I 100% ignore this kind of stuff in /ooc because it always looks very insincere to me, half the time its not a new player, and /ooc is just trash most of the time on the server. I've given away several suits of crusty/sentient armor and bags of other mid/low tier gear to new players in the past two weeks. I'm not sure where the prevailing idea on the forums that people will instantly drop whatever they're doing to help new players, when in reality its more like people on Red will go out of their way to help new players that are just playing the game, not sitting in a newbie zone asking for handouts(not saying this is you, but it happens, alot).

If you decide to give a try again shoot me a PM and I'll see what I have lying around.
