    Pay It Forward, 2015 Frostfell Edition

    When: Sunday, January 4, 2015

    Where: Isle of Mara

    Details: Is your storage full of stuff rotting away and taking up space? Do you want to use your crafting skills for more than writs and status grinds? Well, empty your banks and polish up your tradeskill tools! It is time once again for Pay It Forward!

    What is Pay it Forward?
    Pay It Forward is an opportunity to help fellow players out and spread positive energy across the server.

    Originally started and written by Jayne/Fille of the Freeport server wrote:What is Pay it Forward, you ask? Well it's a day when adventurers and crafters come together to donate crafted goods, items rotting away in your bank, plat, rares, masters ... you name it ... to young adventurers, asking only that they perform some random good deed for a complete stranger in return.

    We have done this several times before and everyone has a blast!!

    Why Isle of Mara?
    It has all the stuff we need! Tradeskilling tables, fuel merchants, bank access! It is also neutral and the tradeskilling area is located in a spot free from potential aggro.

    Who do we give stuff away to?
    With the changes in the level cap, far speedier level progression, and the introduction of Heroic Characters we have lifted the level cap on this event. Anyone in need, come on out regardless of level. If you need gear or a crafted quest update, come on out! Your only obligation will be to show the same generosity and kindness to someone else in need!!

    What do we need?
    CRAFTERS!! Polish up your tradeskill tools and warm up your tables! We need crafters willing to come to Mara and spend a few hours making items and passing them out. In light of the ability to mass produce, I would like to encourage people to be gentle as we only have so much storage space. Ultimately, it is better if you come on out and craft on the spot. If you genuinely cannot make the event, but want to donate, please contact Arquenniel or Tajar so we can coordinate that with you.

    A note on rares and rare items… Tradeskillers are not expected to donate their rares or rare items. This is truly the choice of the tradeskiller. If someone wants a rare item, they need to provide the rare or compensate the tradeskiller in coin or trade. Of course, if the tradeskiller wishes to utilize their stash of rares for someone that is his/her choice!

    VOLUNTEERS!! We have some people who cannot make the event, but want to be generous. They make their items ahead of time. So we need people to help pass items out.

    HERALDS!! We need people to bounce through the channels and zones to herald the event.

    GUILD LEADERS!! This is an awesome opportunity to represent your guild. Come with your colors flying as a group and find a spot to hand out your goodies and some information about your guild!

    DONORS!! Clean out your banks and come pass your stuff out. Again, I would like to encourage people to show up in person and hand their stuff out rather than fill up the storage spaces of the hosting guilds. If you genuinely cannot make the event, but want to donate, please contact Arquenniel or Tajar so we can coordinate that with you.

    If you are interested in helping out with this event, please contact Arquenniel via PM here, /tell in game, or in game mail.

    Greetings,

    This sounds like a fabulous event! Will it be running all day on Sunday, or should players plan on attending during a specific time frame? Also, what server is this being organized on?

    I'm looking forward to hearing more about this!
