When dealing with annoying neighbors, expressing your frustrations can be challenging. Most choose to remain silent and simmer with frustration. However, for one Rust player, the end of a server wipe provided the perfect opportunity to voice their feelings loud and clear.

User UniverseBear demonstrated their feelings by erecting a towering illuminated middle finger, declaring their departure from their server in a spectacular fashion. This giant gesture, made from industrial lights, is intricately designed to animate, smoothly raising from a clenched fist.

As UniverseBear aptly stated, “Making one of these is often how I like to end a successful wipe.”

The construction of such a statement piece isn’t just for show; it’s a tradition for the player to commemorate server wipes. UniverseBear shared how they achieved this feat using a series of timers and blocks synced to work in harmony, ensuring that the impressive display functions flawlessly.

While UniverseBear noted there are likely more efficient methods to create the display, their ingenuity has not gone unnoticed. fellow players and fans of Rust have expressed admiration for the unique expression of creativity.

2026 promises to be a significant year for Rust, with the highly anticipated naval update expected to introduce boat building, naval combat, and piracy.

It seems that in Rust, where neighborly relations can often be hostile, such a bold and striking farewell is not only a poetic expression but potentially a necessary one.
