For the most part people on Blue are very generous tippers. I don't think most people realize how much plat you can make if you're actively trying to port people. ~340 mana earning ~50p while being mostly AFK adds up real fast.

That said fuck succoring, I avoid doing them when at all possible unless I see someone WTB for a longgg time or get a direct request. Way too much of a time investment and either it takes forever to meet up/run/succor or they pay 20p.

Blue is very different. On Green it seems that half the people want Dial to be a free bus with optional payments which is both sad and insulting to the people working Dial.

We’re not working, we’re playing a game. Possibly at work.

Oh, some people are working. The longer you follow server drama, the more of those you'll see get caught doing just that.

TLDR: A bunch of penny pinching weirdos get mad at other penny pinching weirdos in 1999 elf sim.

Problem would be 100% resolved if porter stopped pretending to do the work for "tips" and went ahead and just listed a price. If you're doing it for "the generosity of the customer" than you aren't allowed to rage when someone doesn't throw down the big plat.

This thread is laughs I feel like a russian troller is here trying to get p99 community irate at eachother.

Strongly considering making a druid to assist these goofballs.

I'm still a big fan of porting the porters. U can demand payment after, or even do it for free. Both are equally funny lol.

Boycott tipping for ports. Show those greedy fuckin porters who's boss. Maybe they'll go earn elf currency some other way like a normal person
Excellent idea. Come back in a week and let us know how the boat rides were.

I consider paying for ports to be paying for the time it saves me to not take the boat. Same with rezzes, they save me the time of not re-grinding that xp. It doesn't matter how much or little effort/time/mana it costs the person providing the service, what matters is the benefit I get from their service, and that benefit is worth my plat.
