Do not feed the nubs - Guest - 02-21-2009
Some time ago i made a new char for the lulz to see how would people react to a guy rping a battleship with a crew and such in a starflea xD
Needless to say i was getting shot at by some lvl 9 patriot all the time, then some lvl 5 flea.
Suddenly i get a mil or half a mil from about four guys so i could get a better ship or summut. had to return it afterwards.

If I'm feeling generous, sometimes I'll anomalously ping 1mil to the lowest leveled character on the server before I log off. Needless to say, I don't feel generous very often:P

Don't feed the nubs... interesting. Problem is, sometimes the nubs are actually helping each others. Also, you've gotta realize that with patience, they'll eventually get that Whale, and ultimately that cattlebruiser.
On a slight unrelated note: Don't the feed the trolls either:P

Heh I remember when it was Christmas, and sometime around 01:00 AM, I decided to hop into FL, went around NY, spouting slogans and handing out cash to nubs.
Also, don't laugh, but I bought 4 souls.
I just asked people if they'd sell their soul for 2 million credits, and almost all starfleas agreed.:P
For teh lulz, I bought them.:lol:

He gave them to me and I ate them.
Anyway, if I ever give cash to someone, it will either be 100k off the back, or 1mil of they tag along and work for me.

I try and employ nubs if they ask for money, one said he would do something then didnt, my character will not be very nice next time we meet.

Hehe in the olden days i used to hire 3 to 5 nubs, to escort me around sirius with my luxury liner... (it is hard to hit tradelanes on auto pilot, in formation flight thou it's easy)... So i gave them RP missions, and such, bring me that bring me something else, take me there, restock, get hawks, i want to have nice escorts, not rhinos!... It was darn fun... on the ol Red Baroness. It gives them 10x more than they can make trading in a rhino, and it gives you lots of fun.
Or Santa Hawk, (used to be Green Hawk), if a nub found me he would get a million, if he would find me have a healthy id, 2 milions. If i would get genuinly pleased by their great roleplay I'd give them even 10... Feed the nubs, but feed them for the right reason.

Personally I feel loans are much better, gives the nubs a boost, teaches them about being responsible(as in paying back) and is great for testing to see who is trust worthy, and who can make a decent amount from a decent amount.:D
I've been given at least 3 or 4 loans, payed back each plus more.

Well id second Dusty. Giving them money is not enough *cough*. You have to guide them how to use it responsively.
