Cautious is not an excuse for rudeness.
When you weigh the options, lose everything vs take a chance on someone offering a hand?
It’s not a good idea to bite that hand. Especially in a public venue.
I once made a character on someone’s server just to show them how to obtain some resources, then I left.
I’m a PC steam player, I have helped people before.
Yet, you don’t see me offering help now do you? I wonder why that is?

It’s just because i really don’t care anymore.
In times, especially when you progress a character, every single item, every single follower has value.
But when your progress reach the highest goal, then everything you have just decorates a “corner”.
I wasn’t the kid who decorate his toys, i was giving them away. My best was when my father taking us to the orphanage to give them to orphans. Their happiness is still in my eyes. Giving is a beautiful feeling. There’s not better goal to make others happy.
As i said to @Taemien a couple weeks ago, all of you in this forum are dear friends to me. So all of you are above this game and it’s digital assets. We may join here to speak for the game (god bless Funcom) but it’s not the game that kept me here, but you, all of you.
Thank you guys and gals, i love you, sincerely!

Yes, I agree. I was only speaking to his apprehension, not his attitude.

UH, I ASKED HOW IT WORKS. AND PEOPLE STARTED ACTING WEIRD.
Or going to an internet cafe.
Any of those seem better than:
Stranger: I can help you on Playstation
Me: [I’m PC but] what possible consequences are there to letting someone in my clan [so I can weigh it as an option against the other four I have]
Stranger: Ye have offended my honor with such a question!
Stranger2: How dare ye!
Stranger3: Scoundrel!
Stranger4: So good luck building a new castle!
Stranger5: How rude ye are!
You asked…
Then @jmk1999 replied…
Then @stelagel said
Then you chose Insult over a polite response or to ask for someone to elaborate
And then everything got weird.
You could have said you didn’t understand, or you could have politely declined.
Or you could have done any number of things, without insinuating the offer and people making the offer were of an unsavory nature.
I play on more than one server, But like @CodeMage and @stelagel said, it’s all just pixels to me and to other long time players.
I would even consider helping now, if you concede you made an erroneous assumption, and made a mistake.

No thanks, I wouldn’t trust you or any of these other people unable to interpret the chain of events here or how the full text of what stelagel said to me was rude or out of place. “I don’t care about your damn Rolex I don’t need one and I’ve seen a million of them and nobody else here cares either” basically.
Be easier to take any of the other 4 options, find someone I do trust, rebuild my castle in single player, or just go play a different game due to deranged and/or toxic community. Ta.

I reread the entire thread, and I do not see anywhere steagel insulted you in any way, only the reverse.
Still I wish you good luck, if not in preserving your base at least in rebuilding it.

This is just a miscommunication.
English is not stelagel’s first language.
He was saying he wouldn’t harm your base, or take anything.
And that he was risking his own status by helping also.
Because if it turned out you had used exploits he could be banned with you.
Just by association.
We actually have only a few toxic people, if you choose to stay, you’ll see that for yourself.
If you had been around longer, been active on the forums longer.
I believe you would have understood better, and saw like the rest of us have, that stelagel is a good person.
We seemed toxic only because we rallied in defense of our friend.

This. I’ve noticed @stelagel can sometimes sound a bit off-putting if context wasn’t understood. He can be snarky at times, but also be quite literal and not actually intend what it sounds like he’s saying. He’s also assumed the same with some of us at one time or another. He chewed me out once after misinterpreting my context lol… These things happen with English forums when you have other people from other regions that are trying communicate. No offense to @stelagel … I just understand.
@innocentexile i think much of this topic was taken out of context and I apologize if we came across sounding insincere. It was not our intent.

Let’s all become enablers, shall we? 
The guy is a dick.
Not only has he not apologized to Stelios as he keeps distributing insults all around, still failing to recognize his mistake.

Please keep this, truth can be rude, but this was not my intention and i already apologize if this was what you get and continue, because this topic has a Nobel quest!
That is to find a way for players to have an extra decay timer if life comes unexpected, or different than the everyday routine. Because this is the greatest reason we adults play games, to escape from this routine even by making another one yet really pleasant like gaming is.
So! What can we suggest to this matter?
And i am asking you now @innocentexile, would you be able to pay with real money to get this extra decay timer?
Now i am asking all the rest that visited this topic through the fass (let’s use this correctly), do you agree to the idea that someone can pay for extra decay timers?
My opinion stands neutral, because i don’t care of loosing, it gives me new reasons to play again. However i wouldn’t mind if other players had this option.

I have no issue with you @stelagel it was other people here looking at things through rose tinted glasses.
I would pay for an extended decay timer, yes. I just spent $40 to buy a friend a gift copy of Conan so they can log in for me.
Here’s some solutions we have come up with (table formatting in this software is terrible):
A. Get friend to help:
1. Family
2. IRL friend with Steam
3. Online friend with CE
B. Use cloud gaming service
C. Take gaming laptop
D. Internet cafe

I think he was rude but it could be largely language/cultural as I said early on in this thread. Let’s put it behind us.

Thank you

Thank you! I believe you and i understand the reasons someone would do such thing, especially in pve or pve-c servers.
All that remains is now our fellow exiles to lay their opinions on this matter only, please let’s forget the misunderstanding and focus to the real issue that exists here which is not me vs you.
But the love of people for their efforts and creations through the years.
We shall not forget that we must support each other and be one when an Exile is in need.
Please fellow exiles give us your feedback here.
Thank you!

It is language related. You were correct from that initial comment. You probably should have taken that more into consideration.
I’ve been watching this thread and cringing.

Your reading of the situation is yours.
My reading is different:
P1: Wow, this situation will be inconvenient because of rules that have been in place for over 5 years!
P2-99: Here are options
P1: You are all thieves and scoundrels!
P2-99: Okay, have a nice day.
P1: WHY WON’T ANYONE HELP ME
