A discussion taking place on public game channel (not sure those were the exact lines, but that's how I remember it, and for sure there were a lot of BEEPS in there - hahaha): Me: "Any sweating circle going on at the outpost?" Someone: "Sweating is for su**ers!" Me: "Neah, not really, actually it can be kinda fun - it allows us to interact with others and make some money to sustain our small hunting activities." Someone: "Just go deposit, f***ing freeloader!" Me: "I wish, but I don't really have the money to do that, so trying to do my best to play with in-game options." Someone: "FFS, go get a job!" Me: "Unfortunately, not old enough to get a job, and plus, if I would be old enough, school would still be a priority." Someone: "Just go walk the dogs of your neighbors, you're never too young for that!" Unfortunately, my neighbors don't need someone to walk their dogs, but I thought at the next best thing - walking the virtual pets of my virtual neighbors from the game. Sooo.... do you want to level your pet faster? Do you have more than one pet and wanna level them both at the same time? If you answered yes to any of those questions, then YOU NEED ME! I can walk your pet (and do tricks with them every time when they are at 99%/100% focus) all my online time (which should be at least four hours per day) and offer even more afk walking if counting the times when I leave the computer open, but I'm afk. Your only responsibility is to make sure the pet is fed and I don't recommend this being done for low periods of time (only one or two days), because of the affection lose on trading the pet back and forth. I expect to be paid 1 PED / day (with maybe a bit extra if happening to have any "gaming marathon" going on) for that and I can eventually offer a collateral for the time the pet is in my possession (presuming is not a really valuable pet which exceeds in value all my posessions). Interested? Feel free to answer here, PM me on forum or PM me in game (Daughter of Anarchy is my name and pet walking is my game ).
Looks like my current customer kinda went MIA, so once again looking for someone interested in my service. Later edit: He's back.
On the accusation of being a "freeloader": You can dismiss that easily since the logic of these people is flawed. They just can't see beyond their own nose. For the balance sheet it makes no difference whom the money comes from. If you provide a service (e.g. gathering stuff) which another participant would pay for, then they have deposited in your stead (or in turn traded it from someone who did). You can spend time to save/earn money, or you can spend money to save/gain time. One cannot exist without the other, hence it is logically impossible to make a case against choosing one side for as long as you see fit. Good idea and good luck!
Since I'm back in the game, I'm potentially looking for restart this service. References from past customers could be provided on request; contact me either here or in the game (IGN Daughter of Anarchy) for more details or for potential orders.
For the moment I found myself a long term customer (leveling an Oratan Axe to level 18), so can't take new orders.
I'm hesitant to post here as I don't want to distract from the actual service advertisement, but I have noticed some posts about trust issues. I have no knowledge of the basis of those issues and I am not here to comment on them. While I would recommend people are very wary about giving custody of property to other players I do want to let people know that I successfully hired DoA during her previous time in the game. The work involved taking my materials and maps to do the map to key conversions for the UG instances, and as I arranged for DoA to convert around 100 maps at a time, there was a significant TT value in materials provided to her. I had no problems and would hire her for this work again. Of course it is up to each of you to make and take responsibility for decisions on who to trust and to what extent. KikkiJikki
DoA has my vote of confidence as well. I have dealt with her on a few occasions (I have never done anything pet related ingame, so not in terms of her current service) and there have been occasions where she had "stuff" of mine worth some amount of peds for some time, without any collateral. Likewise she trusted me on occasion to hold on to her "stuff" worth some peds as well, without collateral. Oh, she never asked me to post this, and she never mentioned this thread of hers. Exercising my own free will, blah blah ... lol. Of course this is just my personal experience. You have to make your own decisions regarding trusting someone.
