Since discovering this game I have to admit that I am addicted to it. I try to help people when I can and because I am a cleric I will randomly buff people as I am running to my next quest location.

If I end up in a lower level area like Sand Hill or something and someone asks me to help with Marlone or such I will without question. Often times if I am in an area I will ask if anyone needs Mara, Malone, Robo etc.

The great thing is, is that I get to meet a lot of interesting people in this game. The bad thing is if someone asks me for help and I am already in a party or busy on my own quest they get angry that I won't stop what I am doing to help them.

Not more than 10 minutes ago I was in Collapsed Prison working on the 100 vampire bats quests when someone on my friends list asked me to help with Piggy bats. I said that I would but it would take me a few minutes to kill the mob I was working on and to head back.

He pitched an absolute fit! Acting like a whiny little child he was like "forget it, nevermind, I don't want your help etc."

Needless to say I was just a wee bit aggravated and logged out. Why do people get so frustrating when you can't help them the very second they ask? If it continues I will start kicking people off my friends list.

Sorry I needed to vent.....

i hear u i was like u i always used to help random ppl but found i was gettin more and more stressed tryin to help others gettin constant whispers for help and not lvling much myself, felt like everyones slave, maybe im a bit to mean now but i very rarely help random ppl anymore or accept random friend requests because i know from past experience they will be in my whisper 5 mins later wanting "help" with something im here to have fun, to play the game, i now use the block function alot and have learnt to either ignore or just say no to requests sure i get ppl then whisper again calling me arrogant or whispering abuse ^^ i just laugh back i no longer care what random ppl think im here for me and my closest friends not every tom ,**** and harry who thinks i have nothing better to do with my time than help them

That's just the beginning...

after you be nice to them one time, they start bugging you for every single quest they have ._." >.>;

i really don't have the nerves to say no, so i drop what i'm doing and go help them o.e

but sometimes D:< I can say no XD

I know what you guys mean. I used to help alot of people but they kept asking for help on ever quest. then get mad for not helping them and when you do help they complain that you never help. Like really, how do they think you get to 8x. You can't get plvl'ed there,can you? So, now i don't put no one in my friends list. And i go to areas and just drop items to help and when i'm bored i go and help random people.

I never got plvl'ed and i don't see the fun in it. and thats all people want to ask for anymore. really, why play if all you want to do is have someone else do all the killing for you? In some cases i understand, like when you and your friend where playing and your internet got canned for a couple weeks. then a little plvl to help them get back together to make it more fun for them, ok I'll help.
