"As for Mr.ManCub, would it be as easy as just leaving your bol, even if you have a second location? What if you fortified your location so well, that the raiders are blocking all the ways out? "

"Good post. But I still think that beingg in one spot is the way to survive. Of course not if its swarmed with z's. I dont think that z's got functioning brain and memory so if you stay out of sight long enough, they will eventually leave"

"Any good spot should include cleared fields of fire. Areas cleared of cover and offering clear shots of any hostiles or zombies. One person with a pair of binos can cover the entire area and give warning if a zombie stumbles or even crawls into your area. It would be up to you then whether to simply let it pass by and keep an eye on it, wander out with a few baseball bats for a little fun or whatever.

"I'm tired of hearing 'raiders are a bigger threat'. (Not that you're saying that, Ulysees, I'm just posting my thougts on raiders.) You see, the idea of a "zombie" apocalypse is that an overwhelming majority of people will be dead or no longer human.

You see, the odds that there are people left in your area (depending on where you are) are pretty slim, and even then, they might just as soon join you as steal from you.

The problem with raiding is simple: most of humanity is gone. If your goal is only your survival and to hell with it all afterwards, it's fine, but if you want to do some good for the world, you need to try to preserve any kind of life you can. Hunt when you need food; kill a person if that person needs to be killed, but for God's sake, try not to do more than you must. You need everyone you can get. In order to survive, they must either be smart or skilled, or just really lucky, and you will need them with you. "
