OH MY GOD!!! that would be so great. Let me tell you all why....

I HATE GNOMES!!!

My druid hunts the guards...only gnome guards because I hate gnomes so
much. I took my bard to steamfront one day there to hunt by herself.
Well she never been there before. I asked out to teh zone what a lvl 7
could hunt. They all told me to hunt rats....rats??? I conned and
they were all green. I asked um...but they are green? And they all
answered me "oh and you want experience too?" then they brought on
some other rude comments to me and to various others in the zone. I
even watched one try to con some guy out of 25p to do the observer
quest for him. (like i would hand over the lens to a stranger and let
them do the quest for me!!). Anyway I soon after left. Now I go back
there with my druid and kill the guards. I get there and I will be
medding in between killing the miserable little runts and the gnomes
will run up to me in hordes begging for SOW or other buffs. Then they
beg me to let them loot the guards I have just killed. When I refused
(have to finance my own char too and at anywhere from 2 to around 8
plat per gnome...I make money quite well and still never have enough
for what I need). Well I actually had one rude little bugger argue
with me saying that they needed money worse than I did. Why does it
always seem that gnomes have a bad attitude!

Nothing would make me happier than to watch waves of gnomes jump into
pools of lava! actually truth be known...my druid would be happy to
give ports to anyone who wants to do this since she resides on E'ci to
begin with. So binds and ports would be provided by me and any other
druids i can find (i have a few in my guild who might help).
