Default When asking for a port

When asking for a port please don't ask are you porting or say Hi. Simply tell us where you are and where you want to go and and please BE at the druid rings in the zone u want picked up from. Alot of us don't mind coming to you but when we run to you alot of other people have to wait for us to finish with you

I actually do not like people sending my druid tells stating simply "Need port from xx to xx", but then again I'm not in DaP, so...

The story is part of the fun. With a little sweet talking I sometimes get a port for free.

Put all your gear into your bags and sell it as a corpse run. The art of the deal homie!

A lot of times in the past I have had porters with DAP tag up, not respond, or say, "oops I accidentally had tag up I am not porting now..." Which lead me to sometimes start with, "are you porting?"

This is a personal preference for you, to want people to directly tell you X to X in the first tell.

Some probably don't like this way of asking for a port, so it's just a matter of taste.

This should be in RnF. It's 100% a rant. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You seem rustled. You should join red server, where you can port people you dislike to plane of hate or north karana druid rings (if evil race).
