Agreed, but this is usually someone talking/typing to me, so I try a little harder as well. How often does it go like this?
other pirate: Please help me!
you: How can I help you?
other pirate: <says nothing>
<click plus sign> you: How can I help you?
other pirate: <says nothing>
<click plus sign> you: I cant help if I dont know how to help you.
other pirate: help kill things
At this point im lost because im not prepared to teach someone the whole game via the + chat. Im not about to run around helping this person kill whatever they want. Now if the response is:
other pirate: need help with lvl 15 brigands where do i find them?
or something like that.. I will gladly help out.
but "help kill things" just wasnt going to cut it, this game is basically PG rated, and parents should be helping in this situation.
Another perspective... Friend box pops up.
me: Sorry matey, I dont friend people I dont know, and that dont talk to me.
pirate: no response
me clicking +: Sorry matey, I dont friend people I dont know, and that dont talk to me.
pirate: no response
me clicking NO on friend response.
pirate: please?
me (with +): I dont friend people I dont know, Is there anything I can help you with?
pirate: please be my friend.
me (with +): I dont add people to my list I dont know, can I help you in some way?
pirate: please, please be my friend.
This is where I teleport away.
