(^_^)<\/p>\n<p>But&#8230; Okay, everyone is there. \u00a0And lots of people are shouting and yelling into public chat things they want to buy, sell, or services to offer. \u00a0Including this thing called Leeching. \u00a0So, for g100 per hour&#8230; Or was it g100k? .. anyway, for an hourly fee high level players will take you to a high level spot and include you in a party where all you really have to do is stay alive. \u00a0They&#8217;ll fight the fight and you&#8217;ll get epic experience points.
