Probably the solution right here. Don't port until they've made their donation, and if they get difficult about it take them to the end of the world and /wave.

This is funny. Is it legal to do this ?

Dial-a-Port rules
 
Obviosly whoever posted this rant either was not actually a Dial member or did not bother to read the guild rules. This post goes against everything we stand for as a guild. Although, we do EXPECT payment for our services, we do NOT complain when we do not get piad (things happen).

Fair points, but you're giving out that kind of money because you can make that kind of money. Porting and quad kiting you can obviously make a pretty penny. I'm maining a Rogue on Green and you think I have money to tip people 20+ plat for SoW? Lol. I can't really farm a lot of plat solo, and in groups I'm of course limited by the amount of weight I have to spare (once I hit the limit, I'm not looting much if anything because I don't want to be encumbered and also can't leave the group to go sell); so the amount of money I can make is relatively limited.

OP's point was this, though - the guy clearly had money. He's not posting because a naked lvl 1 didn't tip :P

Maybe I am missing something, but DAP has always been a paid service. People have mentioned that is why we don't ask for "donations". CR are free because you cannot get blood from a turnip. On some occasions, people have said "i have no money will you still port me." I don't know a single DAP member who would say no. I also know that people forget to tip. Many feel embarassed and go out of there way to make it up and then some. I was tipped an ODS by a shaman who forgot to tip me on blue. Personally i would just ask that person if they forgot to pay. If there is some sort of issue, just /ignore and move on

Sort of counter to the definition of a “donation” (an act or instance of presenting something as a gift, grant, or contribution.). Gifts are gratuitously given, without requiring a reciprocal act.

If they ‘require’ a sum of money to port someone, just call it what it is - a fee.

really wish DAP would get their act together on Green and have an army of druids porting
