Dial A Bum

[dialabum]

I was apart of Dial A Port guild from the very beginning, and was removed by Afeni today for guild removing one of the MANY low level druids who don't really know how to play the game or even know the servers' rules for being an asshat.

So I just decided to let you know how it works. All day the kids in the guild gossip about who tips better than who, or what guild has the most asshats that "stiff" on donations (stiffing means like, 20p, NOT Happy with that ever). The guilds they tend to make wait are:

Veloci Shift
Dawn Believers
Azure Guard (wtf?)

There ARE blacklisted people with the dial a port regulars, especially with guild officers, that don't tip well enough. The members constantly try to pawn off lower level people who only have 5p or such, and will often start to clown them in guild chat. If you have more than two corpse runs in a day they will let the guild know as to make you wait, because they think you are pulling some kind of scam rofl.

Afeni (Tupakk) also multi boxes multiple Dial A Port druids at a time. I don't know how he hasn't been caught, but he's pretty open about it in officer chat in discord. He constantly badmouths 40+ who don't tip him at least 50p. "They get almost that on one mob at that level" type of stuff.

Be wary of this piece of trash guild, if you need a port make it your last destination. There are several other porting based guilds that have sprouted up recently and I'd say start suggesting them. They are powerhungry and greedy moneygrubbers who talk shit about you as they port you around place to place, because they think that makes them important. And yes I was one of them for years.

WE SAW THIS COMING YEARS AGO (http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=158884)

[maskedmelon]

I've never specifically sought out dial a port. I always just advertised my WTB and went with whomever responded. If I did t get any bites, I'd /tell someone my request /shrug.

[jakerees]

OMG What did Tupakk know and when did he know it?!

[Pokesan]

praise skarlorn for bumping this fantastic thread

DAP corrupt to the core

[SoekiWiz]

*shrug*

Talk shit/be a "money grubber"/whatever.

I'm not paying them to be nice or care, I'm paying them for a port, just like any other Wizard or Druid who happens to be around. They're just easier to find on who all.

Who cares what goes on in guildchat? GUISE THEY DONT WANNA PORT PEOPLE WHO DON'T TIP WELL ZOMG! Let's say you're a hardcore neckbeard and you order Domino's 3-4 times a day and you tip the guy like shit. You think that guy's gonna care about your pizza getting tossed around or being last on the route?

Sounds like you're salty for being kicked. Gonna have to find a new way to make all the platinumz

[kotton05]

It's better to just farm with a group than grind pp porting imo anyways

not surprised to learn tupakk is a multi boxing cheater, guy is eq scum and forum scum

Also id wager that 90%+ isn't "talking shit" and is genuinely really nice.

LMAO , This Kid...

Yes I kick him

Yes He abused powers he wasn't allowed to

Yes we talk alot about money in GC , thats our business

As Far as Boxing LMAO thats to funny.

Telperon you are toxic and I feel sorry for you. Please Seek some RL help and not dive into an MMO with your problems.

Have a Nice Day

is it wrong to leave a comment that says "Drugs" ? Or is that only allowed on Red forum?

i find the lack of proof in his tinfoil hat disturbing, give us logs or ss otherwise afeni's statment weighs just as much as yours

did you use the pie tin? tell us about that

Starting at the top of the log. 3rd line down sounds about right.

[NecroP99]

This may be the nerdiest EQ thread of the year - grats on both being psychos

[Tupakk]

That threw me off as well lol. IDK what Q was doing with that pie tin but he still didnt tell me even after getting kicked and me saving him.

[Tupakk]

This may be the nerdiest EQ thread of the year - grats on both being psychos

All I did was resolve the issue between Quilar and Telperon.



He is just mad cause he didnt like the result of getting kicked after he went on a kicking spree of his own.


Move to Resolved!!

[dafier]

He was probably returning the Pie Tin in order to not get reported for stealing guild property. BDA does that. If you leave, you need to either give your stuff back to Chest or destroy all your items.

Hence why I still have my spell Summon: Orb. I still have the tag.

[dafier]

OH NO! I can't edit. I'm in trouble now.... :(

[kotton05]

Now the real mystery is the pie tin clean? Is it's where abouts known? I'm hungry

[Pokesan]

i sure hope you didnt use that pie tin to make a PIZZA!!

