Pay It Foward Project

Recentley a friend of mine has shown many acts of kindness and I just wanted to dedicate this post to her.

I have been thinking on making a little project on WoW. Its called the pay it forward project. This is how the idea came to mind.

I joined a guild a while back that came on really strong about respecting others , being nice and in return they would be nice to me. The guild leader would literally go to level 1 starting areas handing out 16 slot bags to level ones. This made me think.. How could someone be so generous as to waste their money on a level one who might not even make it in the future of WoW.

There is no conclusion. She is just so kind.

People say that everyone in WoW is nice. But what about the people that flame threads? Or the people who ignore the cries of noobs? Maybe its just the fact that when they were noobs no one helped them and they just dont care anymore.

Is there anyone who actully cares anymore like my old guild leader? Or do you just not waste your time on people that MIGHT make it in the future because I have realized that when I was level one I didnt think I would make , I thought I would quit.. You might say its not that hard but considering the kindness of my guild leader just makes me want to find out who else in WoW cares.

Basically the pay it forward project is for people who care, I want you to sign this post saying if your the one who doesnt care, the one who does care, or the one who gave up. Just remember the days when you started off leaving the starting zones of Azeroth.- Aillias

There have been a lot of threads and discussions had where people in the community have expressed the things others have done for them or things they've done for others. I've been lucky enough to experience both.

I've had people help me out on quests or quick runs through a dungeon for something I need and I've helped others with quests, items, gold, and dungeon runs as well. I truly believe that you get what you give and despite the negatives that occur, they are the minority and not the majority. It's just sticks in your mind longer when the experience is a negative one.

I really enjoy these types of threads since it brings about some genuine discussion on the positive experiences people have had in the game and with their guilds. Being an MMO, the people you play with are one of the most important aspects. It is often what keeps someone coming back for more. It's the memories you create as you move through the game and hopefully the fun you get from sharing that with each other.
