Your well known pain in the butt here .. today I throw something new out. A lot of you longtime players just wait for something to happen with the game .. and we all know that this isn't changing anything. So here is my challenge .. help the game by helping actively the newcomers. For you who followed my posts know how frustrated I got in the beginning .. close to give up and leave the game. Thanks to a some very helpful members I stuck it out and enjoy the game now. Last weekend I found a newcomer .. kinda helpless wandering around .. I offered my help .. gave him a steel pick ( 2/0) and some slag to teach how to repair , put him in my wru so I can help him without having to be around , next day I gave him a dagger and showed him where to start hunting .. next weekend I will show him how to invent blackpowder ( the few resources are worth it). If now some longtime members would do the same to newcomers or similar ( you know each other probably well enough as to the timezones so that not all of you , if any, show up at the same time) we could not only raise the membership of the game but also get some money flowing for the dev's and show them that the game can be viable. And if you think its not worth your time .. when was the last time you heard someone saying " I just got 4 skill advancement units. is that bad? " . I'm not saying this will change everything but its worth a try .
But that's just an old guy talking
