People have grown much more greedy and less charitable which was likely caused by today's MMO's like WoW. Everyone has lost patience becuase they are not use to needing it anymore and it always frustrates others who are patient which in return makes those people inpatient as well. Bottom line is, this server is cut throat so you better have a hidden dagger ready to stab someone else in the back like everyone else :p.

When I was a lowbie people did exactly the same thing for me and ya know what it did? It made me appreciate them, and remember them when some jackhole screwed me over. And it caused me to commit acts of kindness to others. This is what needs to be promoted on this server.

It's not that people have lost patience or grown more greedy across the boards. It's more that you've become more suspicious and cynical because of the few who are and always have been.

Personally, I commend the charitable deed and the OP giving praise for such. And will give free ports to Gramaton to show my appreciation.

I love it when people take their own misguided frustration and cynicism and try to taint everything and prevent anyone else from having any fun because they're doing something voluntarily that they apparently hate.
