I'm on the 'Blue' server and have experienced the same thing. Was running around with my low level Halfling cleric and someone gave me a bunch of sewing kits to use as containers, and one of them was filled with leather armor!
Later I was on my lvl 4 human pally in Freeport and I was asking someone for advice on what price I might sell some stacks of bone chips for. The person asked me what kind of armor I had on, ran to the bank and brought back some armor and weapons they didn't need. Later on I was at the bank in N. Freeport. Someone came in, looked at my gear and handed me a very nice BP, a nice two-handed axe and 100p! Naturally I thanked both people profusely, saying that someday I hoped to be able to repay their kindness. They just told me to pay it forward, which I intended to do.
Since then, I have been able to help out some new players. I've given people that cloth armor that drops from skellies and orc pawns in the newb area. It's not much, but when all you have is the starting cloth tunic and weapon, it helps. I had bought some banded gloves and a neck piece which I gave away instead of selling. Also gave one player a packpack and a stack of water and rations in addition to a bunch of cloth armor I was wearing (which didn't take me long to replace), and about 10p. As I level up and become more 'wealthy' I hope to be able to do more.
It's not much, but at level 1 or 2, every little bit helps. All these RAoK do go a long way in making what can be a difficult time a lot easier, and I believe it does a great deal to enhance people's playing experience and perception of the game.