They should be pissed if someone doesn't tip a lot.... They have a time investment. If you're poor, there's public transportation via boats and your feet.

I refuse all CR, all new players with less than 50p and anyone I feel like refusing to port because my time is valuable to me.

If you're so angry about it, why don't you make a socialist guild called <John Maynard Keynes> where you port for free.

[maskedmelon]

you should port me for 'free' because I am an objectively good person and pay in gratuitous smiles ^^

[indiscriminate_hater]

Typical DaP

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Surprise surprise! A guild whose main focus is greed is greedy and corrupt, did not see this one coming!

But really, fuck DaP. Have encountered so many of their members in the field and they are mostly all idiots and seem to have very little knowledge of the game. Not surprising I suppose for people who waste their time porting when they could be making plat a lot faster through more traditional means. I believe you OP! Hopefully a GM looks into this shitbag boxing multiple toons.

[Priceline]

from those logs "...forbids arguing in OOC. Especially with your guild tag showing"

it boggles my mind how many DaP members don't understand you can't hide your tag from others in the same zone

Yep, one of these morons went anon and didn't respond right after I asked him for a port for a CR. Sure fooled me!

[maskedmelon]

my favorite porters are both halflings. They both always super friendly and never care what I pay them. They even indulge me in rp from time to time ^^

Sucks AG made the "list" I pay 100pp a port to wherever cuz I own a druid and know how much time it saves, but I usually go out of my way to find someone not in DAP because of things exactly like this =)

An interesting list of guilds put on front stage by the OP.

Ps. Never liked DaP.

I'm pretty positive this is fairly well known knowledge. Tupakk is a joke to everyone but his legion of porters tbh. He definitely does box too.

Great thread though regardless, I agree: Fuck DAP. I never use them for ports.

[NecroP99]

So no real defense to the Multi boxing allegations Tupak? Easy to dominate the market when you are advertising on 3 toons while porting on another. I think we have all seen the "advertisers" for DAP have we not?

Warlord Sirken, look into this scums account history, may Wu'Tang protect you

Nope

Yes

You prolly have

And Yes Sirken come play in RNF :)

[Tpar]

<shrug> I have never had a bad experience with Dial a Port, although I admit that I am not a member, nor have I ever been a member of their guild. A guild is entitled to have whatever rules they want. I suspect many of the guilds on the server occasionally talk about other players and/or guilds, and probably not in ways they would want broadcast over OOC. What happens in a guild's guild chat is the business of that guild and its officers, no one else.

Its the OP's right to complain here... that's what this forum is for. Its also Tupakk's right to defend himself. Enough with bashing both sides, and get on with killing pixels.

Why would someone box multiple porting toons at one time? That's like eating cereal with a fork, dumb.

Boxing 6 Toons with 10 ports in queue = 600 ports every 15mins or so 600 * 50 = 3000 every 15 mins. 12k an hour. My best is 16.2k an hour....

[Bruno]

I had an alt in DaP when I played. There was a no fly list. Guild composed of a bunch a whiney man children. Was tagged merely out of convenience and never signed up for the forums. Porting is serious business.

I'd believe that the people with druids could potentially be more likely the box offenders.

is this what people on blue worry about

when you get a port from someone you don't know on red its 50/50 theres a gank squad waiting at the port in.

why do people play blue?

it tru, butt

[Baler]

Sent a tell to a DaP member offering 100p to go to Wakening Land.
They said ok but they had a few ports before me. I wait for 15-20 minutes... They finally show up and port me.
I end up in skyfire mountains and they're not online or in sight, I get killed by a pack of mobs.

OP make your own port guild and stay away from this guy. Afeni is the sole person I have on /ignore on P99. It takes a special kind of sociopath to hate on randoms. My best guess he's still salty at Rustle in general about being guild kicked for being a ninja looter. But who knows really.

This sounds highly hyperbolic, and you sound like an angry child that has just had your internet taken away.

If it was so awful etc., why start talking once you got kicked out of the guild? You probably loved the gossip and personally engaged in all of the bad mouthing of lowly tippers etc.

As for them talking poorly about people they had issues with, so what?

