I have never had a problem with dial a port and have always been both satisfied with the service I've gotten and appreciative of their existence. It really does simplify the process of finding a port.
It eats the cold calling of random searchable wizards/Druids likely to be busy with their own gameplay.

Spirit of Wolf potions or Journeyman/Traveler Boots, Overthere hammer, means of levitating across Timorous to the firepot room, Thurgadin gate potions, and a dash of patience: That's the recipe for independence of travel in-game. Add in an extensive friend list (most established players have their own port mules) and you shouldn't need to hire a random porter (Dial or otherwise) more than once in a blue moon.

I use Dial a Port regularly on all my toons. The way I see it is that most of these druids/wizards are there to make plat so they can save up for something they really want. We've all been there. I've never had one ask me how much I'm paying, I usually pop about 50-75p in the trade window as soon as I see them arrive and I get good service.
Can you imagine how much DaP gets jipped by people too? I had one of my lowly druid alts tagged in DaP for a bit and got a tell from someone who was in my main's guild at the time. He had no idea it was me, but I got there quick and even sow'd him. I dropped him off at his destination and he left without tipping and disbanded. I never saw him in the same light again and from what I gather he's over at the Phinny server now.

This thread has gotten me to raise my tipping to even higher than 1pp per level, in order to subsidize those who don't pay.
Basically, teleportation welfare for free riders. | ||

people that want to get "rich" by porting are generally pretty bad at eq
10 ports an hour seems ambitious, so does 100pp / port, so a massive 1k/hour income on a great day? git gud | ||
