Pretty simple, what's the nicest thing (in game) you've done for somone or had done for you, completely at random?

For me I think it's giving away low lvl greens to low lvl people in the starter towns; Shing Jea, Kamadan & Ascalon.

Let the random nice-ities begin!

Helped out a newbie by showing him how basic things works in the game, helped him for some quest and taught him the basics for PvP. He's now R5 and became a fairly good player.

- Once I got scammed for 30k and some random stranger gave me 30k back, as it was Christmas (last year) which was the nicest thing anyone has ever done.

- My guild and alliance have also helped me quite a bit, giving me free minipets, cheap items and helping with runs to towns.

- I give golds I don't need to new players, help them if they have questions, take them through missions if they need help and give away consumables when I'm in the mood.

I don't remember many nice things done for me, honestly. Back near Thanksgiving someone threw in a few free Ciders in a trade, but that's all I can think of. But I haven't done many nice things either. I helped someone new to the game learn the basics. And I did that, plus gave this other new guy some free weapons, money, and materials. The second guy was my cousin, but still...It was a nice thing to do.

And the first guy quit I think...

If I were a noob I'd take that as a sign of a bad ingame economy full of corruption + inflation. lol.

Pointing people to wiki never hurts.

LOL everyone here is gonna lie because 99.9% of the people that play guildwars are the most horrid, cruel, and ugliest people I've ever played with.

They sit in shing jea all day and find a new factions player... ask him if he got the collectors edition and there like "hey, ill give you 2 platinum for that silly dragon toy you got" scamming them out of 98k.

Everyone that plays this game is a fhukking asshole, cept me. im like jesus.

I gave 50k to some random in Shing Jea once. That was because the people in local said I'd never do it...my competitive nature comes out lol

But I reguarly clean out my mules by donating everything on them to my guildies/alliance friends. Some of the golds are actually worth more than merchant fodder as well.

Nicest thing ever done for me? Probably when some guy took me Over The Wall in pre-searing to show me how it's done.

The last time I told someone to type /wiki to help him with finding an elite skill he flamed me for not just telling him where to cap it (like I or anyone should really know where to get every elite)

That was in alliance chat too. I play the game with all and trade chat off most of the time.
I should start telling people that alt-f4 = god mode too or some other stupid thing.

Or maybe grieve in PVE pugs on my monk by playing a mending bonder or 55 smite monk. Time to spread some holiday blues :-)

I usually give away any excess green weps to low level characters in starting towns for free.

Actually sometimes its hard to give away things for free, maybe folks are suspicious of random generosity

Gave 2 free beacons - droks run a couple days ago, following it with an ascalon-droks run

Then I gave a Lion's Arch-Sanctum run with all stops for some people

Then I gave a full desert run.

All free, feels good, plus I give away req9 max weapons to low levels if I dont need them

Put the peanut in the peanut hole!

Whenever I make a new character I always have them get ran to SC/desert area/droknars/ascalon and such. and what I always do is save random gold drops that I get that I don't need.. and feel that they'r too 'precious' to send to the merchant so I save them all up.. and when I get on my newly created characters I carry them on those characters.. so while i'm getting a run I always talk with the other people getting ran and ask questions about how long they been playing gw and the such and if they tend to be having crappy weapons (imo. i guess.. haha) I offer them a weapon (of course saying that I have something that works for their profession).

Now.. I guess it's kinda weird.. because these other people obviously have money for a run.. so they must have money for atleast a decent weapon.. I guess.. but it's still nice to give.

Also.. if I'm doing some of the low missions in ascalon while i'm level 15 or whatever I always try to join partys with the lower levels and help them thru the mission ask them questions and offer weapons if needed. :P

Just something I always did.. and will continue doing.



/Edit.. I totally wrote like a life-story here.. Haha..

Whenever I am doing "The Time Is Nigh" - I ferry people to the Docks for free.


And sometimes - when someone says something REALLY dumb - I just ignore them rather then exposing them for the moron that they are!
Ohh my - is that a halo I see over my head?

When I was playing a struggling mesmer, a bored Warrior took me from the northern wall in Ascalon all the way through the game to Beacons, complete with Mission/Bonus for everything.

In return, I occasionally do the Ascalon run myself. I also give away armor materals/my noob greens, answer questions with something other than "try /wiki", help with quests, etc. I also never charge for dock ferries. Tips are always welcome, and I've been surprised a few times by the generosity of other players, but it's not like I'm doing anything that takes skill.

Last year I stayed up to get every mini pig possible just so I could go and give them all away to people who couldn't get them :3 I've also given away atleast 500K worth of money and items. I remember once some guy asked for 7k I gave it to him and right then he gave me 8k back o.o Apparently I won one of his challenges o.o Because I offered money no questions asked I won 1k. I was so confused but I was happy none the less :3

When I got legendary skill hunter a guy asked for my help to get some obscure elite in Perdition Rock. We went, capped it and then this guy kept asking for help every single red engine day, until I put him in my ignore list.

I don't help strangers a lot, for this very reason. You do something nice once and they keep asking for more and more and more like we know each others from years ago.
I wasn't supposed to do anything in the first place, just say thank you and leave me alone.
