Hi!

this ismy only character on the server -- go ahead, check.

This fellow archival, is standing and /shouting druid ports for donations at SF ramp in Overthere.

He had been doing this for at least 4 hours, but that is neither here nor there.

I see him /shouting his services, I say, need aport to west commons.

I tip him 9p.

His response: "eeew"

He complained. he said most people tip him 20p - 100p.

This is my only character. I have maybe 600p to my name. He is /shouting in a zone for ports for donations. I give him what, to me, is a fair tip.

Archival complains. Bitches. Whines.

Hey Archival! Suck me. Hard.

Would you have tipped him more if he had?

I woulda said "hey I need a port to WC. I only have 9pp to spare, is that ok?" 9pp is low, but whatta dick for saying "ewwww". Donation is a donation, if he wanted more he shoulda said his price in the /shout

If you're asking for "donations," that means that you will port for free, should a donation not be offered. To then turn up your nose at a donation, when that is what you asked for, is absurdly caddish. My name is Hasbinbad, and I support this RnF post.

Tough situation, because not many people will /shout or /ooc "Porting for plat, pay me and I'll take you where you need to go" Most people opt to go with the more polite "Porting for donations" and expect people to have the integrity to respect the fact that the porter is saving you probably atleast a half hour worth of your time (maybe more depending on the situation.)

I stopped accepting plat for ports once I hit lvl 60 because most times, people just don't respect the fact that you're taking time out of your play session to save them time in their's. When you don't expect anything in return to begin with, you'll be less disappointed in the end when you get jack shit from some little in-grate. I usually only charge TMO members for ports anyway (still rarely accept plat from anyone though) as kind of a running joke, hey gotta take some of that plat they get from all those dragon pixels they sell!

9pp is only dick if you're a high level and/or decked out in a Fungi and shit.

If you're poor, then that's pretty legit in my book.

Hello i will port you for free everytime i am not doing something in game, lately all i do is swoon over fountree's diablo2 experience and how he has 4 vp'd geared chars which i hear all the time from him! Please look me up in game and i will take you where you want to go, with a smile on my face

Tassle ported me for free the other day.

I wanted to go to Tox so I told him to port me to EJ unfortunatly he ported me to EJ.

"Porting for $$$$$$$"

He said in group its like 50pp for a port outa OT. I gave em 100pp. Yall knew the deal b4 u get into his group. Pay up or GTFO outa his group. He was lookin for coin, and u knew it.

Sure shit man here it is, same dude and everything. Where's the guy who gave em spears? He didn't have any plat but he had selling stuff for 10pp each.

I don't like the word donations. I cringe everytime I see someone advertise with it when it's fairly obvious you are trying to provide a service to be paid. Why not be honest with customers and say flat out that you looking for cash. I play a Druid. I don't advertise ports, yet I will port anyone who asks if I'm not cureently engaged. I've temp-left groups to help people out. I don't expect any cash but I *never* hit the cancel button. People will pay for customer satisfaction without your untruthful advertisements.

This is a horrible idea. I don't want all the trolls' secondary, tertiary, etc. accounts shitting up the other forums because they need to get to 50 posts before they can return to RNF while their main account is banned. Think of it this way, Harrison goes through 1-2 accounts per month, would you want him to have to post 50-100 things per month before he could be contained within RNF again (outside of mods moving all his posts back to RNF manually)?

I tend to /ooc Porting for bribes. When I'm in the mood to get a couple 20p tips before I get bored and start AFK staring at a wall again.

If you've managed to actually make considerable money with a druid, I'm impressed. Luckily for me, I just enjoy the class instead seeing it as (bad) cash generator.

He kind of already does this anyway.

Did he tone it down? Used to be a new account every couple of days.

it would make the frequency with which he could make new accounts much lower.

When I say donations I mean donations. If I don't get anything I'm cool with that. If people want to give me a tip because of the amount of time I'm saving them, then great. I've gotten donations of 30gp before and donations of 300pp before. I never know what I'm getting (or if I'm getting anything at all) until the trade window opens. So I feel pretty justified using the word "donations". Even if I'm excited if I get that big donation from someone with a lot of plat, I'm not disappointed if I don't get it.

Hey Archival! Suck me. Hard.

You don't NEED a port. There are boats. If you'd like to save your time, you should tip appropriately. I feel absolutely no obligation to spend one second of my time to port you because YOU want to save YOUR time.

That being said, I am often generous with my time to port people in frustrating situations to encourage them to move past it and continue to enjoy the game. When I donate MY time, it's on MY conditions.

You expecting someone to be generous to you because you are playing the same game is presumptuous.

9p doesn't sound like much...its not. The problem op has is that the druid was shouting ports for Donation, there was no minimum 50p donation simply for donations. For a new character 9p can be a lot when your scrimping and saving for that one piece of gear you want.

If the druid didnt want to port for 9p he could've said so, instead of spitting in this guys face...

Wow, yer kinda bitchy.

To people expecting me to port them around the game, yes.

If the OP didn't have 20pp to offer as a decent porting tip, they could have taken the boat.

I'm pretty sure the OP received the port, and the druid told him what he thought of the tip after the port. Then...the OP decided those typed words were enough to warrant a post in flames.

If the druid wanted a "decent porting tip" Hed shout Ports 20p min donation.

but that would make him sound like an asshole in public, where belittling a noob in tells after the fact makes him a big man!

I am wondering what part of "he was /shouting ports for donations for hours in OT" was unclear to you.

Illiteracy is a bitch. But, the GED is within yer reach, I can tell. You just need to take your head out of your ass. Trust me, Lyra, you *can* learn to read! But yes, it will require you to remove that head from up your ass. You can do it Lyra. We are all pulling for you.

Here is his shout out of my logs:

See, you still are not seeing it, and you are just making this worse. You did not name a price. And I am serious. Check my character. This is it. I tipped you 1/24th of what I had on me. I have 300ish in bank.

I challenge anyone here to say Iam cheep. I always tip ~10p for ports.

Sorry Lyra/Archival if that makes you feel violated. But I will tell you what. When I get richer, look me up. I will take care of you within reason.

Why? Because Sadre is a player.
