IMHO the wipe is good as it is, it gives people time to get in, get going and have a good base, I think if we wiped twice a month we would lose more players than we already do. I agree with the clan ganging up part, personally everyone should be out in the wilds on their own, many other servers I've played on only allow single or duo play and as for the "Don't raid me, I got a rustic sign on my base" please don't get me started... That is not what RUST is about, it's about surviving so sorry... Everyone should be able to raid everyone else... Yes be open to helping other players but also open to raiding their base once you've built it up!!
@Bogleg - You need to get in the server when it's quiet, maybe just 1 or 2 others and ask for help!! It can be very frustrating having to start over but if only you asked there are plenty of us to help you get started, build a small 2 x 2 base to begin with, gather hemp, build a sleeping bag to spawn into, make a TC and ensure you have enough stock in it to stop your base decaying... We have 3 channels in TS now so come in and one of us will take you into an empty room and talk you through how to get stuff etc, maybe even give you stuff to help you along...
