Some friends of mine told me dial a port is having drama. So join taxi, their new rival to keep the port monopoly down and make the greedy porters take a lower wage for service.

I'm logged in a good portion of the time on my DaPper, so I feel safe saying: There is no drama other than what you bring with you.

As for Taxi, good luck to them. Calling them "rival" is pretty generous. Seems a bit like calling a team of pee-wee football kiddos a rival to a team of primed, trained NFL professionals.

No use <UBER>. All ports are a flat rate 5pp for Norath, 10pp for Kunark and 15pp for Velious & Evak. 1-5 people. Same low price

Well I don't want to be the guy who casts the first stone and realizes he's inside a glass house (to mix metaphors), so let me qualify that this is "as far as I know "... but for as long as I've been in Anonymous (well over a year) I haven't heard of us getting disciplined in any way.

That makes perfect sense to me because I've seen how our leadership handles frustrating situations (like another guild clearly training us in ToV): they keep their cool and tell everyone else in the guild to do the same. Some leaders do that, and some leaders act like the ones in the guild that trained us.

Now I'm not trying to say that everyone should join Anonymous, or that our leaders are perfect, but I do think that when a guild's leadership has a history of earning bans people should abandon those leaders/guilds and give a guild without a history of bans a try.

Isn't that the exact point I'm trying to make? Some guild leaders take chances that could get their guild suspended, some don't. If you don't like getting suspended, pick a guild leader who doesn't roll the dice when it comes to breaking the rules.

The problem here is it is not mutually exclusive. A / A takes chances while killing raid mobs, Anonymous does this much less. As the saying goes: if you play with fire, you're going to get burnt.

Why do you have to 'take chances' with mobs you've already killed a few dozen times?

I appreciate your honesty with this post ... but honestly ... what's the point?
