That said, you do need to understand that just from having the visibility of being on the AZ top 25, sometimes we do deal with a lot of stupid shit from day to day

- People asking for money, items, amenities, etc (this gets so much worse when you are in a gang)...

- People asking for help fighting someone else when often times they've started it.

- Gang invites, whether you're already in one or not

- People asking things that can be easily answered with a simple search or reading of the wiki

- People that want to be your runner

- Mails from random people that just say "what's up?"

So, I'm just saying we do get a lot of shit, some people just handle it differently than others. I've ignored my share of messages, and my block list is getting pretty long, but I also try and give back a lot too. The upper levels won't be here forever, and if all the new players get discouraged because of a few assholes, the game won't last.

From my personal experience; criming gets old because I don't need items or amenities, training gets old, because my stats are already better than most, can't go between prisons, and can't fight or mug because people do bitch about it. So you've got to do something to entertain yourself. It's how you choose to entertain yourself that shows who you are as a person. I'm not trying to excuse anyone's behavior, just giving you another point of view.

Hopefully I'm not one of the people that you're referring to, but if you are, mail me (if I haven't blocked you), and we'll work it out. More often than not, I try to be helpful and have fun, but sometimes it gets to you.
