Those spamming kiddos are mad.
But to be honest, I asked once too, if someone would level me from 22 to 35. I just don't got massive time like others to play. But such guys who spam the whole chat in all chans -> ignore.
Nothing bad about asking, but more than twice (and even those 2 should be away about 30 minutes ^^) is to be killed :>

But you're assuming that just because someone is a higher level that they have massive amounts of time to play and therefore have plenty of time to play a game for someone else as well (and even if they do have time to play, that's their time to play their characters). There's not a race to the "finish" (level 100), so it really is okay if you can't play that often and only make to here or there every time you play; in fact, there are many who believe you'll then take the time to really enjoy the game. As for myself, I don't pay to play just to play for someone else. That's not to say that I haven't helped or won't help in the future, but incessant asking for powerleveling is annoying and almost guarantees that I won't be helping the person asking. Instead I'll pick groups to help that never asked for someone higher to help, or those of whom I know already. But I'm sorry, I don't think there's ever even a "one time" that's appropriate to ask if you don't know the person.

I just got asked for the first time last night! A little level 3 ranger asked me when I was standing at the bank in Townsend. I gave myself a once over to make sure that I didn't magically appear to be a higher level than the 40 I am and was shocked. Before I could reply with a helpful "Go kill wolves in the forest" the person already left.

Agreed. I have been benched from the game for the past three months (work stuff). When this mission is over, I will start up once again. There is no way I would ask or even want to be power leveled to make up for lost time. Until such a time, you are all stuck with me mouthing off on the forums.

I can't understand power levellers. If you do that, there is no enjoyment in playing the game. I've played WoW, GuildWars, and City Of Heroes, and never once have I ever asked "plvlplz?". I tend to be strictly a solo player anyways so that may have something to do with it. I don't mind grouping with other people, but I prefer the excitement of progressing normally and making sure I win every fight, because there is no one to help me and if I die, it's my own fault.

I place power levellers in the same category as WoW gold sellers. Useless and potentially ruins the game for everyone else.

It's interesting, though... all the recent requests for pleving have been very polite and darned near pleasant. They even apologized for asking. Almost made me want to help them. Almost.

You must resist! Next thing you know they'll be politely offering you some great tasting purple Kool-Aid to drink.

I agree lvling is easy, but what really ticks me off is when higher lvls write " Power lvling for rbs 1 rb 1 lvl " Man powerlvling is mean't to be free ...

I would rather not see any bargaining for levels, etc., but if you're going to power level someone you don't know, you might as well get something out of it.

I mean, what it sounds like you're saying is that it's ok for a lowbie to leech off of someone for experience, but to have to pay for that service is "just wrong"...

I agree it's against all morals but they're actually not braking any rules. If anyone is so stupid that they wanna give away RB's for leveling, it's purely up to them.

When I see this, even though I don't PL, it makes me wanna say "Will power level for free".

I'll put this in as simple of a way as I can.

You're not going to get any respect in this game by begging and having someone fight your fights for you.

Sure, you may find someone to pull you all the way to 100, but what then?

If you don't put in the time to learn the game, you won't have the skills you need to do anything but power level people because you can't fight.

Grind it out and earn some respect.
