'Good Deeds'?

[M A F I A]

A Message I received this afternoon:

Hi,
I've just started playing OGame and as this Universe has been on for quite some time now I'd like to start up quite quickly, is it possible you could please send me some resources so I can get the builidings and research etc to get some ships and start raiding?
Of course I would give you it back and add more in a few days time!
Thanks,
Krissy

Message I sent back:

I am not a charitable and chivalrous donour that gives free contributes to poor or novice players, ESPECIALLY if I don't know them and ESPECIALLY if they do not belong to my alliance.  I really wonder WHERE you could have gotten this idea.

Message he wrote me back:

Sorry if I didnt say so, but you cannot compare it to a charity because I said I will give you all the resources back and some extra after a few days once I have my own fleet!
So you have nothing to lose and even moreso a few extra resource to earn. All I am asking is a helping hand, of course if you dont want to help me thats fine
P.S. Who says I might not get to know you or even join the alliance you'e in?

Message I sent him back:

1) You cannot 'give me back' anything in term of resources in game (Rules of Ogame, see Pushing)

2) I, as a leader of my alliance, am *NOT* so desperate that I have to 'bribe' new players in order to make em join my alliance.

3) If you are a friend, of course it's different, even a 100k of resources means nothing for my economy and I could help you, but that appears not to be our case, yet.

4) You might have misunderstood the 'Jumpstart' concept I posted on our alliance page. (See Jumpstart)

Message he wrote me back:

Ok then I may have misunderstood. As for the pushing rule - If i tell a GO that I am sending you back resources for what you lent me eralier I am sure he would have nothing against it.
But fair enough, I see your point wont ask again.
Good luck!

i got that message too.
i looked at our members and didn't find him so i sent him a message similar to yours
it ticks me off when people do that.  they should fight to the top just like everyone else. i didn't get to where i am because someone sent me resorces.

i just realized or planets are a ways appart which means he didn't just run across our names in a near by ss. he probally sent it to a bunch of top players. time he could have used advancing his account  :wink:

As far as I understood, he read on forums that we, as a clan, offer 'Jumpstart to new players', he misunderstood the concept and didn't understand that it applies to OUR new members and not just to everybody

I have never experienced something like that in the Spanish Ogame. But I'm sure that I wouldn't have been so polite  :evil:

This is something Call got recently:

11-05 12:30:31 Jonathan [2:232:5] No subject

I've just started playing this game and on the forum they said I should ask if people can send me some resources so I could get started off, well here goes. Could you please send me something so I can start building up and playing properly?  I promise to repay you with extra in a few days once I get a fleet of my own

Regards.

Jon

what did happen to the "jumpstart" anyway i didn't get anything

[M A F I A]

Jumpstart's meant for players with 0 points or that are very new to the game, anyway if you need something in particular there's always trading with clanmates.
