I'm always getting a bunch of tells for rez's, people asking me to drop my group and run from sebilis to lake rathe to rez them for 30 plat or something. Here's a tell I got tonight, I laughed.

someone asked me for a port while I was running through DL by myself the other day. I said I was in the middle of something and he said it's np and wished me good luck.

I'm always straight up about it and usually just send tells to cleric in EC or someone I know, asking someone to leave Sebilis or something is just stupid.
I offer generally between 100p and 200p depending on the rez amount and time it really takes to get to body. I would offer more but I do a pickup and port to location and offer a port afterwards.
Even if its a rez where I drag the body to someone hanging out in the same zone I give them some plat.

This was hilarious. Someone should get that kid back on Xbox live or wow or something.

hahaha wow, he started off so friendly too!
I remember on live I made a killing off of rezes. But people begging for rezes became a nuisance. Someone would offer like 200pp and arrange a port so I could go rez them in South Karana, but it just wasn't worth my time to stop what i was doing to go rez some guy in SK when i already had made a few hundred plat rezes early that day.
Then they wouldn't understand why I wouldn't take this opportunity to make an easy 200pp and get all pushy like this guy. Y U NO REZ?

After sending tells to the Clerics in zones they wouldn't be xping in, I'll send tells to any Cleric [with sufficient rez powah] who shows up in /who. Sometimes there are no other Clerics available and it's better to try all options than give up.
But I never get pushy, and I always try to break off with a well-wishing. No reason to make enemies who wont help me in the future, even if they can't help me now.

Exactly, even aside from not being a dick I don't know why you would curse out someone who might be able to help you in the future. If someone says sorry they can't rez I tell them no worries, thanks for the resposne.

I remember early on in the beginning there were only 2 clerics with the ability to 90% rez. They were very generous and both made rounds to sola, solb, and guk and just mass rezzed people. But when my corpses got to like 5 days old I'd begin to WORRY and hound poor zexa or bubbles. And by hound I mean ask politely but a lot, cuz pathing wasn't so pro yet and you'd die to gigantic trains caused by mobs falling through the floor or something like 4 times a day. One time zexa rezzed 7 corpses in a row. I got through a hell level that way.
wait what are we talking about again?

Now with a plethora of clerics, I'd never bother one in Seb or any place else that they might be grouped.
If they are LFG, AFK, or just kinda running around, I will send a tell "Paying for Rez." If they're in another zone, I'll just do a pick-up. But honestly, if you can't find one, either log and come back another time or just eat the exp loss even though that sucks at times.
Reputation is most important on a low population server. Be nice to others, really, because it could turn around and bite you in the ass.
I had someone send me a tell LF port to WC yesterday. I told him I could do Nek only. He then calls me a "noob" for not being able to port to Nek, as if everyone and their mama can do ports now. I said that HE was the noob (even though he was 58-59) and that he should learn how to read. I wasn't anon or /rol and my level was clearly displayed as not yet 39. He got more pissy because he knew he was wrong and started criticizing my guild.
So I sent a nice little tell to the GL of his lovely guild and put a black mark on his trial period. Being nice goes a LONG way; being an ass bites you there.

When I was playing Meepo and doing Seafuries I was absolutely bewildered at the mass amount of clerics who'd take the trip out to OOT for 4/500 plat to rez my sorry ass.
thats all i got.

I think it's hilarious that he thinks a hammer proc = returning to Sebilis.
And running across SK to get to Lake rathe isn't some small distance. Even with a higher end sow, it's a long run.
In any case, the details are irrelevant - he was acting like a pretentious jerk (based only on the small amount of information provided).

oh also, i'm gonna tell ya the legend of NiNiKs generosity is not overstated. When I first started reading the forums I was like "wow big fucking deal.. some gnome cleric tosses rezzes for free someone alert the internet"
and then ninik boated to OOT and rez'd my wife's corpse when her charm failed on a seafury and I was across the ocean @ Allize. just showed up after apparently very few tells, rez'd, handed cookies out and bounced.
Ninik, you're really something else.

I love seeing people who are jerks like this. They make it onto my /ignore list quickly and I take note to never group / help them ever. Thankfully, that list is fairly small. Reputation can kill your fun on this server. I'd rather wait 30 minutes for a suitable player in my groups than to settle for someone who I or group members know is a problem.
As has been stated already... Why make enemies with someone who could help you in the future but can't help you now? That's very short-sighted.

maybe a high level non-raid cleric shortage... unless you define shortage as "in demand" because then cleric will always be in a shortage

The cleric is the go to class for the people who are mentally challenged, ninja looters, and have terrible reputations because no matter how bad you are you get groups.
I see lots of clerics

My experience has usually been:
1 rez, in zone, corpse dragged to you = 200p tip
6 rezzes, have to travel and cr = 20p tip

The guy was pretty loquacious, and funny when stymied, so I'm going to guess the cleric was in fact in Overthere, and not Sebilis. It's a bit disingenuous to lead people to believe otherwise, unless I'm mistaken, in which case, sue me. I think OP was just having fun with what was obviously a fun moment in EQ, nothing srs guys. lol

Just for the record, this specific instance, I was in OT outside of HS. I just mentioned sebilis because in the past I had actually been in seb and gotten tells for rez's in places like sol b, freeport, etc

I remember first talking about this word in my 8th grade English class. Some kid told a story with the focus being around the use of the word. The kid was ironically what I would consider the personification of loquacious.

Why do people even care to get rezzed before level 40? You lose so little. Seems like they want to get rezzed to make their hurt feelings feel better, not because the wait, donation, and waste of cleric's time is worth the recovered XP. At level 13 you lose what, ten minutes of XP from dying?

Maybe 10 minutes of really good xp, plus the run, and it varies depending on the xp penalty of the character. I'm guessing recent deaths have set me back at least 30 minutes. But still, I doubt that has anything on higher level deaths.

Not to mention that you could be disrupting the xp of up to 6 people and the time you will lose on rez effects makes it pretty much pointless at such low lvls.
