I would point out after reading more posts alot of people are experienced in how rust works. The two main reasons i do not like base decay is because new players to the game have somewhere to learn and if they have fun with the game they might bring and make more friends in turn that support community growth. Understanding this game is very complex to new people i myself have played 3 wipes and still have not survived cargo or been able to solo brad.
This is a relaxing place for build testing ideas for even experienced pvp players, New players and people who want a place away from craziness of normal rust.
I would say if you want a alternative to decay why not increase max non log time on to 5 day instead of 7, why not make buildings require double the resources to build?
Thankyou for your time.
