Recently I joined a friends server. I helped them slay Moder and now I'm just starting to build a place for myself in their server. This has been a real pain as I have fought 3 raids in the last 3 hours. I fought 2 fuling hordes and 1 giant raid.

A new Fuling horde just started to attack. I am beyond annoyed. I signed off immediately because I wasn't in the mood to fight them. Since there are other people in the server, will the raid go away on its own as other people play in the server? is there a way i can get rid of this horde without loosing my building progress again?

1: "Will the raid go away?"
No. Someone has to be physically present within the raid radius for the duration of the raid.
2: "Can I get rid of it?"
Not unless you fight them off or have your server buddies come in and help you take them on.

Advice: Dig trenches with your Pickaxe. If you have the Stone for it, build earthen walls either in conjunction with or in place of the trenches. Make sure that every spot inside your fortifications (i.e. trenches or earthwalls) is covered by a crafting bench radius (this will prevent spawns inside said radius).

If it ends up that you need a larger space, you can always flatten the walls or fill in the trenches, or just make them part of the aesthetic.
