Thumbs down Dial a Douchebag: Wose Than Ever

The following is a message to Tuppak after the new and "improved" rules of dial a port have many of them asking for specific payment up front:

"I have used Dial loyally for many years and was even a member for a long while. I will not be using it anymore unless things change fast.

I just got cussed out by one of your druids when I told them that I could find another ride after he asked me for 60p straight up. It's not that I am not willing to pay 60p... it's that I'm not about to have some 40 druid port-bitch tell me how much I owe him straight up then spit in my face when I tell him no. A quick search for druids led me to one that was happy to pick me up for whatever I deemed the trip was worth. I gave him 70p just to spite Hopwil.

I'll be sharing my recent foul experiences with everyone I know."

this level of immersion on red would mean we'd be hearing about it on the local news.

Say what? They got new rules that include telling you what price they charge before porting? This is not going to go well if true.

A new porting guild will take over if DAP does that, lol.

Yessir. I got the news straight from Tuppak himself saying that they are allowed to do that now. I'm thinking about asking a GM to make my wizard leader of a guild called "Dial a Free Port"

I'm seriously down to join with my 60 dr00d if you did this, I could contribute 1+ hours several times a week at least, I'm sure we could find more too. Let me know if srs.

Rules haven't changed in almost a year and a half.

OP clearly having a meltdown for not getting ported first right away. I thank you for giving me a good laugh. I will back my guildmates til you provide any kind of real proof that said porter was rude because right now the only person being rude is you.

I wish you luck on the box tell everyone in Aftermath I said hi.

You got proof and a name for this rude behavior, and as you know how Dial is people conduct their business all a little differently as long as they stay in the confines of our rules then they are fine. Shoot me a screenshot of the whole conversation and I will have it taken care of.
I will not assist you. You get your people in order or your guild will dissolve. End of story.
Good luck with that.
Word going out to everyone right now. I don't need your "luck" :D

Speedyfeet here. We do not have any rule that forces anyone to pay a fee as a guild. Individual players are allowed to charge -if they want-. But as anyone who uses our services knows, 99% of us don't charge and sometimes refuse payment. I never mention money or plat, although I do accept tips.

Hopwil isn't in Dial a Port, and he IS a douche. Guy literally stole mobs off two of my quads in FV drolvargs the other day because I grabbed some in his track radius. I asked him in a tell to stop being a douchebag and got cursed out, then supposedly ignored.

I don't recommend playing with or even communicating with that guy. But just because a druid is anon doesn't mean they're DaP [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Nope. He specifically said I'd have to wait for 4 other people first AND it would be 60p. Other guy came immediately.

Must suck to constantly have that rotten foot in your mouth :*(

Not a foot in mouth issue since you failed to give all the pertinent information. But can't say I expect anything different from someone who generalizes a guild due to one member.
