1. Is there any way to reverse the random resources collection?
This change was made to deter monopolization of high-end resource nodes within the world. While we are open to reverting random resource collection this change requires additional consideration and discussion of all the impacts. We look forward to continued discussion within the community.
There was no monopolization of resources nodes prior to them being changed to random. We the community had very effective means of dealing with the bots back then from camping them and killing them fel side, to blocking their recall spots tram side. Prior to this change I was a resource gatherer more than anything else, as were many other fine upstanding miners and lumberjacks. Now the only time I mine is for salt peter and just get my wood from the tree stump vet rewards I have claimed since that time. The decision back then to implement this random resources was a horrible one and was widely opposed then and is still very unpopular today with the vast majority of us that would rather be mining and lumberjacking than anything else.
As it is the only ones that benefit from the way things are now are the very ones this was put in place to deter. I really fail to see the need for any discussion. Just change it back to the way it was and let us deal with the resource scripters the way we always did. The only discussion I can see that would be needed is if it will upset the people running the recall miner and LJ scripts. But they have had free run now for years to stockpile billions of every ore and wood type unmolested.
