well when I started, it wasn't like that. I remember a few veterans who actually helped me gain items. (well some of those veterans already quit) well some of us still help people, I think Jay does when he isn't busy. W
Well to be frank, not only the veterans are sometimes douchebags, but other newbies are like that too. I kinda remember guys in thor and lhz that kill newbies and say noob to you, even though they just started a while ago too. I actually removed all my headgears to look like a newbie and they did that to me too. In essence, a lot of guys are like that, but a few isn't. the problem is it's hard to find those kind of people since most of them are:
1. inactive
2. AFK when you see them
3. too busy with guild related stuff or hunting
well if you have any questions regarding items in the server or other things you can pm me In game or in the forums. n______n
