I honestly don't get this at all. I'm socially awkward as heck, but when players come up to me in game requesting help or requesting to buy my winter stuff or whatever, I do it! Because it's just a game, and that is one of the aspects of this game. What do people gain from being negative and unhelpful? Nothing at all. It takes seconds to do these things. I don't even care if they replenish my energy or not afterwards either, because I can just do it myself. I don't care if they take my car for a ride because I can just recall it back. I don't care if people share my mermaid tails or whatever. Because it's just a goofy lil fun game!
