True, true, but we don't always have wives to steal so we deal with the people we have.

Friend, there is always wives to steal. You just need to know where to look.

Man. The morally loose women must be worshiped in your society.

Within the marriage! Besides, Catholics I hear say having Kids is a good thing, so I can't imagine it's hard. Besides, in these kinds of society's, kids are considered ways to achieve more wealth due to having more people to work. Besides, it mostly worked in Mideval Europe.

Edit: Wife stealing? That's how we deal with Feral tribes, or bandit clans.

It worked in Medieval times, because only 1 out of 8 kids survived the smallpox/cholera/disease.
You can only have a kid once every nine months, barring premature (and often deadly) births, and twins.
Having more kids to gain more wealth worked in the industrial revolution... in which kids were regularly killed or crippled from the machines they worked on.

Yes, because you will get a brutal, savage, and feral cavewoman to be willing to marry someone. Same for bandits.

Like I said, rape is rather taboo, and against site rules.

The line you're walking is very fucking thin. And you are no longer on any moral high ground.

Well, I'm sure that's true. And either way, that's the way we do things. I also guess my people are immune to some diseases, but not all. There's always that risk I suppose.

You can't outright describe it but it can be implied (or explicitly stated).

The OP actually talks about it with the ferals; that said, there's really no reason to get into it unless you are a little twisted.

Yeah, well, I'm taking the suggestions from my other friends here. And I'm not saying rape. You know what? Screw that policy. We're going back to just taking the kids.

Sexual intercourse at gunpoint is very much rape. The fact you say it isn't is rather worrying.

I meant for all people. It means not to try any funny business. God! I really need to word my statements better! I was not talking about rape. And at this point, I didn't already like the idea of Wife stealing. Back to old policies!

That's not what I meant, but I suppose that's what it sounded like. I meant no one is going to do crazy ass shit regardless of who they are, or for different purposes. I'm sorry that's how I came across. In my opinion, the wife stealing policy is way to.....uncomfortable for me to be honest.

Would we be able to use old wreckage as landmarks and such?

For example, if Astoria had a drydock before the Collapse, could I use a ruined warship at the drydock as a central market? Or would everything have to be post-Collapse buildings?

Anowa can you link me to the rules where it says this. The Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy don't mention anything about it and i'm wondering if i'm just overlooking something obvious.

The site is PG-13.

You mind telling me when rape became PG-13?

Buildings are whatnot are still standing of course, the only issues are the lack of maintenance really.

Keep in mind they are 100 year old structures, likely to have rusted to hell and back. If you portray 100 years of rust accurately, then I'd say yes. Also, keep in mind that the Northwest is a very wet region which would accelerate any rusting process. It's likely such a vessel's metal would be fucked.

I''m wondering if it might be better for me to move my bandits to South Dakota instead? Might be more survivable (though less interesting).

A carved out base in Mt. Rushmore would be pretty slick.

I'm not arguing with you, rape shouldn't be written about in detail (though alluding to it having happened should be alright, considering this is a Post-Apocalypse roleplay). I would like to see evidence however, for my own knowledge.
