I brought a guy to the varrock bear cage after he ran back to the start of the sewers twice. Then I provided him with freshly cooked lobsters :) It was rather fun, but after, I needed to go back to chopping down yews for my green mask (which I just bought today :thumbsup: Prices look like they'll soar any day now 8-) )

 

 

 

Anyways, it's always nice to help out a newb in need. It's the proper way of playing rs :

most of the less experienced players that I give free stuff too, they keep asking for more. The ones I guide around are the ones who actually thank me.

I feel the same way, I would like to help the lower players, but, 90% of them are just too immature or just looking for handouts, so, I dont even bother.

My personal Logic on the matter is:

 

 

 

If someone is actually asking for help I will only offer words or guidance to them, not cave and inflame their begging.

 

 

 

If someone is quietly getting on with something and not asking for help, but seems like they could use it. I'll give em a little something.

 

 

 

EG I saw a guy mining iron outside legends, we said hi etc and he jsut got on with his mining. I checked him out on highscores and he was only a little way off being able to use a rune pick. Yet he was using a bronze one.

 

 

 

When I banked I got one of my spare rune picks out and gave it to him.

I tried to help some f2p players not too long ago, probably only a few weeks ago. I was blessing gravestones and repairing them left & right, sending private messages letting them know i blessed it what town its in I even asked where they were to see if i can give them directions but got no reply.

 

 

 

I tried to help 2 people on f2p with quests which both logged out on me so yeah in my opinion it's not worth it to help them out, at all. I'll never waste my time with them *EVER* again. When I can be doing more productive for myself like training a skill.

Great! You're pretty much like me. I have been playing RS for about 2 and a half year now and I'm just level 94. I don't grind all the time, I have fun too! And that's why we all is playing RS, isn't it?

 

But back on topic. This is a great thing that you have done, and I think that everyone should do something like this as often as they can.

Once in a while I used to get bored, and wander around randomly in f2p with cash and rune items to give away. The thing was, though, that if anyone begged, I automatically teled. I only gave out stuff to people who would have a good conversation but not beg.
