Same here. I go bandit in Lingor, and 20 minutes later, it is gone.

yes

put them in a tent and leave them... they will get taken

I am on around day 30 now...

I place barbed wire in bushes through high traffic areas... just for the hell of it.

Not sure if there is a server problem or if the admins are kicking everyone who joins, but 4 of us joined and each got kicked after about 90 seconds.

Our group plays as female so that we can tell each other apart from the other players.

I get so paranoid about not having a compass, that I went to the store and bought a new one in real life the other day. Aside from that, an Alice Pack, hunting knife, matches, and ranged weapon.

Nothing?

Yes

I am not saying that this applies to the OP, but anyone who arbitrarily kills other players and then claims the moral high ground with respect to server hopping is very delusional.

Loot hopping isn't and exploit. It is a 'feature'. :)

I would wager that the largest number of deaths are self-induced. After dying, spawn, kill self, respawn, kill self, respawn... until you get the location you want. :) Hell, sometimes I have to do it 7 or 8 times before I get the town I want.
