Sorry I looted your tent... I was desperate!

[Penny Sue 77]

I bounce between a private hive and the public one. Was playing on the public one last night. Fresh spawn and all I had managed to scavenge were a couple of canteens, one can of sardines, and some bandages. No map and I don't use online maps so I was just running ... and running.... and running... Eventually found a pond and refilled my canteens but now I was out of food and nothing to defend myself with. Out in the woods... no idea which way to go... so I just kept running into the woods.

Seemed like I had ran forever and wasn't getting anywhere fast. Eventually the woods gave way to open grassland. I spotted a large tower... some big hangars... fencing.... must be some airfield? I heard they were risky but I had nothing to loose so I headed to it. Then I saw someone's tent right out in the open!

Of course I ran to it and scoped out the area.... seems clear. There was a lot of stuff in there! I did not take it all... only what I needed...

Some silenced rifle and ammo

G17 pistol with no ammo

Food

Map

Pop

Painkillers

EPI pen

Ok I didn't NEED the EPI pen but I took it =) There was a lot of good stuff in there that I left.

Sorry but thanks for saving my life! =^.^= Might want to hide that tent better. I spotted it from hundreds of meters away with out even looking for it! It's really out there in the open.

Am I on the road to being a bandito?! O_o

if poorly concealed ... must be open to public ... If i find someones random tent, I'll stick some excess items in it ... no harm no foul ...

I don't feel guilty when looting someone's tent. If I found it, then they haven't done a good enough job hiding it.

I even giggle a little when I take something like an M4 and replace it with an empty Lee Enfield.

This.

I was cackling away to myself when we found a tent and took an M249, DMR and M4A3 CCO and left, in their stead, a double barrel shotgun, Winchester and AKM.

I never leave anything I can't afford to lose in a tent. I work on the assumption that it's not gonna be there when I get back. Invariably I am correct.

It sounds as if the tent had been set up to loot cycle.

When I was into tenting one of the goals was to have basic supplies so that another starving survivor in bad shape could eat, drink and get some ammo before they move on. Never left any weapons though, that can only end bad.
