Thanks blue server for making a newbie want to stick around and realizing a few things about community. Sure, there are some bad apples but just coming to this server for the first time, I have been very impressed with the community here.

Its amazing once you start helping others, the "karma" that comes back to you.I seen a guy, an Iksar monk so desperate for cured silk which no one was making in field of bone. I happened to have a level 3 human monk that I worked on tailoring on so that I could make a set of cured silk for my brother.

It was a huge pain in the ass but I had the buyer to give me the silk and plat, then bought a port from a druid. He was drunk and dropped me off in the wrong druid ring so I had to ask his guild to send a replacement porter to get me to WC. I ran to EC tunnel and had to buy additional silk with some plat he gave me because I fail a lot as my skill is very low. I then took all my silk in a pack and dropped it to the ground in a remote area which I picked up with my tailor. An hour later I had a set of cured silk which I had to drop on the ground and transfer back to my iksar necro which could gate back to field of bone. Hell of a journey.

Upon presenting the cured silk set to him he thanks me and gave me with a nice neck upgrade. I went on my way and some guy offers to power level me. Turns out the guy which wanted the silk had a high level character. He knew what I did was a pain the arse and really appreciated it. He leveled me in the pit for 3 levels and let me keep the spider silk. I ended up making about 75pp in additional profit from the transaction as well.

A few other people gave me random pieces of equipment as well, which probably totals about 1000pp worth of gear, which I shared with my brother which is newer than me.

I post this as a reminder to myself and others to stay awesome, keep sharing, helping, even when its not easy, and making this a great community. Your rock p99 blue. I will do my best to pass along all the generosity that I was shown and appreciate greatly.
