And that's why instead of getting beaten and shot by 40 cops simultaneously, you get a blackmark.

Dude, you guys are just jealous. I have a girlfriend and we love eachother very much.

NAD IS IN 1 HOUR!!! Woooo!

In 23 Hours and 30 Minutes, NAD WILL BEGIN! :D

Hey everyone! I would like to alert you all about the date change, it is now June 23+24 most likely, at 5pm GMT. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get your donations in by June 16, so that the OoC can do some serious planning and searching. Remember to check the original post for who to donate to, and what we would like you to donate!

There is no need to put down this group. They deserve to pick their cabbage just as much as we do. There is no reason to point things out more than three times. This could easily have nothing to do with the OoC. It could easily be just a person who thought it would be cool to have a large collection of a considerably useless item, and he simply is asking for help. I'd probably help, were it not for the position I am already in.

So you are saying that because you did not receive free items when you began Runescape, no one else should be able to have that opportunity? Being independent is good, but that doesn't mean help is bad. If you had to cut down a big tree all by yourself, does that mean that someone else who wishes to do the same task does not deserve to have someone help them?

I was in the third stage when I was about... 6 years old playing Starcraft, and then progressed into the fourth within a few years.

What they said. :D Lets say you somehow get 500 people to start picking cabbage for you, with complete loyalty. They would each have to pick about 20000 cabbages in order for you to get 10 million cabbages. In the time it takes to do that, many people could earn several mil. Funny, cute, but not that realistic. Consider the OoC though.

Alot of people seem to say that giving newbies items will only make them noobs, or that it is better if we hire them to do some manual labor and then teach them some stuff. I would first like to say this: We do not simply trade a bunch of level 3s and then give them free stuff. This may have occured in past NADs, but this year I am hoping that we will be able to spend more time with individual newbies, and observe them for a minute before giving them any free items. Knowledge is great in the beginning, but it doesn't mean that items are useless. Do you think that newbs would not become noobs if they received nothing? Not all beggars get what they ask for, but that does not mean they stop begging. People who become beggars and sponges do so because their already set personality and mindset is that way.

I agree with most of this. When I was a newb, I never begged or received free stuff. I think you should get them to help you with something, like air running or law running, where you can give them the profits of what they make instead of just giving them free stuff, otherwise they'll just change from being newbs to being noobs. Which do you want more? Please keep all discussion in this topic: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=646962&start=0 This topic is simply to discuss the event itself, not its effectiveness or pros and cons or anything silly like that. Thank you to all who say they are donating. The OoC greatly appreciates your help, and hopes you can be at NAD to.

Although this is a good point, do you think that if we did not host a NAD those newbs would not become beggars and noobs? People who become beggars will most likely have become beggars anyway, it is in their character and personality. What NAD does is try to reach out to everyone, and hope that those who have a different mindset than the beggars can learn and be able to enjoy the game fully.

http://z4.invisionfree.com/The_Order_of ... owforum=55 Read and learn. Just a note, the names I have listed for people to donate to, those are only the accounts they will usually be contacted on, the actual donations will be taken on alternate accounts, and passed on to mine and Moron's alternate accounts for the event. For the names of said accounts just ask the people on the list.

I guess I know how you feel. It too me like an hour to do the cook's assistant quest when I first started. Kind of embarassing, but it's also true. But now that they have guides all over the place it seems a little... less satisfying when you do things.

Only the good newbs. I don't want any noobs getting mixed in there... It seems that a few people find this event damaging to the community, although it does not really affect anyone. If people are going to become beggars, they will become beggars whether we give them stuff or not.
