My community can see that I am spending a considerably long time no-lifing this, and I wish to hide the fact.

Also, my fellow Vikings seem to feel free to help themselves to all my cooked food without giving me materials back, so I created a Ward at my house. Is there a good way to role-play barter using in-game items? I wanted to use the coins, but they say it's worthless, so I demand iron in return for food. Is that fair?

Thanks for the help.
