Baler is blowing this DaP propaganda out of proportion, DaP is a great service for the server. DaP doesn't badger or gouge the server.

Again, Baler is just mad over some perceived wrong.

eh,. you've already proven you don't know the history here & history repeats itself.
Let's keep this civil.

Having only been here a few months, I would openly admit to not knowing a lot of the history here as well. What has DaP done in the past to merit a Stalin-esque Communist Dictatorship era reception?

We’ve done nothing. He just likes to stir the pot.

The only crime we are accused of is being passionate about what we do.

Who's the best tipper on the server?

[Tuljin]

Any salable gem is legitimate currency on P99 as long as the platinum works out after they are sold. Monks have been carrying gems instead of coin forever.

50pp at level 60 is a "standard" tip but personally I know many high level toons are cash poor. 25 or 30pp is a solid port tip, especially for mid-50s. Nubs can ride for a few plat. If you don't want people to think you have money and you actually do but want to save money on ports, bring a set of junk gear around with you and wear it. If you rock an AM/AW tag wearing some warmbody DKP shinies and you're a cheap tipper of course you are gonna be thrown some shade, its just the way shit works.

Ill share a secret - if you don't want to be disappointed don't give anybody a CS port then an evac through SG. Some people will give you 100pp, some will give you 10. What will likely happen is you will "have to wait for my buddy" and you'll find yourself soon with a full group of random nubs on their way to ToV that wont tip you on the other end of the evac because they'll treat you like the port bot they think you are.

Slight hijack as I'm learning the economy: what's the tipping policy on a bind or a SoW? I'm level 21 and have tipped 5pp for a bind, and SoWs have seemed to be mostly complimentary (especially on a corpse run when you have nothing on you) as long as I run to them and they're not busy.

What about rezzes? I tried to pay a cleric after they gave me a 96% rez in Unrest, but they declined. What would be a standard tip to offer if they are in the zone?

[Jimjam]

In fairness, if someone's p99 experience largely rotates around tov there is a good chance they'll be cash poor even if they have spent a long time collecting no drop pixels at zone lines.

Dots are loved by all because you get the dopamine hit when you sell them. Tip 50p at high levels, if you can't afford it it's time to figure out how to make some plat. Tipping 50p makes it easier for porters to help on crs for free and port poor lowbies for little.

^this - i tip 50+ @ 60 depending on the flight pattern [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

ex: ~75pp for a port to CS and succor across SG. With a ~90% success rate running it, if a port/succor happen to be in front of my face, I'll take it heh.

Then again, we have plenty of plat to donate for ports/rezzes since we spend very little on gear and spells, and whatever plat we do spend, stays in the guild economy to help others.