Anyone that provides any service as a job which is basically what DaP does in the game, vent and talk crap about their shitty customers. that's pretty normal.

This post is just sour grapes.

I'm honestly not surprised at any of this,thanks Obama. Inb4 can't blame Obama idiots,this shit was happening on his watch I seent it

I always pay between 10-25pp per port.
If thats not enough for Dial a Port, stop to /ooc "donations are accepted but not requied".
I am a poor bastard, and not even have 1 Tinkers Bag.

I gotta say, before I joined DaP I was always treated very well by the people that ported me around even as a not very well tipping newbie, as a member of DaP sure theres guys that complain about tips here and there but by and large its a group of really cool people some of the coolest people Ive met on here are in DaP. Also there being a list of people to be slow to is a load of bullshit lol, been in the guild for months and never seen that.

Given how easy it is to get into DaP. I'd imagine youd have you be a terrible player to get kicked out of dial port. I mean you'd have to be like really really bad...like not even good enough to join Kittens guild.. I suspect you will have a hard time getting re-guilded and your rep is now trashed. You may as well reroll bud cause if I were a guild officer or leader I wouldn't invite you to my guild...

This has happened to me in the past. I was even on my one alt that is a bit twinked but had no cash. Got harrassed by the proter that i should be tipping, dropped a ton of silver on him cause thats all I had and still they said they black listed me. Ended up no longer sending them tells unless there was absolutely no other choice.

[Crust]

VS members know to tip and tip well when using DAP. That being said its people that tip badly, not guilds...

Frankly when i have to explain that i /split 100 to your members, perhaps your members are not as knowledgeable about the druid class or even EQ as you might hope.

Off the top of my head at least 5 DAP druids have sent a tell after porting me and i had to make them look for my /split.

I implore you to remind your members that their service is voluntary and no one is forcing them to port people for plat.

TL;DR
Educate your taxi drivers first, for that is something you can control.

[Tupakk]

Yeah, splitting does sometimes fall through the cracks. I'll bring that up st our next guild meeting.

Thanks for letting me know.

[Phenyo]

Ive used DAP in the past and quite a few of them seem to get upset that you're contacting them for their service or will ask for your location and not follow up or reply to tells, even if they are just afking at WC.

DAP offers no benefit or convenience over pming random solo players. More often than not a solo druid i contact and tip well is friendly and appreciative versus DAP who almost always seem entitled and rude, as if you're taking up their time or something (????).

DAP is almost always a last resort, like a dodgy kebab shop when your favorite place is closed.

[AgentEpilot]

even if they are just afking at WC.


Holy shit you mean they don't reply to you if they're afk!? THE NERVE.

Afeni how can you explain this terrible service.

will ask for your location and not follow up or reply to tells, even if they are afking at WC

You can get this from people not in DaP.

I'm sorry you had 1 bad experience but I'm gonna say thing nicely. Shit happens. If someone drops the ball well that's why we have many balls so to speak.

If you want a bit of insight on what we are doing make a Druid join us and be the only one or three on during peak or hell off peak. You can see first hand what it is like then maybe you might change your attitude towards what we do.

[Baler]

I know for a fact that certain guilds have setup contracts with DaP in the past. For exampling killing wuoshi...

I know DaP won't admit these goings on and perhaps it's not the entire guild. But what we see day to day is just the surface. It's all political. :(

[Triiz]

Off the top of my head at least 5 DAP druids have sent a tell after porting me and i had to make them look for my /split.


Worth pointing out it's highly likely a lot of people have /splits set to go into a spam chat, due to the amount of spam that can be generated from splits especially in active groups.

I always use /split to tip DAP for my ports and due to the fact i say "/g thanks, split the tip" before I run off, I've never had one ask me why I didn't tip. I wouldn't take a taxi and leave a $20 on the back seat without saying anything before I jump out and expect the driver to notice.

