There's a handful of them, I won't mention names, who just go on their AoB alt (if they even go on at all) an just look "cool" at B*.
I can probably name two that I think actually help, and they both know my way I see the others. They too see them that way, don't ask me who they are Bc I won't jeopardize anything they have done to reach AoB by saying their names.
I even had one of these AoBs tell me Twink, "Get out of here newcomer, this is for higher levels". Know what I did? I got on my main, guess what he knew who I was and then apologized. Claiming he wouldn't do it again, which I highly doubt is true.
In my eyes, many of these guys/gals are doing AoB to get "known", just for the "perks" (silly forum name), and to possibly be an SG. They don't do it to help, they do it for those things.
One thing I wonder is, why didn't they join an SL helping guild (i.e. PIT or SLH) when it was just about helping. No titles, no forum names, not even sponsored by the devs. All those people in those guilds (what like 15 actual helpers including myself) did Bc they knew what it felt like to be totally lost in a brand new game. We weren't obligated to ever go on, yet 6 of us (me Bod and 4 others who's main idk) all got on every night and went from base to bar answering questions and helpin in anyway we could.
If I see even a hint of those acts that we had done, being done by an AoB, I will take back what I said. To be honest with you, I don't see that happening.
