[Ansteorra] History/Enculturation/Cliquishness....

[Sean Hertzberg]

Your Grace,

Good to see you about.  ;)

I agree.  It is a wonderful privilidge to help others.  I think it is part
of what makes our game fun and that the mundane world would be much better
if all behaved in such a manner and asked to help on a regular basis.

But...as I said before, EXPECTING everyone to drop everything at the drop of
the hat is a bit annoying.  While it does not take much to ask if someone
needs a hand, it takes just as much to be polite in asking for help or
politely declining when it is offered.

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. I consider them unwise and I know they
are dangerous. Also, sinful. If a man should challenge me, I would take him
kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet retired spot and
kill him."
            ~ Mark Twain
