I make very little use out of Dial-a-port. I might've used them twice in the past year, if even that. Sense of entitlement is right when folks act like ports-on-demand are somehow mandatory to even play the game (they aren't).

The last Dial a Bum I called ported me to the wrong zone and gated out to leave me there, so beware.

Danth is spot on, but let's be honest about the % of people that play this game and would rather spend 30 minutes waiting for a port from BB To WC before attempting to ride the boat. These types of ports account for a lot of cr port requests. People are too impatient to even snag a bond near where they are actively grinding and when they die who feels entitled for that cr port?

DAP is awesome, even if they don't have some strict recruiting process for their guild. 99% of them are cool, a small minority are not.

Typically the bad ones leave or get booted pretty fast.

The guild provides a very useful service, and in return allows druids/wizards a way to make money helping others out. I don't see the big deal here.

Only complaints about DAP are from people enjoying the troll.

Nowadays if you're not /anon people expect a free rez if you're in the zone they died in. Often no tip, just a "thanks" and usually a "hey can i get a HP buff/AC/etc?"

Don't shit on the server's clerics... they're some of the nicest people. If you'd tip 50pp for a port, remember clerics can't earn anything outside of grouping. Keep a stack of peridots on you for port/rez tips, I do [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I always tip any cleric that rezzes me 100pp because most the time they go out of their way. If they are in zone spamming that they are rezzing I'll tip 50pp since they are already there. People need to treat the clerics good too. Most of the time clerics will not accept tips or donations, but its kind if you offer then a tip (9/10 they will remember you and wont think twice on coming to rez you if you ask).

It's more like a druid adds me to friends knowing I am usually on and don't mind buffing him for free since I don't accept tips on my enchanter, even from DaP. It's all how you act towards them. I have several friends who are no longer in DaP that will still port me for free. I don't own a druid high enough to port yet nor to I own a wizard. So I'm not I DaP. I just like being nice, and in return they are nice to me.
