Hi, I am in the mood to start a nice thread. A cool thing happened last night that made me feel good.
Here it goes... I have been playing a while. Over the years I have offered help in many ways. Links to builds,quest walk throughs, solvers, planners etc etc. In game, I also like to play the philanthropist. To me, generousity can makes someones day. Over the years, I have handed out (estimates) 10 Rings of Feathers,40 underwater action items,GH relics,Tapestries, High end stuff too, Scourge chokers,FireStorm Greaves, Bloodstones, lots and lots of plat,armor pots etc etc... the lilst goes on and on...Anyway, I always say to the person whom I am handing stuff out to one thing...."PAY IT FORWARD" ( yes from the movie) And explain briefly what that means, iff they don;t already know. To make a long story short, I caught up with someone I helped out about 4 months ago. He took the time to explain how much he appreciated what I had done and told me he too, helps out people now, and tells them to pay it forward also.
I know lots of us are very generous. "plat and stuff" come and go... I just got a good feeling about this and wanted to share..so, if some one helps you out in game..remeber to " Pay it Forward" it might have a greater impact then you might expect.
To sum it up: I effected someone in a positive way, by 3 simple small words. And feel great about it.
Thanks for listening!
