Grrrrr...today was not fun in the KoL. Yesterday I made a Sauceror multi and got her to level 4, then applied to a great clan (I wanted to see how other clans were)...and got rejected!
Today, I joined in at newbie chat after reading all the nice stories about it, and I asked how to use an egg, and got a nasty, expletive-laden PM about it. Plus, I got the plague.
Then, I successfully joined a clan that had a nice ad in forums and immediately went about donating meat and goods to the stash, only to find out I couldn't remove anything (I was only going for one small part), even though I apparently have more karma than a lot of veteran members there. And those members have higher ranks than I do too.
And only AFTER all that, did I notice: NO MEAT TREE! They have millions in meat, and no meat tree. And I donated meat that I needed, too. So now I'm out meat and lots of neato goods, and stuck in a tree-less clan. Grrrrrr!
