Subject: Re: Twinking Causes a Crisis of Faith


Overall the general population of twinkers could care less I am sure.
Hoever, I will never block a needy person (i.e., a druid needing a foreman
tunic) from the camp. Everything I have on my druid was not intentionally
camped by my high level for the purpose of twinking. It's all stuff I had
sitting in the bank, and hand me downs (like the Falchion). I am getting the
itch to camp for a mammoth cloak lately tho. =) Oh what a joy that will be..
