If you mean this: http://fodev.net/forum/index.php?topic=11392.0
That is indeed very similar but this post explains one of the mechanics this could involve. That was just saying "Ok lets talk about this broad subject."

Yes, sorry Michael, wasn't trying to disprove your topic, I've written this reply hours ago, forgetting to use the quote button. ;)

Do you really think that forcing everyone to waste their time creating over9000 water tents is what this game needs? I don't.
The change you are proposing here wouldn't add to realism (cf. my previous post), its sole purpose would be to annoy players with no water tents, and prevent new players from exploring remote areas (such as... any place other than the town next to which they originally spawned).
In other words, introducing it would add *nothing* but (different degrees of) annoyance to *all* players.
If the fact that water bags are of no use at the moment bothers you so much, why don't you propose that they be removed from the server... instead of coming up with ideas that would make the game basically unplayable for many?

WHY would you need an ALT for this??? Really. Tell me. You don't need to max level any skills, you don't need any skills AT ALL in fact. Making water bags requires no skill, filling water bags up FOR FREE requires no skill, carrying water bags only requires carryweight, Using water bags requires NO SKILL. You DO NOT need an alt for this.

Nice straw man arguments you've got there, but I'll play along.
Of course you don't need alts for crafting water bags, neither do you need them for filling those bags up with water. However, to craft a water bag, you need resources: one brahmin hide, and one bunch of fibers, which are not readily available in many locations.
That means you need a tent with water bags in it next to every possible respawn point, and also, preferably, every 2 squares of the world map, just in case.
This means that if you want to actually travel around the world map, and not just grid-camp gas station in New Reno 24/7, you'd need approximately 100 additional tents (or a car...) in order not to get constantly annoyed by the lack of water... if your idea got implemented, that is, which I hope is never going to happen.