[Dollar]

I don't think people realize just how high in demand ports are on this server. There is a load of platinum and people want to get from one place or another as fast as possible and not take th 30 minute scenic route. When you have anon off in DAP you literally get more tells than can be managed sometimes. It can be extremely overwhelming and tells can get lost in the madness. It is very much a job, sure it can be fun and rewarding play wise or just by helping a lower level get somewhere they otherwise couldn't, but it isn't like we are getting showered in free platinum for doing nothing. We deal with a lot of whiny shit you wouldn't believe if say, I tell someone I won't run to seb to pick them up and instead ask them to go to a Druid ring or evac if they want a pickup. The entitlement is strong. I haven't played a few months, but guild chat is pretty much overwhelmingly positive except for the few jerks we have to interact with. There are rotten apples everywhere, and occasionally people are just entitled to a bad day. Just my two cents

Food for Thought. (sorry Tupakk)

[Dollar]

Again you seem to be sour and I'm sure you have your reasons. In response earlier to whomever was referring to DAP turning on anon as soon as a car is asked for; I have forgotten to turn on anon when I need a break from porting or I have a huge list or I need to ago for 10 minutes or a hundred other legit reasons.. other than just not wanting to assist someone on a cr. Realistically we get pms constantly so chances of me needing to go afk and you sending a message right before I turn anon on is very possible and happens more than you know. Not saying this is what has happened to you or other people but this is not a far fetched scenario by any means.
You are right in the fact there are a lot of capable porters and if you are broadcasting for ports in WC or just have anon off in ring zone than you will get requests for ports. I am saying there is more than enough demand to keep hard working porters busy during peak hours whether you are in DAP or not. There is no monopoly on porting on this server. Also if the majority of players do try for DAP first, that basically tells you that you are in the minorty of DAP haters. I'm not bias here. Just giving you my honest experiences as a DAP porter who doesn't play regularly.

[Dollar]

Also in me sayin I am not bias. I prefer to think I am not biased, I really have no connection or affiliation other than wearing the tag for porting. Which honestly if you are porting to make plat, that's really just the smart thing to do if it helps you advertise and keeps ya busy unless you have some type of grudge, and if so that's perfectly understandable also.

[chadtwoke]

drugs

[Myth]

I don't dismiss that the claims of the OP aren't true, but a blanket statement against DAP because of a small minority is similar to generalizing the P99 community as 'toxic' due to the actions of a minority of players which we all know is not true.

I've been in Dial a Port for a long time. Granted, I don't play much, but when I do the guild is always very friendly and accommodating. I am not aware of a blacklist, or any sort of shenanigans. Many of my guildies genuinely enjoy porting other players. Tips are nice but are never required. The original intention of the guild was to make it EASY for the community to find a port. A rule of "CRs are always free" was in place when I joined as was free newbie transports. We've saved hundreds of erudites from the terrors of Tox forest and brought them in touch with the rest of the world. I've seen guildies answer the "call of qeynos" or "call of everfrost" numerous times to pickup a newbie, port them, run them to a town, and bind them so they could play with a friend. I expect nothing but a thank you and hope that the experience I provided was enough to set the good natured tone of the community for a new player.

As far as /anon goes... personally I sometimes get slammed with tells and can't keep up. If I don't respond and toss up /anon it's not because I'm purposely being an asshole, it's because I missed it and anon to stop the influx of new tells. I could do better, and strive to as I never want to leave a player hanging, but shit happens.

[maskedmelonpai]

it not rude to ignore peoples tells. it they own rudeness making them think it acceptable to foist they tells on you in first place.

The "/who all XXXX count" command isn't some sort of state secret. Druids are generally the most common class online at any given time of day. Wizards aren't very popular and usually sit in the bottom 4 or so.

I make very little use out of Dial-a-port. I might've used them twice in the past year, if even that. Sense of entitlement is right when folks act like ports-on-demand are somehow mandatory to even play the game (they aren't).

[Dollar]

Danth is spot on, but let's be honest about the % of people that play this game and would rather spend 30 minutes waiting for a port from BB To WC before attempting to ride the boat. These types of ports account for a lot of cr port requests. People are too impatient to even snag a bond near where they are actively grinding and when they die who feels entitled for that cr port?

[alexnoshinku]

<shrug> I have never had a bad experience with Dial a Port, although I admit that I am not a member, nor have I ever been a member of their guild. A guild is entitled to have whatever rules they want. I suspect many of the guilds on the server occasionally talk about other players and/or guilds, and probably not in ways they would want broadcast over OOC. What happens in a guild's guild chat is the business of that guild and its officers, no one else.

