Nerf Brahmin shoveling, Really?!!?
falloutdude:
if this new shit shoveling was supposed to be for noobs at lvl 1-2 then why would you make cows attack them? wtf were you thinking? real noobs will end up just dieing from this. so now they have to worry about pks,theifs, and cows killing them in a guarded town. good job making a noobs life harder.

Only if they are morons and keep shoveling until they are dead.
If they are morons, it's OK if they die.
Also it's not that hard to avoid brahmin. You just have to try do it to realize that.
And not clean poop that is very close to them.
I will be changing it to make it less pure mouse agility dependent (but not easier).
I have yet to see a dead newbie though.
I only see whining long time players who would like to farm caps effortlessly in safe locations.

ok i want you to think about this, a noob gets attacked by a cow, noob thinks cow is a hostile creature and can kill it for exp and such. attacks cow and gets murdered by guards. this will become a common mistake by noobs.

Brahmin knocks you once and goes back and you are warned by pen owner that they can be nervous.
You don't have to be a genius to grasp how it works.
In the worst case you will learn how it works after the first mistake. You make it once and won't make
it anymore. I haven't seen any newbie complaining though, only long time players who would like to
farm caps effortlessly.

This is quite right, imo. The fact that brahmins attack shovellers forces these to leave the tent after a while, which avoids "one bloosewt gets all" situation, not entirely of course, but still works that way. Of course, players can team up and FA each other or something, but players who already have the correct mix of team mentality and metagaming are ready to do something harder and more profitable than shovelling shit.
Shovelling shit is an useless feature for non-noobs, that is why there is so much whining against this, imho.
