This is why we can’t have nice things. Most people have had a great time aside from a few bad apples. There are a few people who are specifically here to taunt, laugh, and generally are getting a rise from upsetting players chasing augmented meteors they spawned. They aren’t just chasing ones they see in the sky they sit on our platform watch for someone to spawn and use the portals to get the spawned ones. It is sad and this proves this absolutely would happen no matter what planet we spawned on (It is more lucrative to just go after the augment meteors we spawn than to naturally get your own). The occasional rando player smacking peoples meteors isn’t the problem at all. its people purposely trying to ruin our hunt for others. Hypocritically some of these people who have engaged in this trolling behavior are the same ones on the forums trashing our group claiming that they are being “harassed”.
IMO I don’t mind sharing, however just a thank you goes a long way. I took time to hunt gleambows for sacs and someone else who smacks my spawned gleambow is benefiting from my work. The least someone can do is say Thank you. That is all I ask. It’s not the randoms that don’t know what’s going on that is getting heat. It’s the ones that know what we are doing and are smacking them with no respect to the person who spawns them. All I want is a Thank you for my hard work and time to make the augments that someone else is benefiting from.
I inadvertently ran into one of the said groups. At some point someone tried digging the ground from under me after I saw a gleam meteor drop and mined some of it.
Warped out a bit after that and went to Boori. I tried Xa Frant this morning. Essentially empty and I got 5 black gleam.
This event can’t end soon enough, not helping on the game.
Did not take part for close to a week almost, work. And then come back to hunting comet trails and then get asked on Discord “why am I stealing”. My initial reply isn’t going to be diplomatic if that is the first message due to some sort of new EULA that goes for Circapous…
And the ones that says “oh it is just 1 region”… no… it is not… yeah centrally in 1 region, but visual for comet trails… I guess 15-20ish regions affected then? But the rest of us should stay away it seems, private area/planet. Always remember in which direction they are, so when you get around the planet again and not run into their meteor spot.
If Augments to be included in the future… make them so they are not useable on planets the event is going on.
That specifically is harassment and is against the rules, I’d report that if I were you.
Some people are so shady.
There is also 20 different planets beside gleambow ones where you can uae augments.
I mean heres my counter to your
“why you pick 1 out of 50 regions”
why dont you pick “1 out of 1000?”
Well the non gleambow qualified planets spawn reg meteors for one… two why cant others use the 199 other regions that the gleambow planets have to offer?
I can understand if the groups was taking over the entire planet but one of the 50 regions shouldn’t be an issue
If these guys are running into spawn limits it’s been affecting the entire planet. And pushing ‘natural’ hunters towards them as well.
Just to be clear I see people I have had both positive and negative interactions with on both sides of this one. I’m also pretty familiar with the need to defend oneself against a forum post that wasn’t directed at you, because you were doing the same thing or something similar.
Now that people who enjoy the drama are in the middle of it stirring the pot it’s all pretty funny.
Still a bad show of “the community” as a whole but what’re you gonna do ![]()
Gleambow, every time …
Not honestly sure if this is better than strictly players frustrated with the devs but it sure does confirm my thoughts about what’s going to happen with PVP implementations.
So you take that @Jaidic s " we were here first on my platforms " stand.
This is open event.
I cannot stop you being there .
You cannot stop me being there.
This whole thing is beyond stupid.
But are you there buugi? Because no one has actually seen you .
Im everywhere
Edit. Btw. Next time when you or whoever decide to discord pm someone about me at forums maybe do a little script for it. And use those little emojis too those are fun 
Who said I was stopping you from being there? lol
… all I was doing is countering your
“why you pick 1 out of 50 regions”
why dont you pick “1 out of 1000?”
Not here to cause drama just want to enjoy the game…
I have a new theory. Boundless could be a social experiment hosted by @james for his ph.d. thesis in psychology. Maybe he is studying social dynamics in online setting. Introducing x factors that throw the community in different directions and seeing how they react. Hmmm, quite an intriguing theory.
(just a fun joke james, no harm intended).

I suppose in a way it is an experiment of sorts to see if the community could handle summoned meteors.
Ye i just wanted to recap for you if you dunno what open event means.
You lost me with your edit I have no idea what you are talking about
I know right… you dont even have discord right
I would if I could isolate who exactly did it.
Despite that I think I’ll resort to farming gleambow sacs and meteors on Xa Frant. I had good time there being Spider-Man lol
To be clear tho: those few bad apples are on both sides!
Before anyone thinks only one group is meant here and feels offended!
And then complain in the forums about the community, I know them well! Sadly
That is crappy behaviour to knowingly do all this.
Shall we test the theory tho? Until you do it’s just a theory. Tho, admittedly I am sure once the people purposefully doing this know on which planet you are they will do the same indeed, but to use it as a justification for your planet choice doesn’t fly with me ![]()
Still, quite a few unknowing players in forum and in game chats seem to feel that it is the problem in the way they are spoken to.
Look, I get it, I assume it can be annoying af (even on a sac hunt and people smashing the gleambow up in mere seconds ticked me off, lol) but please control yourself, don’t react by using bad behaviour yourself.
I still do not understand why you have chosen to do this on Circ, it’s for one the busiest of the 4 planets, not even gleambow related, just due to TNT being there and many people using their hub, but it’s also one of the only 4 that has naturally spawning gleambows.
Yes, no normal ones. But what happens when you incidentally get a normal meteor near your summoned gleambow one? Well, you get killed and/or lose the gleambow one. How often would that happen you reckon?
Now how often have you summoned a gleambow on Circ and none spawned because the planet reached it’s limit?
Would you say the chances of both causing a loss of a good gleambow augment would be about the same? If not care to elaborate why you think one has a higher chance to happen?
As for only 1 in 50, well, like someone else already mentioned, the things can be seen in many neighbouring regions so it is to be expected that others will chase them. This won’t happen by accident on a non-gb planet (yes the trolls will still do, I give you that but that’s a separate issue I feel).
Then you get people on both sides that can get annoyed, words are being said which aren’t nice, people don’t feel happy as a result, etc.
Plus, let’s not forget, you are spawning so many of them that some seem to not work, which means you hit the limit, which also means you prevented quite a few natural gleambows to spawn…
So no matter what, my opinion is that it was a bad choice to do this on Circ, it would’ve prevented quite a few unhappy players. Wasting augments would still happen on either planet type, either thru the small chance of a normal meteor falling next to it and causing you to lose the gleambow or wasting one by being over the planet limit and thus also losing one (tho the latter might feel different, the end result is practically the same).
It’s only a few more days tho, so let’s not change it and try to be nice and considerate to everyone, this is for everyone who reads this, not about the topic starter or you Fante who I am replying to…
I will meet you guys on platform 8 in a bit tho! Is it handy BTW to bring my PC char which is then just idling there to get higher level meteors or are there plenty of people anyway and that is not needed?
Xa Frant is desolate. Its perfect.
