Since we're in a dog-pile....(I feel a bit dirty doing this)
Days ago, at the start of the 'returned Eftreeti Boots' debacle, I'm chillin in EC, Shadow pacting and FD pulling orc1 for a small group of lowbies and she sends me a tell asking if I could summon her corpse from 'deep in SolB'
I agree, and tell her to get a coffin. She tells me she has no money and could I get a coffin? I agree to meet her at Neriak and lend her 55 plat so she can buy one. She takes my 55 plat, goes and buys the coffin and upon return, hands me a coffin, and 55 plat.
We proceed to SolB, I summon the corpse, she says {paraphrased} 'Thanks a ton, I went LD and after an hour of failed CR I just quit.'
She then proceeds to disband, rez herself and goes about her merry way.
Now, let's be clear, I'm not greedy. However, I'm admittedly a little salty over the fact that I ran across 2 zones, lent her money, waited for her to use my money to get the necessary reagent, and then used a spell that not every necro has, that I paid alot of platinum for, for free.
Charging someone a set price for a service isn't EQ, so of course I won't. But all the same, corpse summons, like rezzes and ports, are a class-unique service. I feel it's appropriate to offer something for the effort. She went on my 'avoid' list that day.
