I do not use the word "donations" but i do expect a tip if you are a stranger. Typicaly people pay 20-50p. When people ask what i charge i always say "whatever you think is fair" or "people normaly pay 1p per level" Some people are cheap and pay 3p a few have stiffed me and payed nothing, like when i left my camp to pick a guy up in toxx and he said thanks and left. I never every give people guff for being cheap or stiffing me but i will probably will be busy next time they ask. If its a CR its very clear my time is being donated, unless i am in the middle of something i do not mind helping.

When people advertise the price they want to pay its a much more attractive to a porter. A, we know if it will be worth our time to stop what we are doing make your life easier, but more importantly we know you are ready to go! Nothing is worse then waiting at the rings for 10 min to port a stranger for 5p.

When clerics stop expecting to be paid for res, I'll stop asking to be paid.

When I get 10p for a rez I cry irl, get mad, and go to sleep. The next day I lash out at those close to me while socially isolating myself from everyone else. I'm usually better by the evening, however.

I remember before luclin came out, I was playing a wizard and was meding outside KC when some guy came out spamming for a druid to port him. I told him I was a wizard but he said he wasnt looking for a group, he was looking for a port. O-o I was trying to offer him a free port but I think he didnt realize the wizards can port too, not just druids. He ran off looking for a druid... I just shrugged and continued soloing. Later on he was spamming LF a rez... O_O

Heh, i get annoyed when people try and donate for clarity.

I don't want your 3pp...

what annoys me even worse is the people who come up and just put money in a trade window and click trade... as if i'm supposed to instantly recognise that this person wants clarity or something.

Perhaps they are getting your name confused with omniscient and believe you already know what they want?

I never find this annoying. In fact, I support the whole concept. If anyone wants to walk up to me and place money in my hands, feel free.
