Make official price for tipping

[Old_PVP]

Tipping is an abomination and needs to be removed from society.

[Fammaden]

People gave my mage on green plat for summoning them pet swords without me expecting it, like all the time. 10 or 20 plat, surprised me at first but it happened all the time with 40+ pet casters. I can dig it since that extra power means extra plat in their pocket, takes no time at all to get 10 or 20 plat in the 40's leveling a caster solo.

What Fammaden said. I get amazed when I hear that some 40+ person didn't tip a resser/buffer/porter. Like seriously Most 35+ mobs drop avg 3-10pp per kill if you count FS.

[Snortles Chortles]

ReZ is 100-200pp
SoW or Regen /dance /grovel - 25pp
Ports 40-50pp

^^ if you ever pay any less you are scum. Walk or starve or whatever.

[Balimon]

I always tell the porter up front how much I'm paying, generally 40-50p.

This should be fairly easy, when I'm on a non-porting char I send a tell along the lines of "Hey I'm at X rings, could you port me to Y rings for xxplat?" Works 99% of the time. Bonus points by /who all druid/wizard and look for people that are in zones that are port locations.

When I'm on my Druid in EF or LGuk and I get a tell "can u port me" I'm ignoring you, if I'm bumming around WC and have to have more than 2 or 3 tells to figure out where you are without /who'ing you, I'm ignoring you. I cut people breaks for tip prices and generally assume they're tipping whats fair to them. But if you're all twinked out or a fellow 46+ raider and you toss me 10p you're going on my ignore.

Majority of my <35 ports are 20-25p without asking, most of my 46+ ports are 50-100p without asking. If I don't feel like porting or am busy I /anon (though this isn't fool proof because of people knowing my name/class anyways. But c'mon, don't ask for a port if I'm in SolB. Once in a while I'll get a few low levels scrounge up 7p or something to port them out to the Karana's or whatever and that doesn't bother me when they are obviously a bunch of leather/cloth wearing dudes just out leveling.

I do roll my eyes at you when you ask for a free CR port and then start putting on your gear as you run away. Quick /ignore for you.

hah! people actually do this? takes all kinds i guess.

your post pretty much calls out why I rarely port anybody who's not a guildie, it's too much effort to keep a do not port list. i'd rather farm SGs (or whatever) for cash, or just do without.

Other porters I know operate like this and the rest should. If porting has value then pay appropriately for it, if it doesn't have value then run/boat.

How much does clarity count towards the tip?
