Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Now I'm pretty sure if you have been a member any longer than a year... or almost 3 in my case, you'll understand what I mean.

I'm tired of people being absolutely generious to me and when I say something about it because some NOOB has to open their inexperienced mouth and accuse me of being a "Richie" for having items they can't ever dream of reaching... it's not because I spend all my time on Gaia... No, actually I try not to spend that much time on here... but it's because when we became members the items like this were cheaper.

Now, what ever happened to that generiousity... I mean, you can find it in most of the older members, because we helped eachother out all the time.

I used to absolutely love finding some random person and donating to them... it made me happy... and now I don't so much because they don't understand how hard we worked to earn that... Sure the items were cheaper then... but we didn't have the Gaming system with money prizes, you didn't get 50 g for your first post... we got between 3-7g and posted like mad people... we worked for it.

I dunno, maybe this is just my ranting... but the new members who don't know of that time when we were a huge family make me mad. They take it all for granted when someone donates to them... they expect everything they want handed to them... I don't think it's right. When we got events, they were actually worth something... I miss those days.
