durm77 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) I just wanted to take some time and thank the kind souls who reach a helping hand down to lowbies and let them sit in on their fire farms. I wanted to change the lyrics of 2pac's 'Dear Mama' to something more befitting my gratitude to these kind people, but I don't have the talent. Still, I hope to communicate the same sentiment. These kind men and women see lowbies in need of xp, money, advice, or all three and offer them a leg up in this cruel world of mediocre xp radio missions, abusive open-world mobs, and short AFK timers. Just mostly replace 'Dear Mama' in this song with 'Dear Farma'. Some places it just doesn't make any sense whatsoever...just roll with it.

Czar Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 I do all three. I farm, lead farms and sometimes just play the game as it was, before the introduction of AE. THere ae times I wish AE as implemented differently because how it has changed the game. Then there iare times I just dont care. THe only thing that I care about is having fun and people being kind and gracious. Nothing burns my bippie more than taking people on farms and they complain or comment its not fast enough or the exp isnt good enough.

Troo Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 This advertorial paid for by big farma.

roleki Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 My advice? Don't take anyone's advice. These forums are filled with goons who would see you waste your time killing cranium rats for every fucking character, because they erroneously believe your time is as worthless as theirs and can't fathom why someone would want to skip the tedium that somehow still amuses them after 20 years. 1 1 4 4 Anything you can have, we have it.

Sovera Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I'm lost by now. Are people in favour of fire farms or playing the game?
