The kindest thing anyone has done for you

[RedThothCrowley]

It's a simple question. The answers will hopefully give all players new and old a nice feeling.

What is the kindest thing anyone has ever done for you in EU.

I'll list a few myself, as I am fairly new and all kind things seem to weigh about the same on the scale.

Dalas gave me a set of clothes my first week in game....thanks again man

Murphy Rake Law, a member of my soc has let me borrow scopes, lasers and amps for weeks at a time. Being that he didn't know me at all the first time he did this, I'd say it's a terribly kind and trusting act.

Many random people have helped me get tp's without being asked...and thanks to all of them.

So, let the replies start here. What's your story of kindness received?

LedEye giving me 100 ped to buy tp chip and ammo and stuff when i returned into the game.

Axel Beachmountain for lending me his Camo Urban for 2 weeks without knowing me IRL.

Habanero for lending me his DOA LM

Mindstar9 for giving me 50 ped just to help out when i was freshly returned into game and on for a WOF event.

Have probably forgotten some kind souls , may they forgive me.

Hmm... well, haven't exactlye been around that long but I think of the few I've experienced even in such a short time the one that stands out happened as a result of one of my frustration episodes.

I get them fairly regularly I suppose and maybe being new they happen more often as you're exploring different avenues hoping to find a niche for yourself and working out how to I suppose basically just survive. That's probably the best way to put it.

Anyway, it was one of those times, and I had been speaking with this individual about a few things and hitting the brick walls as I'm sure everyone has experienced and about ten minutes later I find myself added to a pilot's friends list with the message 'Take a break, I'll take care of stuff here' and the fare to CND there and back in my PED card.

A great gesture and one I appreciated enormously, just gave me a couple of hours to check the place out and look around before flying back, but was a terrific thing to do.

I was a brand new OJ/Goblin Shins running about. Had collected a few other New guys and had spent the last 3 hours trying to TP run from Zeus to Caravan to Minopolis. I already had it and was full of bravado (Follow me, I know the way!!!)

Damn Neconou.

The rag tag bunch finally limped or revived into Minopolis, and a well dressed chap asked if I had been doing a tp run. I said Yes and this chap gave me 2 peds for my efforts!!! This to me at the time was a fortune. 200 ammos worth!!! I was so chuft

This chap was Zap.

Kinda cemented in my mind the fact that there are a LOT of kind people in here. Have had many an adventure in my time here, and met a lot of really great folks. Cant list all the kind stuff.

But it started with a random guy giving me 2 peds

[kosmos]

After I graduated and was off on my own my old mentor sorin florin godzilla randomly saw me running around and gave me a just because type gift. The gesture meant alot to me. Seemed he cared about me after we hadn't talked much. He to this day randomly pops up somewhere I am at and says hello to me. Makes me feel like I was more than a free gift from mind arc and more of a friend to him. Thanks Sorin if you read this.

I rememberd when I 1st played long ago, hadnt joined/read/found the forums, but downloaded EU and played straight away;

I was stood at a tp and had no idea how to work it (lol) anyway, some ava came running up, so I said "excuse me, can I ask you a question?"

Their answer was "sorry, have to go" Then they jumped into the tp, and left me alone standing there.

I rarely meet new player's, but if I did, I would at least try to answer their questions (even if to just point them to EF)

However, there are alot of kind people in game, that continue to be my good friends, and people that have left.
Though hard to list the people, for fear of missing someone out

[RedThothCrowley]

I had the same fear of missing someone dj. That's why I listed no names on tp runs. Fairly sure I remeember every name, but don't want to tempt fate. hehe

Keep the stories coming!

[WoenK]

Can't hardly remember all names that were kind to me.
In the beginning all of the regular helpers at swamp camp, still remember the trivia games they played and I made my first two PED that way
Special thanks to "Mom" for almost always being there for the heals
My mentor, for at least answering the first questions I had (did not ask him almost anything after I found this forum and entropedia).


Special thanks for "Little Big Boss" Vinnie for being the best and supportive General I could whish to have and without whom I would still be a freelancer caught at that Outpost between Atlas North and Fort Argus having those Atrox chew on my bones.
After that all from our socs, especially "Big Boss" Lucky Seven for the sponsored trip to CP and a couple of times rescuing me from some LAs I was stranded on .
Like most others, I feel the kindest people are in ones soc
