I do however, wish there was some concrete way to repay them. I've even tried gifting them stuff from their wish-list that I only have 1 of, Speaking for myself, please don't. Think of the older players as grandparents and those starting as orphans. Grandad takes orpan out to a ball game and a nice meal. Orphan responds by giving his only stuffed toy. You are greatly touched by this but... What do you do? If you give back the toy you have rejected a heartfelt gift. And what will the kid give up the next time you give out of your abundance? Unless there is some emergency don't give away something that you need. Give out of abundance and if you never find a way to truly thank someone that's ok. Just grow up to be the type of person that helps the next orpan down the line. I'd rather establish a pay it forward legacy than get one more collection finished.
