lol @ Karsten. I swear some of those poor lower guk groups you made thought we were in cahoots with one another.
Man it sucked back then when like me and Zexa and Tild and Matahari's wife were the only ones who even had 49 rez. And all those poor bastards in banded armor were dropping like flies. To this day I avoid SolA like the plague just from the memories of logging in, and doing at least 3-4 hours of resses at the SolA and SolB zonelines before actually "playing". And no one really had money back then so the whole 'donation' thing was the exception as opposed to the 'norm'.
But yeah, i've never really charged for resses.. And it cuts both ways, cuz the guy flipping you 17pp *really* wants to show his appreciation for your kindness, so it's almost insulting to not take it.. so meh..
Clerics and druwizards don't even belong in the same conversation. One is giving back 5+ hours of your life back with the click of a button, the other is saving your lazy ass a 10 minute hike across a few zones. And yeah,eff symbol.. But 700 to res, 110 for resolution,and another 250 to pop a sup heal on top of it, cuz not healing someone to full just doesn't feel right. So 1k mana vs. the 450 it takes to gate, port and gate back doesn't really compare.
The funny thing is most clerics *don't* charge cuz dicks don't play clerics in general. Your more mercenary folks play the druids and enchanters and such with profit in mind from day one.
