When I go to Dant, Endor Yavin, Dath and whip out my Racncor, I am starting to get tells asking to invite people to my little critter group.........I am considering charging (around 1k-3k) for this service. Grouping with pets to get better missionlvls is currently about the only perk we have left for using 105 SP and grinding all they way up to MCH..............

Well, i didn't notice yet, but i have barely been on ground since JTL, but i guess you can charge for any service as long as people pay for it. hehe

Only have had that happen once so far since I got master. I flat out say no. I don't really like solo groups and if I group with someone it's going to be a "we are hunting together" type thing. Hunting with my roommate (is a novice ranger and also a CH) is a lot of fun hehe.

I can only assume its for xp grinding, unless the new payout for groups is'nt working right now.
you can try charging but I dont believe it will be a welcomed reply by those asking, the fact that they are asking for grouping with you says alot about who they care about lol "themselves"
I personally do not solo group and think its very rude of strangers to even ask, never mind the accept box that pops up after landing in an outpost if they see your mch tag. for this reason I stopped showing it and just use my rifleman title.
sad isnt it, last year groups were fun and welcome. today groups are just a selfish means to a goal by many.

The only /tells I get are from people looking for non-CH mounts, as if I carry a bagful of lesser dewbacks and carrion spats around expecting tells from people looking for non-CH mounts.

Have to agree. The only tells I get lately are asking for non-CH mounts or pets.
If I have the time I stop and explain that I don't carry those types of pets on me but if they want to contract my services I will gladly Tame, Raise, and Train a pet for them in exchange for a specified fee of not less than 20k creds.
As you can expect I geta lot of grief over this because everyone expects to pay only 5k or less for a pet.
I then explain to them how much time it takes me to provide this service and that I am giving up my time that I could be making much better profits running missions etc. so they are actually getting off quite cheap.
No one has ever taken me up on my offer and they continue to give me grief after I explain things to them.
After that I just add them to my ignore list and go on my merry way!
/sigh

I tend to get tells for BE created mounts and have no issue with taming and training them for nothing. As a result, in every instance that I've trained the pets, I've received a tip of at least 20k.
Guess I'm a bit lucky, but maybe the"no fee" requiredside makes them feel more grateful in their payments.
Just my thoughts.

OMG I agree there, I never have more than one slot open in my datapad, so if I grab a lesser dewback and wait a week in hopes of selling it for 5k......

I don't charge for training other peoples critters either, I either will or I won't depending on what's going on.
