Early, mid, to end game decision-making guide or a manual of some sort of eliminating not nice to be around people and not beneficial to do things for those players whom have reached the beginning of realization that this server is a marathon game not a sprint, that this server is here to stay and will outlast many if most official servers out there, and that the server is the best. And because of all these things, you realized that being good and ''smart'' by aligning yourself with the raison d'etre of this server will have better payoff than short term predatory behaviors and cheap thrills. As Sun Tzu once said, "Those who plan extensively before a battle are likely to win; those who plan only a little are likely to lose." and such I hope with this guide it would be easier to sort out what behaviors and what kind of people that you interact with will or will not help you reaching your long term goals and to '''avoid the trap of: Everyone else is doing it = Good'''. It is simply not, because everyone has different goals in mind and most of the top affluent people of the server hides what exactly their cashflow producing methods are. What matters the most is your own situational awareness, adaptability, and integrated understanding about all these to plan ahead and ultimately benefits just by positional advantage and having the correct latent capability. | Early, mid, to end game decision-making guide or a manual of some sort of eliminating not nice to be around people and not beneficial to do things for those players whom have reached the beginning of realization that this server is a marathon game not a sprint, that this server is here to stay and will outlast many if most official servers out there, and that the server is the best.

Utilizing the major principles of plausible deniability, this guide is purposely made to be vague, intuitive/generalizing, and not-offending-as-possible as I do not provide exact ''namedrop'' and detailed plans/routine/action/judgment of which why some people or decision might or might not work as well for mine or your in-game goals and interests may it be socially, financially, or of any other aspects, and for that case you should not find me or anyone else to gossip about the types of people mentioned within this guide, and there is no exception to this; just keep things to yourself and be non-toxic and be as introspective as possible and think of these all as educational/fictional parables and of self improvement focused. You are to be conditioned into a state akin to freely swimming in the blue ocean, and is not trapped as a turtle in a well. For this guide to work, you are assumed to have already know and/or at some point at least once have a quality interaction with everyone that often shows up on #trade channel, every GM except Muh (because he is busy don't disturb him), every EM and Mods, every major Guild Leaders, top 20 zeny rankers, top contributors and build/item testers, and guide writers of the past, present, and the future. If you cannot do those all yet because you are very new or having shy personality like me, at least try to be familiar with their names and roughly try to remember or record what they said to understand them better even without so much active interactions from your side. Other important thing is that you have traded quite often (around 20 trades a week with different people or 50 buyings from vending and/or successful vending sells) of important commodities/current meta related items and interacted with people on #global, #trade, and various jobs #channels in MuhRO discord, and at one point have checked prices of commodities and valuable end game equips and MVP cards on your handphone when you were away touching grass far from your computer (because those crazy good deals could just pop out of nowhere amirite). | Utilizing the major principles of plausible deniability, this guide is purposely made to be vague, intuitive/generalizing, and not-offending-as-possible as I do not provide exact ''namedrop'' and detailed plans/routine/action/judgment of which why some people or decision might or might not work as well for mine or your in-game goals and interests may it be socially, financially, or of any other aspects, and for that case you should not find me or anyone else to gossip about the types of people mentioned within this guide, and there is no exception to this; just keep things to yourself and be non-toxic and be as introspective as possible and think of these all as educational/fictional parables and of self improvement focused. | ||

While hopefully able to simplify and covers the most basics of basics of strategic planning, one thing to state about the scope of this '''Pragmatic Guide''' is its limitation: that we are not putting '''fun''' any weight as factor in our decision making and so this guide will disregard those funsies in the planning, because it will require far more complex calculations and considerations, of which I think is pointless to ponder upon (just do it when u want to have fun and break the plans). Also lastly you are required to have the drive and tenacity to '''farm/grind and work hard and honest, and not making predatory behavior your main modus operandi''' (this is a warning). | While hopefully able to simplify and covers the most basics of basics of strategic planning, one thing to state about the scope of this '''Pragmatic Guide''' is its limitation: that we are not putting '''fun''' any weight as factor in our decision making and so this guide will disregard those funsies in the planning, because it will require far more complex calculations and considerations, of which I think is pointless to ponder upon (just do it when u want to have fun and break the plans).
