The Mabinogi community of Tarlach. A nice, peaceful...hellish, community filled with uncaring arses.
Last night I saw how people enter the fashion contest with three alts, all with the Fashionable title. Isn't that enough? They have everything. The dress, the title, lay off and let OTHERS have a chance.
Then this morning my close friend was hacked, everything in her house stolen. Her large ribbon, terra gothic, bolero, kitty gloves. The works. :|
Why are people so...uncaring? While we may be pixels, theres still a human being using their precious time on this game. And doesn't it defeat the purpose of playing a game if you're going to just steal everything? Like hacking your way to the end of a game. What about all the other things? What about taking the time to enjoy it?
:D Sorry for the rant, I'm kind of pissed off at the moment.

People are greedy and just plainly don't care. Most people just play for their enjoyment, and don't really care if they step on other people. It sucks, but **** happens ; ;

Someone from the fashion contest is probably going on a hacking spree. Another one of my friends was hacked, thankfully he stopped it before anything was stolen.

Like my friends too.
Well, just have to watch your back on hacking. For things like that Fashion Show, we can't really do anything about that, sadly.

Some people just don't give a care and half of them don't know what "playing fair is" or "playing for enjoyment". Can't say that I don't feel sorry for those that got hacked, but you have real a** out there that just don't care. Degrades the game and experience of it for everybody in the long run.

Just... play the Fashion Game better than them? People are just trying to farm the dresses. (Or just get final prizes)

This extends far beyond just your community. In a sense, its our entire planet's community. Honestly, does the lack of consideration toward others or the selfishness really surprise you all that much? In this case, these people aren't trying to see anything through your eyes. They're trying to profit. The sad thing is, this is how the real world works as well. Competition is what it's all about. The powerful and the cunning will claim success, and they will leave behind the others. Your thoughts and your opinions mean absolutely nothing to any of these people, because those thoughts are revolving around PROFIT. As for your words on 'taking time to enjoy it'.. Hahaha, don't you realize that those types of people get their enjoyment from being the best as soon as possible without little to no real effort?

The fashion show. I get irritated when someone claims they're not selfish, but then they hog the title and try to sell the dress whenever they can.

no idea what the fashion show is, but i'm really sorry to hear about your friend getting hacked :C
and it's sad people can hack others and have such a nonchalant attitude about it, but people are selfish
about 4 years back my cousin asked me to lend him my MS account but i declined. later learned through a mutual friend that he was planning to steal it
sucks.
And doesn't it defeat the purpose of playing a game if you're going to just steal everything? Like hacking your way to the end of a game. What about all the other things? What about taking the time to enjoy it?
i wish more people thought this way u_u

Well, I guess that makes me feel stupid in a way.

there are a few mods to perfect the walking part of the fashion show, giving them a near perfect success rate of winning said contest (unless they get 1s all across).
