gold beggars a detriment on al society

I hate it when I literally just got into town and they pm me "Pls give meh 2.5k, plsss", why even beg in a video game? But there is one more annoying thing than begging in this game. And that's the countless, "looking for bf" lmao, never knew this was eharmony.. Is it even possible to go out in game? Like if you don't sign in for a day, would they think you're cheating? O.O Lol this game's community is something else, at least some of it.

Guild CASTLES are seemingly becoming a dating hall (--"

I really don't like it when I glide through there to get to the hall. It's really amazing how quick they tap on you to send a messege or friend request. And when I mean fast, I mean, I'm running from one end of the circle to the other with a 13% speed bonus from abaddon. O.O.

Yes I know some people who dated in-game but never ended well.  don't try. Unless your extremely lucky.

I know that it's hard to get gold, but low level people who starts out on AL should know that its a "Pay-To-Win" game now 

Lol guild castle is eharmony central. The moment I step in i literally jump with my hammer skill to the other side in a matter of two seconds and i still somehow get pms from them. What pisses me off the most are little gold diggers that tell me, "I'll be your gf is you give me X amount of gold, or an item." I hate the noob community in this game..

I remember a time in SL when I suggested that the bounty boards in Blackstar be put to good use; the beggars would be marked and dealt with accordingly.

When a beggar asks for gold go into trade put one gold in they automatically leave lol

**Buriedalive** · 08-16-2013, 03:07 PM

100% agreed. Today someone begged me for 3k gold to be able to buy a "cheap" armor. I ignored he/she and he/she started to shout that I'm a scammer and everyone should report/ ignore me.
I especially hate those who randomly jumps in to a guild and start begging to get promoted to officer/ recruiter or whatever.

Another example: A guy randomly get invited to the guild, then he start asking for free mythic guns and to give him enough money to buy him one etc.
He gets kicked. Then he starts to sending me PMs that hes going to find me irl and kill me with his dad. That just want me to throw away my phone.

The beggars annoy me a lot too, but it is not too hard to ignore them if they are pushy (sometimes after a modest attempt to shame them, which I'm not proud of, but it is good for a laugh). However, I try to keep the whole "give a man a fish vs teach a man to fish" philosophy in mind. When a beggar seems to be a genuinely clueless player, or a newbie or kid who doesn't know it's bad etiquette to beg on AL, I will take the time to try and educate them and give them tips about ways to save up gold without begging. There are things I had no clue about when I first started that I wish I had known sooner (e.g. swapping out pets when they get hungry instead of autofeeding, and learning how to use the consignment store sooner).
