When I'm on my enc I always tip when calling DaP

There is only 2 exceptions to this

1) I'm in CS and need a port I will /ooc "c2+GoB+enlighten for port to X" - this will almost always get me a port from someone quadding as its well worth their mana for the mind buffs to exp off of for awhile. This is a by choice exchange for them

2) Someone asks or offers to port me for mind buffs

Aside from that I will always tip at least 50p (more if they are fast) when ordering a pickup from DaP or in very rare circumstances a non-DaP druid/wiz

DAP pushed their agenda so hard for years that people seem to consider 50p as cheap. 50p is exactly what I pay for ports.

Also, the term "tip" drives me nuts. Its not a tip this day in age, you're porting for plat, therefore its a fee.

^ 100%.

If you ask me 50p in exchange for a port, I will pay you 50p. If you ask me for a tip (which you shouldn't even ask...), you'll find I'm far more generous.

It's like when they add that 15% gratuity included for parties of 6 or more... That's fine, charge me the 15%. I would have tipped more.
