Steams hottest game at the moment, Ark Survival Evolved. Currently, has no built-in way to prevent players from ruining everyone else’s fun. Which means other players must get creative in ways to stopping these trolls and jerks. These players imprison a troll to show him how it feels to get his day ruined.

Ark: Survival Evolved is a sandbox dinosaur hunting game where players must strive to survive. The environment can be used in many ways to survive the savage lands such as foraging, crafting, building and so on. Unfortunately in the wild, its survival of the fittest. You’re pitted against the savage wild as well as other players hungry to be at the top of the food chain.

What makes it worse is it seems every other player out there is after you. Ark survival evolved is overwhelmed with players that love nothing more than to destroy your little outpost and loot everything you have. Your character is always online in the world. So you could be sleeping peacefully in bed while you’re offline, come back to see yourself in a ditch with your entire possessions stolen.

Just last week, a Ark player named Barbaric Seagull posted on the steam forums about himself and players getting justice against an infamous troll by the name of Ricky within the game.

“We have an infamous scoundrel and rapscallion locked in a cage, whenever he gets low health from punching the wall I tranquilize him and feed him blood until he’s full HP. We’ve had him in there for quite some time.

“This is what happens when you’re a jerk, justice is served.”

Barbaric Seagull continues and says that the player was imprisoned for over ten hours in the virtual prison he created. Taking roughly thirty minutes, Seagull and his friends trapped him and forced him to craft care packages for new players as community service.









Ark: Survival Evolved developers commented stating that they totally intended for stuff like this to happen. this is Arks FAQ regarding the unconsciousness feature in the game. When you log off your character, or if you suffer serious trauma, or eat the wrong thing, your body becomes unconscious. This will allow other Survivors to interact with you. They can steal your items, kill you, and even feed you! But there’s something else you can do in ARK. you can drag their ragdoll sleeping body around, move it to wherever you want. Even move it into a prison cell and enslave it (or just put it in a very dangerous position for when it awakes). You can force-feed an unconscious person food & water to keep them alive. You can physically confine them and keep them alive indefinitely if you maintain their health. You can then do such useful things as extracting blood from them to create transfusion items, or using their poop as fertilizer, etc.

But to top off this awesome justice. Seagull has befriended this troll, stating that after the situation they got to chatting on TS and had a great time together. Heres what he said.

“I just wanted to update this to provide some posterity to the situation and everyone commenting. We did imprison Ricky, for raiding and such, it was fun and we invited him to our TS and we all had a great time.”

“After getting to know him more, and finding out how absolutely insane (total headcases) some of the tribe leaders are on our server, we now play with him as a member of our tribe. Right now we have become friends and are having fun together and he is not destroying anybody’s stuff.”

Ark: Survival Evolved has proven to be a masterpiece in itself and we hope that plenty more exciting stories like this arise! Comment below what you thought of this self-player justice!
