Here, have a YPP post

[napoleonherself]

Usually when n00bs bug me I just refuse all their various requests and they go away. Sometimes, though, they prove more persistant.

During all of this I am working on shipwrighting. Naturally, if I am working, that means people should come up to me and start asking me to do things for them.

[insert about three hearty requests from Bogeys, all of which I refuse]
[17:01:31] Bogeys says, "hey please be my harty?"
[17:01:33] Ye receive 15 poe for yer work.
[17:01:36] Fenestra says, "Why should I?"
[17:01:50] Bogeys says, "because i am new and i have no hartys"
[17:02:06] Bogeys says, "please"
[17:02:10] Fenestra says, "Hearties should be yer friends, people ye have things in common with."
[17:02:18] Fenestra says, "Last I checked I knew nothin about ye."
[17:02:22] Fenestra says, "So ye ain't my friend."
[17:02:34] Bogeys says, "why rnt ye my frend"
[17:02:49] Fenestra says, "Because I don't know ye?"
[17:02:59] Bogeys says, "ie there is no point being with you because you nasty"
[17:03:22] Bogeys says, "y r u nasty?"
[17:03:35] Fenestra says, "Put yerself in my shoes. Should I add every single person who asks, ever, to me hearty list?"
[17:03:44] Fenestra says, "And if I should, then why?"
[17:03:50] Bogeys says, "sorry bum head"
[he leaves the room, then comes back; also Rangleytared comes in about this time]
[17:04:27] Bogeys says, "hey you girl why r u so nasty?"
[17:04:45] Fenestra says, "Why do you think I owe you a hearty-add?"
[17:04:52] Bogeys says, "i am new"
[17:05:00] Fenestra says, "Too new to know it's polite to say 'hello' first?"
[17:05:08] Bogeys says, "hello"
[17:05:10] Fenestra says, "Also, yes, you are new. Should I add every new person in the entire game to my hearty list?"
[Rangleytared sends me three hearty requests, which I reject]
[17:05:16] Bogeys says, "i am sorry abou that"
[17:05:34] Bogeys says, "you dont have tio like me"
[17:05:40] Rangleytared tells you, "hi"
[17:05:46] You told Rangleytared, "Eh?"
[17:06:00] Fenestra says, "I've got no real opinion of ye, lad, aside from that you're rather pushy."
[17:06:00] Rangleytared tells you, "whats the eh mean"
[17:06:09] Bogeys says, "pushy?"
[17:06:13] You told Rangleytared, "What's with all the hearty-requesting?"
[17:06:14] Bogeys says, "what u mean"
[17:06:32] Fenestra says, "Ye definitely seemd ta think I owed you something for a bit there."
[17:06:34] Fenestra says, "So, pushy."
[17:06:53] Rangleytared tells you, "you said that you would put people on yor list"
[17:07:01] You told Rangleytared, "Did I, now."
[17:07:04] Bogeys says, "what do you except of me i am the sign of the devil i can get moody sorry"
[17:07:22] Fenestra says, "Sign of the... devil?"
[17:07:23] Rangleytared tells you, "like a min ago"
[17:07:30] Bogeys says, "yes devil"
[17:07:36] Bogeys says, "the bad devil"
[17:07:56] Bogeys says, "the dark angel of death"
[17:07:58] You told Rangleytared, "Actually, I didn't."
[17:08:02] Fenestra says, "I see."
[17:08:08] Bogeys says, "the devil red nasty"
[17:08:15] Bogeys says, "i love you"
[17:08:17] You told Rangleytared, "I was questioning why I, of all people, should have to add people just because they're new."
[17:08:20] Fenestra says, "How lovely."
[17:08:29] Rangleytared tells you, "haha"
[17:08:31] Bogeys says, "do you love me"
[17:08:33] Bogeys says, "?"
[17:08:36] Rangleytared tells you, "you lie"
[17:08:37] Fenestra says, "Nope."
[17:08:41] You told Rangleytared, "Do I, now!"
[17:08:41] Bogeys says, "ok"
[17:08:48] Bogeys says, "it doesnt matter"
[17:09:05] Bogeys says, "but do you know anyone who would love me?"
[17:09:21] Fenestra says, "Not offhand, no."
[17:09:29] Bogeys says, "owww"
[17:09:36] Bogeys says, "i am sad"
[17:09:50] Bogeys says, "i havnt had any luck at all"
[17:10:36] Fenestra says, "A pity."
[17:10:43] Bogeys says, "can you help me?"
[17:10:46] Bogeys says, "please"
[17:11:02] Fenestra says, "With...?"
[17:11:14] Bogeys says, "getting stuf and thing like that"
[17:11:34] Fenestra says, "Best way to get started is to go on a few missions, get a feel for the puzzles that make up the game."
[17:11:56] Fenestra says, "Ye should have the new pirate help up on the right side of your window, under hte 'ahoy' tab. Take yer pick."
[17:12:06] Bogeys says, "yeah but still can you help me"

And then I go away and leave him to his idiocy. Or his youth and TOS-breaking, if he really is five years younger than the minimum age requirement.

I'll never understand how if you're wearing non-greenie clothes, you must therefore do whatever any greenie asks of you at any time. Blows my mind.