Its the OP's right to complain here... that's what this forum is for. Its also Tupakk's right to defend himself. Enough with bashing both sides, and get on with killing pixels.

Personally I've used DaP for years. Never ran across Tupakk or Afen but I have meet several nice players in that guild. I usually tip from 50pp-100pp depending on where I'm going and how much mana they will have to use on top of that I also give them mind buffs If I am on my <enchanter>. Half the time they either refuse my tip or they accept it and give me free port for the rest of that day/week. I've made countless friends from that guild that If I send a tell for a CR or a port they will come instantly to help for free. I'm sure there might be one or two bad apples in that guild but I have never happened across them. IF I ask for a port and they tell me I'm <this number in line> I usually ask another one if it is urgent. Never meet a rude porter or anything. I do let them know upfront if I don't have pp on me but I usually end up finding them later on and making up for that. It all depends on how you act towards them sometimes. Never had them tell me my tip was bad or port me to the wrong place and leave me. Even had one who helped me locate my corpse in BW and Skyfire when I died and asked for a CR port.

Plus a lot of the Druids in that guild will personally ask me for Mind buffs if I'm sitting in EC or at any druid rings and will offer free ports. Just depends on what type of person you are. I always get tells form them and vis versa.

DAP is awesome, even if they don't have some strict recruiting process for their guild. 99% of them are cool, a small minority are not.

Typically the bad ones leave or get booted pretty fast.

The guild provides a very useful service, and in return allows druids/wizards a way to make money helping others out. I don't see the big deal here.

Only complaints about DAP are from people enjoying the troll.

[alexnoshinku]

It's more like a druid adds me to friends knowing I am usually on and don't mind buffing him for free since I don't accept tips on my enchanter, even from DaP. It's all how you act towards them. I have several friends who are no longer in DaP that will still port me for free. I don't own a druid high enough to port yet nor to I own a wizard. So I'm not I DaP. I just like being nice, and in return they are nice to me.

[alexnoshinku]

Which leads onto something else with entitlement. On my cleric I used to feel valued, if I'm rezzing someone with my epic it was always an awesome thing for people - a quick 96 rez and they'd donate something, even if it was a few peridots it was always welcomed.

Nowadays if you're not /anon people expect a free rez if you're in the zone they died in. Often no tip, just a "thanks" and usually a "hey can i get a HP buff/AC/etc?"

Don't shit on the server's clerics... they're some of the nicest people. If you'd tip 50pp for a port, remember clerics can't earn anything outside of grouping. Keep a stack of peridots on you for port/rez tips, I do ;)

I always tip any cleric that rezzes me 100pp because most the time they go out of their way. If they are in zone spamming that they are rezzing I'll tip 50pp since they are already there. People need to treat the clerics good too. Most of the time clerics will not accept tips or donations, but its kind if you offer then a tip (9/10 they will remember you and wont think twice on coming to rez you if you ask).

Afeni has got to be the worst leader of not only Dial A Port, but guild leader period on the server. Back when Supremacy was leader, people really liked DAP. They had a good reputation and had great customer feedback.

Fastforward to Afeni gaining leadership.

Three RNF threads have come to pass, all filled with shady and malicious details about dear Afeni... two being consistently on the front page of RNF! Not only is he unable to prove he's not a dirty boxing cunt, he berates anyone who criticizes his dying guild.

Multiple guilds have started not using DAP specifically. More and more freelance druids have started popping up, less DAP on the /who. Such a sad state of affairs.

Congratulations on ruining your guild, you stupid fuck. Swish would've done a better job at leading DAP, and it's a blue portbot guild.

[Lhancelot]

DaP is not perfect, but this guild brings great service to the server. I create a hotkey on every character no matter the class: /who all dial.

Clearly OP didn't meet the stringent guild requirements to remain a member, and now is resentful since being cast from DaP.

My advice to the OP is to join a new guild, learn from past transgressions and stop living in the angry past.

You are better than this, OP!

