I don't have the rest of the messages for this thread, but if you are
referring to asking people for items, cash, etc.... Rule number one is don't
do it. I never ever respond to someone who asks me for things, I dislike
beggars. I will gladly help another who merely just chats with me, if I get
to talking with someone. I will offer all kinds of information and advise,
as well as giving items and cash. But never never if they ask for it.
let me give an example.....I was on another server with a lvl 5 cleric I
made, she was still roaming around west freeport and she saw a dwarf enter
where she was resting. She merely said "Greetings", asked how he was,
talked with him for a bit, I never once asked for a thing. He was a level
47 cleric. He buffed me very well, and asked if I would like a weapon. I
thanked him over and over, because its people like that who make the game
worth playing. He was a generous man. I was happy to chat with him and
that he would sit and chat with me. He ended up giving me a Combine Morning
Star, Black Iron medallion and 200 plat, I was shocked to say the least. I
will never forget his generousity and hope I can repay him sometime. My
level 50 cleric has done this very same thing for lower level characters,
just because they sat and chatted, and Didn't beg.
If I am completely off what the topic of this thread is I apologize, just
responding to what I saw in this last posting.
