Service is always worse for a product you've already paid for.

A more reasonable agreement would be a one time fee for NON level 60 characters. This way it would be a convenience for alts and members who are leveling and the porters can still gouge the level 60's for 50pp a port of whatever retarded price Tupakk thinks is fair.

Another cool option would be that a guild could help complete Druid and Wiz epics for DAP...I think some of the big bottle necks are MQ-able yes?

Hypothetically, what would be a fair price to pay to Dial A Port to cover ports from now until the end of the server?
Keep killing Wuoshi for them in a timely fashion [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I know we don't want to deal with it.

hows that gonna work

Even if they could split the plat evenly to all of the current members of Dial-A-Port, what about the new members?
Pretty much this. There can always be rogue members of dial-a-port that can basically say fuck you still, not gonna port. Also keeping in mind dial-a-port also contains alts from other guilds and valued information could be gathered if there is a sudden surge of BDA members needing to get to a given zone.

It would be best suited simply to get more druids and wizards in your guild.

I would suggest DaP implement a tiered system of service and pricing. This would be a yearly fee any player who plans to ever use their service pays. The fee is not a replacement for donations, but merely allows DaP to better identify and serve its diverse clientele.

Copper level (1k yearly fee) = they respond to your tells, and pick you up sometime within the next few hours. Ports only, no evacs or other services. CR's are not free.

Silver level (5k yearly fee) = same as copper level, but you can also hire them for evacs. CR's are still not free.

Gold level (10k yearly fee) = The true "gold standard" and the most favorite plan. All services unlocked. CR's are free.

Platinum level (40k yearly fee) = includes access to the famous DaP phone. 24/7 pick-up and delivery, private cell #'s of the DaP officers assure you only get the most experienced and speedy porters.

Velium level (250k, lifetime membership) = This is the plan Trump uses. Includes all platinum level services, plus you are assigned an in-game DaP butler, who follows you around, runs to merchants to sell off vendor trash, scouts out camps for you before you log on, and other exclusive perks. (Does not include on-demand cyber until Chardok revamp.)

Druids are the last thing we need more of.

So many things to answer.

Our current Roster holds 600+ members. Active members ranging to about 10% of that not on at any given time.

As most of you know we do not have a set in stone rulebook. We do not believe in rules as that would force someone to manage and monitor the guild more than what we do already.

If you want to set up a personal transaction with any DaP member I am sure they would oblige some sort of pact. However as you know and it was state this is a guild of alts out to farm plat in the most casual way possible.

There are a select few that make up the core of Dial A Port that will most likely be lifers and those would be the ones you want to talk to.

As far as information and people knowing where other guilds are going. We deal with moving people and know the patterns, we have our own timers and spawn tables so we know where to be when to be. As well as pretty much everyone in the raid scene. If you dont then you are failing as a raiding guild and should fire whoever keeps the timers.

If you were to ask me I would say (1000 x 24 x 365 =8.76mil) for 1 year. that's me dropping what Im doing to come port for you. Friendly discount for you Chest would drop it to an even 5mil.
