Poach boldly! If someone isn't willing to put an army on it then it isn't important to them. I tend NOT to kill poachers and I practice what I preach. If I leave it unprotected then I fully anticipate that someone else will come in and pick it up. How can it be theft if you won't hold claim to it? Possession matters. All that being said... communication is important and I wouldn't put an army on a square to harvest what I didn't kill. This includes the Underworld forces leaving remains of each other all over the place.

I kill poachers since it's the same thing as sending thieves. Recently I've had an issue with people sending harvesters from over 100 squares away. One sent from over 300 squares. One sent multiple times and then complained that I should just bump him. His argument was it's all fair game since at that distance there's no way to tell how the drop occurred.
So it's not fair game when a drop is close to you, but fair game when it's far away? And since you don't know whose drop it is then it's ok to farm it? People come up with some distorted logic. From my pov these are the very reasons why you should not travel long distances to farm a drop. Especially when you can wait a day and see if someone is harvesting there. If a drop is just sitting around with no one on it, then, yes, I agree that is fair game. But to arbitrarily just send out willy-nilly is asking for problems. And of course, for those that think anything laying around is fair game, remember that poachers are fair game, too. So if your harvesters end up dead, you have no cause for complaint. You just wasted the trip out, but were saved the trip back.

I have a guy who has slaughtered 100s of thousands of critters and never harvested any of them. In Iron most of us just send troops to kill stuff and whoever wants can harvest it if there is no army on the square. A team effort really, I know I do not have enough skinners for the 7 or so legions Ive killed this week, so one of my buddys will come take them :) If i see anyone other than Iron on my kill I slaughter them. I do believe in the 10 square rule for non alliance members, though I also believe in the right to break to the rule.

Hey All,
I've noticed a general trend that people are starting to view harvesting other people's kills as acceptable and that if you want to keep your kill, you should occupy it with an army. Why is this? Surely the fact that something's been killed means that someone probably wants to harvest said kill. I'd also like to know how you all deal with people who attempt to harvest your kills. Thanks -E

This is the thread that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend. Some person started it, not knowing what it was, and we'll continue posting on it forever just because...