[dialabum]

DAP is full of nice people; I didn't say it was. Even though many have left, there is nothing wrong with the membership usually (though they invite any druid/wiz so obviously some wrong gets in) but the problem lies in leadership. Lots of hard times since Afeni got in charge. Not a coincidence. Wannabe raider and shitty guild leader.

it's probable that OP has a personality defect :cool: Funny, as you're in RNF on an emulator of an 18 year old Elf Sim. I don't think anyone here can talk about personality defects.

The candle flickered. The sound of a wolf and the wind howling could be heard by those inside the little shack. But only for just a moment. The sounds were quickly replaced by the sounds of a woman in labor struggling to push a baby out of her womb.

"That's good!" The dark-haired woman said as she stared at the void between the woman's legs. A gray-haired woman stood at the head of the bed alternately looking from the dark-haired woman to the blonde-haired woman lying on the bed and then back again. She lovingly stroked her daughter's head.

"Now rest and push again." The dark-haired woman commanded the blonde. The exhausted woman glanced over at her mother. Her mother nodded in encouragement. The blonde-woman did not feel like she had the strength to continue but trusted in her mother. She pushed a final time with her last ounce of strength.

"Here's the head!" The dark-haired woman yelled. She reached down and several seconds later held up a little boy. He was covered in blood and fluid but otherwise he looked to be a healthy child.

The dark-haired woman hastily wiped the baby with a rag and then placed him into the outstretched hands of his mother. The blonde-haired woman looked lovingly down at her new babe and began to weep for joy. "Well? What is his name?" The gray-haired woman asked her daughter excitedly. The young mother thought for just a moment. "Afeni. His name is Afeni." The gray-haired woman smiled in delight. "Yes! That is a strong, powerful name. I have no doubt that he will grow into a strong, powerful man."

The new mother's content smile suddenly contorted in a rictus of pain. Fearing that she might drop the baby, she quickly passed the baby off to his grandmother. "What's happening?!?!?" She squealed in terror at her midwife.

The dark-haired woman walked back around to the foot of the bed to look between the young mother's outspread legs. "Oh my!" She exclaimed in surprise. "There's another baby! You must push, my dear!"

The blonde-haired woman found the strength within her and pushed. This time the baby slid out easily and into the midwife’s waiting hands. The dark-haired woman's look of surprise and excitement quickly changed to one of horror and perhaps even terror. She held up the baby for all to see.

The baby was scrawny and gangly. His red eyes were wide and staring and the most shocking thing about the baby was the fur. His enitre body was covered in a black fur.

The baby's mother took one look at him and exclaimed, "Take him away! I don't want him. I don't want to see him." The three women conferred and decided that the boy should be immediately dropped off at a nearby monastery and raised by the monks as an orphan.

The monks had no love for the odd little boy but were constrained by their religious vows to raise the child. The boy was teased and beaten and treated as a slave. Finally after several years, the monks saw fit to name him. And the name they gave him was "Dialabum".

Years later, the boy learned of his true family. As he heard about the love lavished upon his twin brother, he became jealous and angry. The jealousy and anger blossomed into a full scale homicidal hatred. It was then that he took to the forums to destroy his twin brother.

[Expediency]

yeah you're right, i didn't really try that hard. i definitely should have put more effort in it.

kind of like how your guild should have put more effort in being relevant before losing half of the members because they were tired of losing. :o

Lol this is bad. No wonder youre using an anon account, Id be embarassed too.

[Lhancelot]

The candle flickered. The sound of a wolf and the wind howling could be heard by those inside the little shack. But only for just a moment. The sounds were quickly replaced by the sounds of a woman in labor struggling to push a baby out of her womb.

"That's good!" The dark-haired woman said as she stared at the void between the woman's legs. A gray-haired woman stood at the head of the bed alternately looking from the dark-haired woman to the blonde-haired woman lying on the bed and then back again. She lovingly stroked her daughter's head.

"Now rest and push again." The dark-haired woman commanded the blonde. The exhausted woman glanced over at her mother. Her mother nodded in encouragement. The blonde-woman did not feel like she had the strength to continue but trusted in her mother. She pushed a final time with her last ounce of strength.

"Here's the head!" The dark-haired woman yelled. She reached down and several seconds later held up a little boy. He was covered in blood and fluid but otherwise he looked to be a healthy child.

