More than half of this entire thread is incredibly sad. Here's what I do. I give advice if people ask for it. If people ask for money, I say no and stop talking to them. That's it. I don't cry or post about it on the forums, I get on with me and mine. I'm not going to work myself up over what some random guy does or says. I don't give a damn if they end up getting bored and quitting or if they end up joining some faction or if they turn in to silent traders. Chances are they would have gone down that route with or without my help. As far as I'm concerned, if they can't play a video game without someone holding their hand and giving them top tier stuff on a silver platter, they shouldn't play the damn game. I'm all for offering advice but at the end of the day I'm not Ghandi and I honestly couldn't care less.
