If you are 35+ and tip 10pp for a port to DL from WC, that's a cruddy move. I just saved you hours of travel and that's worth 10 plat to you? yikes

You just lost my plat, Never using you. Instantly replaced by another druid who is happy to take 10pp. Shit i'll even pay him 30pp for a one way in spite of your attitude. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You have to remember that the only reason people use boats on this server is for nostalgia or to go to a specific boat zone. There is enough druids and wizards on even during low pop to port to every port location for almost any price. You're not special, Do not pass go, do not collect 200pp.

I'd say 25-30p average for regular joe, 50-75 for a complicated port.
Nobodies and corpse runs usually go for free by our nice ports men and women, cause we all know the feeling.

I am a newbie and no one has been mad about my 1-2 or 0 pp tip. (mostly 0 cause its a CR) and everyone I have dealt with has been nice. I always get to spires or pyramid so they don't have to run at all. I am friendly and that goes a long ways.

Thanks friendly druids and wizards who know us newbies don't have much to offer and we appreciate your service.

Dial A Port porters can set their own tariffs though, just remember who the shit ones are and use the chilled ones. 90% are chilled, and I think the people trying to charge more for a pickup etc "well, cos its double the mana init?" soon change their ways.

I tip everyone, it's my philosophy

What boggles my mind is when people sit in the tunnel for 30 mins "LF port to sro for CR."

As a newer player, I try and give at least 5 if it's a dial a port person in the zone. If it's someone taking extra time, I try and give as much as I can. I saw a post about a guy who wanted someone to come get him from FoB and was mad that they said 300p for it, but that sounds reasonable to me. Run to a zone where someone is already porting if you want them to do it on the cheap.

If I get a tell asking for a ride from field of bone, I don't set a price..so just let me know (Gildior) ..It really is a short run since im bound at karnor..

but yeah, make a little effort, zone into EJ and ask for a ride from the FOB Zone Line..its safe and a lot of guys will stomach that better than the extra zone into FOB for some reason
