I would just like to first say that I have noticed a significant drop in the "clique" count on the shard as of late, and I am very happy about this. I would also like to say to ANYONE, ANYWHERE, at ANY time I am online- please do NOT hesitate to drop me a pm, run up to me screaming bloody murder, or just walk by and give me a *poke*- I'll be glad to help anyone out, at any time with hunting, items, whatever...
Especially if you see me at the bank- these are the times when *I* am usually looking for something to do! hehe If you want to run down to a dungeon for a quick hunt- let's go! If you want to do a couple t-maps you've been collecting- let's go! If you want to see if you can get your hands on some decent armor or weapons- I might very well have something in my bank box to help you out, and if not... LET'S GO! My point is this: I have received a LOT of pm's over the past several days which stated initially "I don't wanna bother you, but..." - PLEASE don't feel like you're bothering. If I didn't want people pm'ing me with questions, I wouldn't be on the volunteer help list. Ask away! I'll probably know whatever info you're looking for, and if not, I can sure help you find it.

Maybe that is because they don't exist.

Wait...so you're saying that "Cool oldbie group" with me, you, Atei, and Lagger doesn't exist!? *sniffles*

There is a feature in game called "Online Volunteers." Basically, you log yourself in as someone who is ready, willing and able to provide in-game assistance. Perhaps you should check that out, Celeste.

As to the "cliques" comment, I offer this point of view: I like hunting with people I know because I know they have my back, and they know I have theirs. This can be anything as simple as "buddy-bandaging," to taunting, to just jumping in to help and not running ahead (which abandons your hunting partners).

I have little tolerance for people who do this last one, especially. I am willing to hunt with anyone, anywhere, anytime. But if you run off and leave me to fend for myself, I will be very reluctant to hunt with you again. That's my opinion, for whatever it's worth.

I don't hunt, I die.

Whoa! guys... please, please, please don't take my post as being ANY kind of negative thing in ANY way, shape or form. It's actually ALL positive. All I was saying is that I'm available to ANYONE for just about ANYTHING they need help with... I wanted to point out that I got a LOT of pm's, especially from newer or [young] players, that started with "I hate to bug you, but..." or "I don't mean to bother you, but..." What I was saying to them is to please not feel like they're bugging or bothering by asking questions. That's the only way you learn how things work! And I'm ON the Volunteer Help List, with ALL my characters- that's why I said

If I didn't want people pm'ing me with questions, I wouldn't be on the volunteer help list.

This also goes for ANY player- not just the new guys. Dalia's ressing service is usually a quick responder...
