i dunno...
i dont have a job, but ive found ways to give back to this community...
i usually wait for big sales & purchase games that i feel people would like, that are within my budget..
when im really poor on specific months, ill grab a Gala Bundle or what have you & try & split it up so everyone is well fed...
i kind of see this community as a subscription based community but instead you hand out what you can in games to fellow members to be welcomed into the community with open arms...
its a way of paying it forward...
theres always ways to help give back to the community, even if it is a little bit...
if you can't, then i suggest its best to lay low until you can...
this is my own opinion...
Momo1991: I completely second Sachys comments - Excellent points teshra and nicely put in a kind and respectful manner.
Seanobi, I meant every word I said when I posted a few days ago...try to listen to what is being said to you and find a way to be a bit less "needy". I really, really get where you're at - young, unemployed and gee, here is this great place with lots of candy... but life is about balance. If you take this unbalanced attitude into work (when you finally find it), it will get you into trouble. If you take this unbalanced attitude into your relationships...well view what's happened the last few days as a microcosm of life.
And let me remind you that there are plenty of unemployed peeps - you aren't the only person struggling to make ends meet in this community. Being jobless is no excuse for bad behavior - and greediness is bad behavior. No one owes you free RPG's because you don't have a job but many here will gladly gift them to those a bit less fortunate. But thinking and acting like you just got handed the keys to the candy store and can now do whatever you please will absolutely ensure that no one will ever hand you the keys ever again.
Anyway, I hope you can hear what peeps are endeavoring to communicate to you and hear it for what it is - helpful suggestions - not Seanobi bashing.
Dracomage, I do see some effort on your part - now the proof is in the pudding. Keep at it - it won't go unnoticed...
Finally, I realize that my comments are just the opinion of an older female gamer and so easily discounted but I urge you both to heed the words of your peers. This is a great community - let them give you something more valuable than a few free games.
Seanobi: I completely agree with you... I don't take things for granted, at all... I am 24... It is just how things are right now, and I am not trying to be greedy at all. In fact, I take peoples hearts and souls and thier giving ways, as the gold, and not the materials they present. I am not materialistic in anyway. It may sound like it, but I am not. I take people from who they are, and how they are, as the actual gift. :)
I whole-heartedly agree :)
