Author | ransom requests in assist |
And while i wait, i thought it useful to spend some time in writing these line.
At present i am fighting a battle against ogre magi: since there were quite a little bunch, i decided to ask for help, and had this guy joining..
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?warid=478201950
as many other beggars, he asked for money and, when he got a negative (as clearly precised on my profile) he just said "then do it on your own".
As i often said, i no longer pay, nor ask for money, but if somebody needs assists, am always available (free to the assisted to give something or not, if they like - i'll be there next time anyway).
Now, the kind of behaviour of my actual "partner" (if so we can call it) seems to me most inappropriate (obviously ^^).
So i started wondering.. What else one can do, in your opinion, beside writing the exact conditions in one's profile, to avoid this kind of people joining hunts?
Ideas, please :) | don't ask for assist ^^ i don't | get some hunting partner and friends. | keep passing by RED and Challenging huntings, do ur self on Medium, Green and Grey huntings .. :) | Er.. people, thanks ^^', but.. the point is missed..
I mean, "don't ask for assists": ok, then "don't play" is a shortcut ^^' hunting with an assistant is much more funny, and helps developping strategies. Beside, when you calculate, experience and skills will be much better for a character if you do many assisted hunts (being assistant/assisted, doesn't matter wich), than if you only do solo hunts.
Trusty partners and friends, yes, it is a good idea, and i do have a few, but they are not always available, and not always at the right place.. And i know that there are many player, like myself, that like to participate in hunts "randomly", so it is profitable to both if the circle of helpers isn't a closed one.
And, well, passing all challenging hunts.. well, it's a bit sad (beside, we all get some very strange hunts, 200 gremlins red, 1000 ogres green.. *hem*).
but what i was asking is if anybody thought of something to explain to people that wants mandatory payment that *they* are not invited..Other than writing it in profiles, since they don't seem to read those (surely because "they are right anyway" .. :p ) | Tell them: ok you get half the gold
and just don't pay a thing afterwards :)
fight immaturity with immaturity xD | thats why i only assist, but i do not ask for help myself
and why not share? its only a little gold | for Straws:
and why not share? its only a little gold
Beside the fact that sometimes it is indeed a little gold (19 - 20 + 1 ore or wood), and it would indeed be a minor issue, what i dislike is the fact that if you do not give them or promise them to give it, they just say "then die". It is the behaviour that i try to fight, not just the issue of the money itself.
But, the reason why i seldom share gold:
Since i am a heavy roulette player (*hem* ^^') I'm often short in money and, as it happens, i spend most of my (left!) earnings buying back minimal arts for fighting (my assists are free, so i often get no golds - and it's fine like that- but i use the arts like everybody else,and those have to be bought back later :D).
Have to say that, since i started playing on the market, things are getting a little better, but the road is long before i'll be able to finish my DE development*..
(* char is a double wiz/de) | I would have to say, deal with it.
I myself give half the gold for assists. But I also got tired of sorry helpers so I seldomly ask for help outside of my clan.
I also would appreciate half the gold seeing as I did help but no longer make an issue of it.
So as I am one who would prefer getting money for assists but don't, I just deal with it, my advice is the same to you.
Deal with it.
Absolutly nothing else can be done other than the sound advice YOU asked for and shot down, just like the way people ignore you standpoint, YOU my friend, have done the same in dismissing everyones opinion on your subject.
If you don't want advice why ask for it? Now I'm sure you'll have some smart alec rebutel, but I don't care. No matter what you say, your still gonna have the same problem reguardless. | there are several solutions.
1. stop playing roulette while you still can (besides that, only 1,2KK doesn't make you a heavy player, it makes you a roulette beginner)
2. pay the assist cash if the persons ask for it. it is always just a few coins, and if the person feels better with knowing you'll give it to him, all would be much better. most of my hunting partners today are people whom i've met randomly, and after a couple of hunts together, we stop sharing as we know that we are always there to help each other.
3. get a clan, an active clan with a group of good people, and there will be always someone to help you out. | well there's nth you or anyone else can do about that, its their choice to behave that way, and since its not against the rule, they get away with it
so maybe just get over it, most ppl aren't like that, only very minor people are
Tell them: ok you get half the gold
and just don't pay a thing afterwards :)
fight immaturity with immaturity xD
or try this, but i personally kept quiet last time when people asked for share in hunt last time, not that i don't share, but only with those people who did their part | 11.
You're probably right, it's just that i dislike even more not to be clear about my own intentions towards others.. :) Oh, well, was just trying and seeing if somebody else had ideas that i didn't think of.
Lucida-naz posts shows me that this thread is ready to degenerate in one of the usual sensless arguments that often populate this forum.
Thus wisdom imposes a QATC. Thanks to all others for participating. | closed by telca (2009-04-19 15:11:51) |
