My job is to help you get oriented into WorldForge and join our Team. A developer is most likely to follow through on an idea he thought up himself. A developer who is ignored most likely will disappear. Most people are looking for acceptance, appreciation, and learning. Most people on the project are doing things they did not know how to do when they first joined.
Humans are able to adapt and learn.
The youngest humans learn at the fastest rate. People prefer investing time in something that will succeed. There are lots of fish in the sea, and the ones that swim into your net of their own will are the easiest to catch. When you build things for pay it is called Work. No one wants to do hobbies that are not fun.
