Tip your Porter
I always port for donations, but lately it seems like I am getting swarmed by "Hey man, I need a freebie, I'm broke" Then some level 50+ with pimped out gear stands in front of me, not tipping...
Or a guy who actually claimed to be penniless, then after making understand the stupidity of his claim, he tells me to go "be noble in real life" Really not trying to R&F, but people please spread the word, time is money... If someone wants a free ride, take the boat, if not, determine how much plat you would pay to save your time running.... that is what you should tip. When not on my druid I tip a minimum of 30pp. The exception to this rule was when I first started out, even then, I tipped 4-5 pp .. whatever I could.... In the end, I am always wiling to help the less fortunate, if they are the less fortunate... don't be cheap, it makes you look like a DB :) |
I really have nothing to add to your post, I agree with you 100%. I just wanted to say that I love your signature picture lol. My friends and I were talking about that one the other day when we went out to our trunks before mission and there was alittle tiny owl sitting on one of them, looking just like the one on the right.

This is why I generally don't port lower levels. You want nostalgia, good you came here. Run from Surefall Glade to Kelethin like I did in 1999 and when I started here I did the same. I didn't get a port or anything like that.

Always try to tip.

Just charge up front if you're that hard up for plat.
Problem solved. |
Sigh

Don't be cheap ... if you got 100pp sitting on you... give 10-20pp to the guy that just saved you an hour run. Especially when you can recoup that 10-20pp after a kill or two at higher levels... Most importantly, don't tell someone you can't afford to give a tip of appreciation when you are all decked out in twink gear... it is insulting to the person you are asking a service from..... This isn't exactly college material, not sure how else to explain it for you :P |

It isn't rocket science, it really is that simple, not sure how to explain it to you more clearly for you to be able to understand... if you want plat, just charge, if you don't want plat, don't charge. What you do NOT do is specifically NOT charge and then complain that people aren't paying you a fee which you didn't ask for in the first place. etc etc. It's common sense. |

You don't tip the pizza man either, do you? Or tip after getting a hair cut? Or tip your waiter / waitress? Aside from certain restaurants, rarely are you ever required to tip. Do you think it's funny to not tip someone, or did someone really teach you somewhere along the way that not tipping is just fine with most people? I mean hey, I don't ever remember the pizza guy or my barber specifically asking for a tip, fuck'em then, right? Hahah. That's a pretty shitty attitude to have. |
