1 pp per level = absurd expectation for lowbies to pay

Grinding levels on foot instead of wasting money on too many ports is good advice. dunk harder

time is the commodity,
which seems to be a point missed by some here. your Porter chose to spend it (time) porting you in exchange of spending it (time) on something else that generates pixel wealth. tip the porter, ffs. what the hell is wrong with you? on the flip side, were I a porter, id ignore you as to never make the mistake of porting you again. I believe smelly butt face has an accurate analysis on why hard prices aren't set. If prices get set, competition rises, standards protect the consumer, and the port cartel breaks down. that being said, I happen to like the port cartel, and those of you who play classes that make more money have an easy opportunity to make someone happy by giving them more money. when I played an enchanter, for example, id be embarrassed not giving 1pp per level minimum. understandable this isn't the case for a warrior. | ||

One of the best things about being able to port others is not porting others. It just isn't worth it in the long run.

Summary for those of you that missed the actual point (because he did tip if you didn't get that far into his post) :
Wizards and Druids - Don't complain about the amount you were tipped if you didn't clearly stipulate what your minimum required tip amount was while offering/negotiating for your services. If you ask for a random tip amount, then expect a random amount. | ||

How the fuck are there always thread about this? It's not rocket science. 1pp per level is the "standard". If you can't afford it, speak on it. I tip anywhere from 20-70pp for a port depending on how my pocketbook is looking. If I'm low on funds, I let them now. Never once have I ever had someone gripe that I didn't tip well enough. Seriously makes me question the character of these individuals getting screamed on by porters.