The dark-haired woman hastily wiped the baby with a rag and then placed him into the outstretched hands of his mother. The blonde-haired woman looked lovingly down at her new babe and began to weep for joy. "Well? What is his name?" The gray-haired woman asked her daughter excitedly. The young mother thought for just a moment. "Afeni. His name is Afeni." The gray-haired woman smiled in delight. "Yes! That is a strong, powerful name. I have no doubt that he will grow into a strong, powerful man."

The new mother's content smile suddenly contorted in a rictus of pain. Fearing that she might drop the baby, she quickly passed the baby off to his grandmother. "What's happening?!?!?" She squealed in terror at her midwife.

lol no sir. I felt that Dialabum (and all of us) deserved a backstory to explain his behavior. So I wrote one. Make sure you look at the last two paragraphs.

[Naethyn]

I agree with the OP. Supremacy was an honorable leader who founded a great guild. Unfortunately, he left a person in charge who kill steals, bard trains in DL, and has zero interest in keeping a decent reputation. I've written to Supremacy about this, but he has left for good with no reply. DAP was a very strong guild, but it gets weaker and less relevant each day. I wish Supremacy had just closed the guild down instead.

[Rivera]

I agree as well, OP might be a bit nuts, but he brings up a good point: Afeni is a pretty shitty person and DAP has gotten smaller and worse since Supremacydru left.

[Lhancelot]

Ahhhh yes. This is a pretty good explanation of his intense hatred of Afeni. I am glad a logical explanation has been given.

It does seem Afeni has enjoyed many perks that the poor hairy little Dialabum has missed out on.

This story actually makes me feel pity and sadness for Dialabum. :(

Perhaps we should be more understanding and try to pick him up, not slam him down when he needs love and support.

[AzzarTheGod]

TRUTH REGULATORS!! MOUNT UP

Truth about Dial A Port with hard sources coming soon.

[schnickusaurus]

OP if you truly want revenge on DaP, then compete them out.
Their strength is everyone knows /who all dial , and there are not that many porter guilds to choose from?

You could easily get them by copying and making it better.
1) copy structure: /who all grab (you make Grab a Port guild with friends)
2) improve and get better: ensure always gate to SF ramp, provide fixed lowest fee say 30p, always have porters available
3) spread the word, let everyone realize /who all grab is the way to go

[skarlorn]

I love these threads man, DaP must be seriously shitting now

[Lhancelot]

In the past I was in DAP, and admittedly supremacydru was a pleasant presence in the guild. He was chill, talked freely to everyone, shared his RL enough to give you an idea what he was about, and basically gave the guild a feeling of hippy love friendliness.

I then took a long break from my DAP druid. It wasn't till I made a new wizard, got him up to 29 level and joined DAP that I found out he was MIA. I don't know Afeni that well, not enough to hate him but do notice the guild is not as warm as it was when Sup was there. This isn't a knock on Afeni, as it's just my perception and others may not share this.

Fact is, OP has raged about Afeni and DAP since he got booted from the guild. OP, your energies are wasted carrying grudges for years over a teleporting guild in a MMO booting you, as is your unbridled hate for the present GL of that teleporting guild.

You created a forum account strictly to vent your never ending hatred for DAP, and yes this is a "problem" as you say.

You got rustled, have never stopped being rustled, and to use a term I learned from a wise man on these forums, your hatred for DAP and Afeni is crazytown.

I think if people like you used all this boundless emotion and energy in a positive way instead of using it for venomous hatred not only would the world be a better place but you'd feel better too!

I feel pity for the truly unhappy and angst-ridden who have to attack and insult others all the time to try to make themselves feel better. This never solves anything, and hopefully one day OP finds some inner peace and drops this grudge of hatred for DAP and Afeni.

Can you feel the sincerity here? Wordier than a Charles Dickens novel.

[Mistle]

Envy is when you want something someone else has, jealousy is when you want to keep something from everyone else. OP is envious not jealous.

[maskedmelonpai]

Envy is when you want something someone else has, jealousy is when you want to keep something from everyone else. OP is envious not jealous.

you position at odds with multiple dictionaries and general usage though :c

and i mean that only in the exclusiveness of you argument. jealous can mean what you say it mean, but less often it used that way than the way it used by the phantom retitler.

i still love you though :3

[Lhancelot]

That's rich coming from you, friend. :cool:

I wrote those words from the heart about Supremacydru, and I hope all is well with him IRL. His presence is not only missed from DAP but from the game.

