Nah it's more like some keep their tag up even when OOM and let their list backup. Had this happen a few times and told them they should go /anon to get mana before taking up more tells. One of them told me they didn't really care.

Ah ya hadn't thought of that but it makes sense. could be worthwhile to put my druid in DaP for awhile, just to see how it feels on the other side [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If you're porting you need to switch it up once in a while. You can taste the confusion when you drop people off and then gate out before they can open a trade window with a "thanks! good luck!" /disband.

Then there're the people who make use of the /split command. Those are insidious and hard to avoid... Be one of them! Ain't noone got time to click accept let alone having to kneel down to reach a hobbit!

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

Alot of them don't drop tag while they are on a job, and instead create a backlog of jobs, making clients wait in a queue (when the client would otherwise be able to find a different, more immediate porter instead).

The worst is when they claim they are 'on their way' but you can see on /who all they are taking a very indirect route.

Someone in dap plz compile a list of all AM members who don't tip so we can all make fun of them.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

I don't care about not getting tipped, but if you don't say thank you after I've done something for you, you are on a list and can expect petty and vindictive retribution.

Friend of mine is telling me that a guild called Dawn Believers has the worse/most-rotten people in it since P99 was launched. Says he refuses to port anyone with that tag... Is this true?
