Port for donation logs?

[GSZ]

My thoughts - sounds like a massive waste of energy with no way to verify the info entered is even accurate. If you're not satisfied with the plat you're making porting people, consider making a change to your plat farming strategy.

I tip 50pp for a port if there advertising, 100pp if i ask somoene to go out of there way, and 100pp for DL/EJAC

Hi, I'm the guild leader of Uber Porters, a consortium of porters. Actually, I'm not really a "guild leader." I own an internet cafe in Seoul, and customers can earn free hours by playing one of my cafe's druids and making some plat. My cafe currently has ~250 druids on p99, but I am one of the smaller operations. Big Time Intrawebs, across the street, runs an entire guild -- THO or something like that -- on p99. They have over 800 accounts they run 24/7, but that cafe has three floors, and I suspect also supplies hookers and booze to top earners. I am happy for their success, not envious.

Anyway, to the point of the thread. It is very easy to establish log compilers across your cafe's accounts so that you can track donations, ports per hour, etc., so that you can extract your cut and/or calculate free hours on your cafe's computer stations.

We use Dell exclusively, btw! Dell is HIGHLY RECOMMEND for EVERQUEST WITH NVIDIA.

I hope this helps.

God damnit! Why didn't I think of this, such boss!

If I have a sapphire or ruby on me, I pay with that, otherwise it's 100pp. If I don't have 100pp on me to pay for a port, then I just run to wherever I'm going.

Higher level characters pay more

Don't help anyone in TMO because they are notoriously cheap mother fuckers.

The best strat, like Filbus said, is to just say "hey I'm paying X for a port to Y" where if x > 50p you're in good shape

I take back everything I said about BDA. Continue oppressing this one.

I'm generally poor, but usual starting port tip is 50p. Depending on nature of the port, time of day, and urgency, I may up it. The vast majority are 50-75p. If it looks like a poor main and I have 100p I'll tip that. I don't generally ask for a port to DL&evac, but when I do, its pretty much a standard 200p.

15-25p

TMO Tipped good 90% of the time (50pp+). The most outrageous tip I ever got was from a TMO member-guy handed me a staff of battle.

BDA Tipped good 80% of the time (50pp+)

Taken was closer to 60%, with the usual tips from their members in the 20-30pp range.

IB tipped poorly in my experience, with the average tip at 20pp.

My druid does not wear GEB's, too.
