I think I've pretty much established I no longer give a shit about my ourWorld gaming life anymore, or how the new generation perceives me. Trust me, when you don't give a shit, people notice.
There's a certain badass swag about you. LOL. Ever since I stopped giving a crap, no one approached me anymore, nor did I have any dumb arguments with anyone. This leads me to believe people are scared of bums, either that or people perceive me as someone who kills rainbows, donkeys, and unicorns.
Because I don't care about how people perceive me anymore ,I decided to do an experiment.
A LOT OF SR's AGAINST NO/LITTLE SR's
Brace yourself! This is going to change your view on rich people and perception of your island life, possibly :D Then you must credit all of this under my name, because I've never been a hipster of a mainstream ourworld Movement, and I'll like to be one before I quit forever.
Let's start with a lot of SR's since it's basically programmed in players' minds that it's the best thing ever!!!
SR's Pros-
Even I have to admit, there are a lot of good things that come with SR's. Maybe I shouldn't say SR's but
desirable SR's, because a lot of my stuff are SR's but they're only worth around .5 mill. -_- FML,
The economy fucked me really really hard
The pros to having a lot of SR's are the following: you get richer, and you have some sort of stance in society, plus for some reason along with a lot of SR's you automatically get a group of friends with a lot of SR's
It's like they come in a package when you shop at the marketplace or something.
Please tell me I'm wrong, because I'm pretty sure I am not.
Of course there is a rational explanation for this, but it is too boring, long and complicated, but I shall try my best: because rich people have seen you on the marketplace so many times, because rich people have seen you at trading events so many times, because rich people and you have probably bonded by complaining about cheapskates and scammers at boardwalk/trading events so many times, because a rich person is probably known by another rich person by the reasons above and now two rich people are bonding because they realize that they can make profits from each other, because a rich person knows a rich person and is involved in some sort of rich person drama
OurWorld deserves its own subject of sociology and psychology.
SR's Cons-
Not saying all rich people are fake, but I have met some pretty fake ass rich people! Some, okay! No need to get so offended! I have also met a lot of nice, rich people, but you'll probably still choose to concentrate on the above statement instead of this one.
Some rich people love you for your money, and your friendship only goes as deep as your money goes. (Meaning if you have a lot of money, you're friendship will probably go deep deep, but if you have no money, you're friendship will probably only ripple the waters of friendship.) Hey! Not criticizing this friendship at all, because it actually works for some people! :D (Until they quit and come back and realize there is no one still there for them because the MP screwed up the value on their items.)
Other rich people will probably only add you so they can annoy about trading you. Then you have to decide if you want to add them, or if you want to leave their request there, or if you want to reject it (root to rich people drama).
I suppose if you see a person who has LARGE potential becoming a rich person, you could add them, just so you can say you knew the rich person before he/she became rich later on. Maybe you want to struck a good deal.
My opinion is: If the person is not worth it, do not add him/her.
Meaning, do not think with your black heart where all the greed lies, but think with your pink heart :D
Because once you get added, there is no turning back. I have been annoyed multiple times by rich people, and try to be nice. However, I have a strong belief that either the rich people are dumb, or they just think they are the shit to the point that they don't care about your rejections, but continue to ask you anyway.
If you really want to drill the message into his/her mind, then decline the request. I can guarentee you that rich person will not bother you again if you are better than him/her. However, there might be drama involved once they realized that they have connections to you which leads to your second option:
Leave the request there! They won't get offended because eventually if it's left long enough they would have forgotten all about you, or the request will disappear anyway, but the con to this method is awkwardness when you see that person again and they realize LOL Why am I laughing, this is not a laughable matter.
No/Little SR's Pros-
I can not emphasize on this pro anymore:
No one will bother you! :D
This pro is so awesome, because repeating the same thing over and over again can get pretty irritating. When you are dress down, NO ONE BOTHERS YOU!!! It's like instead of Liam Payne walking out as LIAM PAYNE, he dresses in tattered pants, holey sweatshirts,sunglasses, and gets a bald cap, and people suspect almost nothing!!
And you get to complain about ourworld (MP) and everyone will give their genuine opinion. (My opinion is that it sucks.)
With rich people (a lot of them) they are more touchy on the subject! WTF LIKE WHY SO TOUCHY!
If you go into a room full of rich people and say the economy sucks, there will be silence and following insults, and more silents, and people will either agree with you horribly, or disagree with you horribly. It gets really ugly.
Ex scenario.
You: I HATE THE MP THE MP SUCKS!!!!!!!
Rich person 1: *silence*
Rich person 2: *silence*
Rich person 3: *silence*
RP1: You suck (I imagine people who are like this talking in a Lord Voldemort voice.)
RP2: It's because you're a noob, and have only three SR's that you wear all the time, that you will complain about such a thing. (Imagine Sir Malfoy voice talking.)
RP3: I agree with you, RP1 and RP2. If you don't like it, then why are you on here? Stop being a noob. The marketplace doesn't suck, you suck. (In comes Pettigrew)
RP1: See? Just because it doesn't work for you, doesn't mean it stinks. Where did you get your wings? Noob R Us? Oh, look at me, I have Crystal Flake Wings! I am so cool!
RP2: *adds another insult*
RP3: *mumbles an insult*
However, on the Boardwalk or whatever, you can complain and rant to your heart's content. I like to compare this whole thing as rich people=congress, boardwalk=house/road/restaurant.
Little/No SR's Cons-
People will bully you and you will get booted from trading events. Therefore, you have to advert to trickery to get in (bribes or have a rich friend who will protect you.) But that is probably a good thing, not the bullying part, but the trading events part, because you probably don't want to get too into this game anyway after reading my blog posts.
I'm going to conclude this post with Eccentric Rich People
because there is such a thing now
Eccentric rich people are people who are rich to the point that they want to dress "normal." However, from their swaggour, you could tell that they are rich.
It's like Mark Zuckerberg has so much money, but why does he prefer to dress like this
See! Like shoes that I could afford! It is of course dumb to say that Mark Zuckerberg has no designer clothing, or materialistic items, because there is a 99.9% chance that he does
But there is a level of richness that you're rich to the point that you dress poor, but the things you buy are still rich, or not, depending on your rich status. All so confusing, I had a friend explain it to me a few months back, and realized how much it applied. Also read a book Blue Bloods and realized how much it applies.
A lot of mega rich people on there too dress up normal w. swag, but there are also a lot who chooses to dress up in their SR's too!
Personally, I prefer both SRs and no SRs because it does get a little too much. I am not saying that all SR's are bad, because you earned them, so keep it, wear it! SHOW IT TO EVERYONE! I do not care ,but this is just my opinion.
If you are wondering who the fuck am I to give out my opinion, read the name of your url and decide whose site you're on before you start asking such dumb questions in the first place.
