before, but no matter. More questions? --Jonorok 20:32, 14 April 2008 (BST)

I tried the exact same thing (setting up a HQ) but stupid pkers kept coming and killing us when we were offline. If you want you can setup near whish towers (MY groups HQ) we got 2 warehouses,A church, and junkyard that are not in use by alot of survivors. Vinetown Map Or Reason towers its EHB but has no one in it currently. Ill setup a generator and fuel it soon so it will be good to go if you decided to go there.--Cortez250 03:05, 22 August 2008 (BST)

As a long term independent in Vinetown I can say any building in the whole of the NE can be yours.--Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 10:31, 22 August 2008 (BST)

Looking for a group to join...

UKmercenary 1996

-I'd like to know if there are any groups that are willing to let me join. I'm a noob but I've got a radio, pistol, flak jacket, and a crowbar. i only have a military skill of basic firearms training i am currently holed up in the Daniels museum. if nobody responds to this by 6:45 June 5 , i will be moving to reason towers & Mitchem Mall where i will hole up in the mall, tower, warehouse, or factory according to the barricades current status. EDIT: I'm looking for a pro-survivor group. sorry for any misconception

If you can see this, meet me at the Gelasius General Hospital--Calvinxbao 22:00, 27 May 2010 (BST)

Try MERCY, they usually congregate at Gelasius and are always looking to recruit new members.--Mallrat ^{TSI TKS CTD} 17:11, 29 May 2010 (BST)

Blackhawk Nation is dead.

Just making it offcial. I'll be removing it from the active groups, if you don't mind. It's been a long run but this is it.

  Blackhawk Nation
        RIP

--Dedling 18:40, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Hail and farewell! Just before the MOB showed up. Your timing was a bit off, but I'm sure it's for the best...--Mallrat 15:27, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Honestly, the group was dead for months before I'd made this announcment. I'd say May or June was our actual death kneel. I'll still be keeping the tag though, "The last Member of the Blackhawk Nation sounds too kickass to trade in.--Dedling 21:23, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

We are on the way back. We are on the confirmed group list again and are currently reorganizing. It is good to be back. --Cheveyo 14:58, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Sheesh guys make your minds up already! Where am I supposed to put this wreath now?--Mallrat ^{TSI TKS CTD} 17:16, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Real life took over for awhile. But, we are back now.--Cheveyo 04:38, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

We have moved to Shackleville. Good luck with Vinetown.--Cheveyo 23:05, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Shackleville needs the help. All the best!--Mallrat ^{TSI TKS CTD} 05:25, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Great Suburb Group Massacre 2010

All suburb wiki pages are undergoing a clean up to remove inactive groups from the group listing (see here: this suburb's groups). If you are a group currently listed in this suburb, you will be contacted on your group's talk page within the next few days and asked to reply, indicating that you are active in this suburb. Groups that fail to reply within two weeks of being contacted will automatically be removed from the suburbs where they are listed.

We're posting here in the hopes that more groups will be aware of the clean up and can respond appropriately, since our team does not have the time nor the manpower to seek out every group in-game or track down its group members elsewhere on the wiki.

Vinetown Group Massacre 2013

Does anyone in Vinetown still represent the following groups listed on the Vinetown Wiki Page?

Umbrella Corporation
The Dead 2.0
Cult of the Goddess
The Flat Earth Society

Anyone in favor of culling those four groups if we don't hear from any of them in the next 30 days?

Slow and Purposeful 14:11, 24 August 2013 (BST)

Easy there cowboy. We don't start the slaughter until October. Details are here, you are welcome to sign up and join us when we start.--RadicalWhig 09:54, 25 August 2013 (BST)

Ah, OK, I'll sign up. Since there was nothing listed here for 2012, I assumed the GSGM was defunct. --Slow and Purposeful 13:54, 25 August 2013 (BST)

Yep, we ended up skipping the 2012 edition as the suburb lists accumulate groups at a much slower rate than they used to. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 21:05, 27 August 2013 (BST)