[loramin]

I remember when Supremacydru was in my guild ... Supremacy.

I feel old now.

What's this about Afeni multi-boxing? he multiboxes porters but gets away with it because of "unknown reasons"

unknown reasons probably the same unknown reasons that causes the thousands of EQ live players that WANT to play classic EQ but stay far far away from p99 :eek:

[Tuurin]

Have you ever actually been a porter-for-hire? If you have, you would know that "multiboxing porters" would be idiotic. Why the hell would you box porters?

I have a semi-retired druid in DaP and pretty much never port for hire. Every once in a while if I have 15 minutes or something I'll turn on my tag and do a couple ports, but honestly it's too much of a PITA for me to do it consistently. Thank god some people actually have the patience and general willingness to help people out by porting, because I sure as hell don't. And I can't imagine a reason why I'd actually box porters lol.

The multibox porters have union support. It will be impossible to get a ban to stick.

[Lhancelot]

I have insider info.

Hopefully I don't get caught passing the DAP trade secrets to you guys.

I think it's important now more than ever though, to disclose exactly what's going on.

DAP porters make so much plats that they are constantly having to bank the thousands of plats that they accrue over time while porting.

Boxing a trader in EC alleviates them from carrying around tons of plats, and saves them time because they don't have to stop porting and run to a bank every 10 minutes.

It's about efficiency.

Bonus tip; Every fatcat actually has a DAP porter. How do you think they got to be fatcats? All that plat began from porting.

[mtil]

I have a druid in DaP that I use whenever I don't have time to sit down and play for a while. As such I guess I miss out on a lot of internal politics but I haven't really seen anything that's being thrown around in this thread.

Personally, I don't advertise ports. I do put my tag on when I want to go on the clock, which most people understand. I do have a few people who seek me out, I assume I'm on their friends list, and I will try to help them out. I always go with the assumption that people would tip what they could afford.

I would recommend to anyone who doesn't have a steady cash flow to keep the tips on the lower side. That being said, the porter should not have an expectation of any compensation if they are 'porting for tips'. If you are expecting money, you should just put '50p' instead of 'tip'. I've run into a lot of lower level people who are still wearing cloth fillers, trying to give me 30p because they think that's the norm.

Its unfortunate that people are having bad experiences with porters. I'm not sure there is anything that could really be done about that, just the way the guild is structured/operated. I do use DaP on my main, they don't know who I am and I seem to have decent experiences. I get my SoW and port. The really good ones will offer extra services like invis/lev depending on where I'm going.

Addressing the original post. OP says he removed a porter for not knowing how to play. I guess my question would be, why didn't you try to help? I mean seems like it would be been fairly simple fix. Your actions and attitude shows that you have no real world experience in problem solving. If you actually have people working under you at work, assuming you work, I feel bad for them. Just because you have the ability to remove someone doesn't mean that it's your place to do so.

I have never seen any blacklist towards anyone. I assume there might be some people who feel like they should have been paid more their service and no longer provide ports for people but that seems like it would be up to the porter. I have never been told not to port anyone. The part about making people wait is pretty stupid. The people who I see working all the time are buzzing around picking people up all the time, I doubt that they even look at guild tags or give a shit.

Like I said before, I don't really have any vested interest in the guild beyond the fact that I port people a few times a week. If you don't like the service or person porting, find an alternative. OP is just some salty bitch.

[Tupakk]

TLDR

I have a druid in DaP and OP is just some salty bitch.

me on the other hand? i come here once every few weeks, sometimes months. so ... yeah... :eek:

I don't need to pull anyone out of the woodworks. The people that post here do so of their free will sir.

The only reason I keep it alive is because people like you that are toxic must be told about. And show that we as a server won't tolerate it.

Thanks

you are delusional.

not everyone is against me here. its DAP members and the little clique of 5 or so people and their alt accounts that post in RNF as their /b/

there are plenty of people here who despise you as the cocksucking snake you are. thats why DAP is being used less and less.
