Sumpta Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I'm usually nice to newbies, give them stuff or show them things. Alas, some of them just keep expecting more, such as guiding them through quests... I offer to tell them what to do through PM, but they insist I go along, as if I have nothing better to do than standing around waiting or trotting through the whole of RS 'cos they can't tele. Ooh, lemme share this story... Yesterday, I was training my (pathetic) ranging with moss giants. This lvl 55 keeps taking my arrows, so I start screaming "you thief! guards!" and he goes like "hey, I'm a noob, whaddaya expect". So to make a point, I fletched 300 free steel arrows for a nice dude, who was there too and who was giving me back my arrows, and proclaimed "be kind, and thou shalt receive kindness". The lvl 55 gave back the arrows and some seeds on top to make up. Mwahaha! I'm gonna reform 'em all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I REALLY HATE THAT!, they know what they are doing is pathetic, and they use being a 'noob' as an excuse i wish you could tele other without their permission :twisted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voncritic Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Ooh, lemme share this story... Yesterday, I was training my (pathetic) ranging with moss giants. This lvl 55 keeps taking my arrows, so I start screaming "you thief! guards!" and he goes like "hey, I'm a noob, whaddaya expect". Just a little bit off-topic, as JAGEX's interpretation of "Item Scamming", there is nothing you can do about this "Arrow Thief". To avoid confrontation, I normally do not train on strong targets that will take too long to kill and let others see my arrows on the floor. Fortunately, my Range is high enough that I could kill Moss Giants with steel arrows in pretty short time. There was a time when I started my Range at a low level, and I was dumping about 4K of Bronze Arrow at Hobgoblins, accross from the Cow Farm. I was not planning to retrieve my arrows anyway. Now, this pathetic noob (Level 7 maybe?) came up to me and beg for arrows (-_-) again and again. I said no, he ran accross the river and start "stealing" my arrows while dodging those hobgoblins - I couldn't care less. And then, he ran back to me and was like "Yay! I steal your arrows, lalala". I mean, WTF, I wish Hobgoblins are having AI like red spiders and speed like ice warriors, and wish him a good death amongst those Hobgoblins. I am back.

ogloc219 Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I'm nice and help noobs out until they add me to their friends list and ask me questions every five seconds to where I can't even play the game. I mostly stay away from noobs now because of that reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothic_Hell Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I dont understand why you help, but when i was little level I didnt have any help AT ALL, I exlored and got killed but thats the most interresting part of the game - exploing and finding out whats out there! I dont liek things being put on the plate and i dont act as a slave to people. I have helped a lot of people, when i got over lvl 100 i made a lot of armour and weapons and went to a free world and gave them all alway... and from about 50 people i had only 2 "Thank you" `s. And that rudeness didnt stop there! After a few days, i log on and some peosron asks "I want more free stuff" ... no "please" or anything! A few days later i`ve regreted that i`ve made that move, because to the present day i have those people asking me for free stuff. So NO, experience tawt me never to help anyone, unless they desparately needed it. Also i dont like using the word " noob" we were all noobs and to some extent we will always be noobs. Anothe rhting that makes me laugh, it lvl 40`s call lvl 120`s noobs...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peche Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Some like to help newbs, others like to scam newbs. I prefer to help always like friends. And noobs i don't care if they die or something they are just losers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfboy Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I help sometimes. I help them once, then their reaction determines my next step. If they're grateful (some actually are, believe me) then I'm willing to help them again. If they start demanding more stuff, they get a free trip to my ignore list. When I was new, people helped me out. I remember the first time I died. (A cow killed me :oops: ) I lost my axe and tinder. I asked around where I could buy new ones, and someone took me to the chicken farm and showed me the axe respawn place. Then they took me to the general store and bought me a tinder. I don't know who it was, and I haven't seen them since, but I'll always be grateful to them. Because of that, I try to help when I can.
