Any many people have very little plat as well. It's also very dependent on class. A level 20 Warrior isn't farming much plat.

"time" may have value to you, but not the other person, unless you sign an agreement with them before the port then they are obligated to spend nothing

Maybe I am missing something, but DAP has always been a paid service. People have mentioned that is why we don't ask for "donations". CR are free because you cannot get blood from a turnip. On some occasions, people have said "i have no money will you still port me." I don't know a single DAP member who would say no. I also know that people forget to tip. Many feel embarassed and go out of there way to make it up and then some. I was tipped an ODS by a shaman who forgot to tip me on blue. Personally i would just ask that person if they forgot to pay. If there is some sort of issue, just /ignore and move on

I wish they'd say at least what guild this person belonged to because I have a feeling I already know.

I have to say, I've always played a wizard, and I have always enjoyed porting people greatly, meeting them, making friends, having a good time, getting to know certain people through it, helping people out. I have never had an issue porting lower levels, or a small tip here and there cause someone is broke, I totally get it. But lately... Some times i go through 20 ports, some people max level, and don't get over 10 plat from people, and i don't say a word, but you better believe it makes me throw on anon a lot, and thats something I NEVER did before recently.

It discourages you from wanting to port people, not that its about money, but its about the gaming experience, if i can make more, exp, and make more friends grouping or roaming, why would i want to port people? the initiative is never required, but it certainly makes it more worth peoples time, i give 15 plat tips for clarity and sow some times 20, ports i give 50 on my alts, and hes only level 35. Its just common courtesy is all, but helping people out is always a priority to an extent of their niceness as a person.

Fair points, but you're giving out that kind of money because you can make that kind of money. Porting and quad kiting you can obviously make a pretty penny. I'm maining a Rogue on Green and you think I have money to tip people 20+ plat for SoW? Lol. I can't really farm a lot of plat solo, and in groups I'm of course limited by the amount of weight I have to spare (once I hit the limit, I'm not looting much if anything because I don't want to be encumbered and also can't leave the group to go sell); so the amount of money I can make is relatively limited.

OP's point was this, though - the guy clearly had money. He's not posting because a naked lvl 1 didn't tip :P

There's no shame - only awareness. Post the name so I can clarity blacklist to allow the karma to flow.
