beware, the worst creature imaginable lives in that there forest. turn your back and let your guard down for a second and the next thing you hear is your character's girly scream as she dies. don't let it get you. get the forget out of there if you value the tiny amount of money you're carrying.
And its also very good for hiding from cops.
Because opening the player list, seeing Distant Forest, then riding all the way out there to get you is so hard. Even leaving there while they're in Wilderness, it just gives you the general area to sear. It's actually worse.I remember whenever I'd go there, I'd find horses. Led me to believe ownerless horses spawned there, but I later found out that it was just people going all the way there then dying and never coming back for their horses. They'd become ownerless, and we'd find them.
