You got to do it yourself.&#8221;"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>This has been one of my main focuses when it comes to a Multiplayer game. I don&#8217;t like it when people offer their help to me, because there&#8217;s always a price tag somewhere. Even when someone says &#8220;if you need anything else, feel free to ask&#8221; I feel &#8220;alright, how much is this going to cost me if I ask for it?&#8221; Overall, I try to not feel &#8216;needy&#8217;, because it turns into &#8220;I want to depend on you to make me things&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Yet sometimes, I reach a point where I feel I don&#8217;t have a choice and require help. For example, I need bricks and mortar made in Wurm. Saint, offered to help. But now, it seems he&#8217;s doing everything in his power to avoid doing just that. Though it seems both of us are getting confused here of who owns who. See, I agreed to pay him bricks for assisting..if he financed paying for the deed. He promised he would help me build the deed. Though, the terms of the deal was <em>after<\/em> the completion of the deed, that I would do the bricks.<br \/>\nBoth of these things didn&#8217;t happen, except for Saint&#8217;s side. I turned down his money, because I feel I couldn&#8217;t do it to him(and to found the deed still costed a fortune). Yet, I still expect him to help me. Yet&#8230;why should he, when I turned down his offer to finance the deed? I really don&#8217;t know why, but I think it&#8217;s the fact he talked me into using bricks for walls (which require making mortar).<\/p>\n<p>Saint, hates making bricks. This is why he&#8217;s got a friend to do it for him. However, the fact I&#8217;m not part of an Alliance (and respected), I&#8217;m treated like anyone who&#8217;s asking for this type of work done; being charged for the service.<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t like making bricks either. It&#8217;s very tedious. You have to grab shards, and combine them. The number of shards I need can never add up to the total of bricks I need (to cover for failures). This is what makes it tedious, and not exactly fun gameplay.<br \/>\n&#8230;And I&#8217;ve reached the point where I&#8217;ve gotten so tired of Saint&#8217;s excuses (having a real life isn&#8217;t one, by the way)..he keeps being busy doing deliveries for people. And it just seems he cares more about money than his friends (even though I would be an acquaintance to him).<br \/>\nI told him to just forget it, and I would just do the work myself. Very tired of the excuses. Though I don&#8217;t get why he just couldn&#8217;t say &#8220;look, I&#8217;m not doing the bricks for you. Find someone else. I don&#8217;t like doing them, that&#8217;s why I have someone else doing them.&#8221; Of course I would be utterly shocked of his reaction, but at least the &#8216;excuses&#8217; will stop (and in a way, I could move on and either do the work myself, or pay someone else to do them).<br \/>\nI will probably do the bricks myself. But the mortar, I&#8217;ll possibly have to pay someone to make. That shit is a BITCH to make at low levels (and I rather not even bother grinding it..there are better things to grind).<\/p>\n<p>Besides, Wurm&#8217;s core mechanic <em>is<\/em> supposed to be a simulation of real life, right? So&#8230;not everyone is &#8216;good&#8217; at everything under the sun (aka, I&#8217;m not good at making mortar, or rope-making, or tailoring, or cooking, or coal-making&#8230;(etc. etc)). And just like in an MMORPG, I refuse to be taught how to do it. \ud83d\ude1b<br \/>\nThere you go!
