Perfect example of why to help each other
 

I had to share this story.

I've had a lot of help from some of you guys on this server, and it's very appreciative.

I just hit level 44 on my mage, Gades, and was tryin my hand at Seafuries in OOT. Was going good and this rogue asked me to help him kill the AC that was up at the camp when he arrived there. I was thinking (why camp it if you can't kill it).

I decided to help him nuke it down and let him have the ring, in exchange for me to have the camp. I've never camped AC before.

Karma rewarded me 2 respawns later with another AC.

Lesson: What goes around comes around.

Thanks again to everyone that's helped me thus far and tips and stuff.

Sweet story dude - good karma is good.

+1

Coincidence, karma, luck...WTFE

+1 For your helping and quick realization of reward.

If you would have let the rogue die, you would have saved yourself an hour.

I would think that since this time around, it's free/donations supported server, people would take their time with their characters and really have the community as the focus of their play.

On the forums, this is not apparant.

On the actual server, I've met tons of cool people like the OP who are there to enjoy the game as well as to relax and help others too. There's no luclin/pop/etc expansions to get into the EQ rat race for anymore.

I think this is what Classic EQ server is all about and anyone new checking out the forums for the first time to decide on whether playing on here or not should realize that forums does not really showcase the vibe of the actual server.

Besides, real life already has us in a rat race, lol.

I bet that there're more cool stories like the first post.

This.

Most of us are actually really cool in game, we just like to taunt each other on the forums. :)

^^^^THIS.
