My ow...Unfortunately, not all stories are as sweet. My own, I had someone helping me. Telling me what to look for in my gear, giving me links. I absorbed them like a grateful sponge, also learning lore as I went... So I tried for a long time to be just as helpful to others. After months of trying to help people, explaining specs and armor and giving them links to the sites I used "growing up"... I found that people rarely wanted help. I've been chewed up, spit out, sworn at, and just... became very harsh towards most noobs.<BR/><BR/>It's because of these things... that I've become grateful for the people that WANT help. People that say, "Hey, I'm new, could someone give me a pointer?" and actually thank me when I sit down with them and try to help them... most of the time, I take such things to whisper because there's invariably another Hunter/Rogue/Paladin/whatever, who "knows" what they're doing and is doing it all wrong... yet is.. invariably.. aggressive and stubborn in trying to teach the wrong methods...<BR/><BR/>And I also thought that Priests were out to get me with that nasty Fort buff :P I kept wondering why they would attack me once and run off.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-949007764726419255.post-91186373693532783572008-08-23T20:56:00.000-07:002008-08-23T20:56:00.000-07:00Its Mania's fault.

This blog here of MW's though was most of the inspiration to start my own.<BR/><BR/>Nearly everyone starts as a noob, even those who have other players advising them. Pointing a newbie at some of the excellent blogs linked from here, maniasarcania, pikes blog and others is a great help... but only if they are willing to listen!Cryptographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00396055699591027683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-949007764726419255.post-39546084743632575242008-08-17T21:42:00.000-07:002008-08-17T21:42:00.000-07:00You totally have, at least on me.
