I know how to identify and avoid. Here I'll tell you worried Wi-Fyers.

1. If you see anyone "thinking" (viewing their menu) try to verify if they are writing or not.

2. If a random person says they want to buy sunglasses, do not allow them to enter or if they have kick em out. I ve seen tactics that seeders do and that is one of them.

3. If a person asks to save reject their proposition unless it's somebody that you trust. any other person you just kick out.

4. An infamous Seeder "group" is called the Anarchists. They usually together since they have power in numbers. If any one group of people that you don't know/trust decide to come all at once, don't let em. They may be a seeder group striking at once.

5. Should you get seeded you should seek outside assistan[/size]ce at once. Some good Samaritans[size=xx-small] usually group together to form seeder assistance groups. They'll help if you get a hold of them.

There are many ways to locate and identify seeders. If know of any other way on how to ID them, please do so by posting on this thread.

This thread was recommended to me by Kitsch.

That's actually quite helpful. Thanks, Pumakid! (Sounds like a superhero name btw, lol) You sound like a veteran of this forum rather than a newbie.

Thanks for the info :)

those are only SOME of the thing seeders will do to try to get in your town
some people can hack your town as soon as they leave your gates

and

Anarchists?
are they a for-real group?

error--

Yes; on youtube there is a video where they seed someone and then call themselves the Anarchists.

Marzipan--

Now that you mention it it does sound like a superhero name. XD Also, the only reason I sound like a veteran is because Madlena helped me fit in.

a clan that hacks towns?

Yes, a clan that can hack town and brick your game if they want. Or just close the gate for good. Which ever they choose.

I also hear The Crooks (But in 1337 speak) are back.

Also, anyone who knows any other names of seeder clans can post the clan names here for future reference, as well as their friend codes IF you know them.

I can't understand why people would spend their time destroying other people's towns. Silly fools.
@ Pumakid: That's nice. It is easy to immediately feel at home here. I've joined other forums before and it's taken months and months to start to fit in, and I hated it. But it's not like that on here - it's got a much friendlier atmosphere.

i use to be one of those silly fools...

Additional Info--

If you think that seeds that put buildings in your towns are bad, listen to this:
They aren't the worst. The worst are seeds that "brick"* your game. these are irreversible.

*=Brick: aterm used to define the breaking of a program, mostly used in computing to describe a program that "as useful, and entertaining, as a brick". Also a synonym for "crash".

Also, if your town gate becomes inaccessible because of a seed, third-party assistance is no longer possible. But is you have Animap (program of Action Replay) you can delete the seed by placing a building over it.

from what i have heard these Anarchists people dont know how to brick towns yet
they only know how to seed the gates and such
they have a little over 65 members
but this is only what i have heard.

i Can "brick" and i have only done it once.

REALLY IMPORTANT DATA!!!--

Seeders can hack your game without having them on your friend list. In other words--

They will enter your game whether you have their friendcode or not!!! This makes it very dangerous using the wi-fi service.

indeed they can
that may be how megamushroom07 make it into other towns
