New People

I agree.

I help newbies with a little, but as some know am very much against when they can buy large homes and expensive things. This is one of the major contributors, IMO to the inflation we have.

My position remains the same. A little advice, a nudge in the right direction, and a bit of spending money (as was given to me).

Just to nitpick.

Handing out money to newbies has nothing to do with inflation; the obscene payouts and free money do. Then people have a zillion credits on hand that they've got nothing better to do with, and hand off to newbies. Or to their lowbie mules, which is probably the more likely scenario.

I chose "Don't care". If you're not going to help, don't. If you are, do it. And if you're going to half-ass it, go for it.

[Telepathy] Yaru Dex projects: I thought Zamde doesn't have kids because her womb is full of aisobs.

You can't spell "slaughter" without 'laughter'.

I agree that exploring can be fun, as well as fatal when you enter an area only to learn the critters there are evil sons of- anyway, when I first came to Haelrahv, I received help, and even back in DR, I was of the camp that says that the best thing you can do when you are helped is to 'pay it forward' and do the same for someone else. I don't mean walking them through until they are 100+ and have more money than they can ever hope to spend. But a nice backpack, some cash, and a little guidance go a long way. And I tend to help those who are still new but have gotten their feet planted assistance as desired, as sort of a 'thanks for sticking around'. I'm okay with saving the backpacks and such things until they have shown they will stay, but a few thousand is a small price to encourage newbies to give us and Haelrahv a chance.
