I'm planning on charging what I used to charge before Buffbots.

Whatever they want to tip me. I mean, if I get more customers, I should get more money, right?

I've always charged 3k for dancer buffs, and will continue to do so. The truth is, I don't feel right charging so much for buffing one stat, when doctors - who go through a LOT of garbage in order to be able to buff well - charge 10k for SIX. Sure, it takes me a little longer, but I don't so much need the money anyway, I am also a tailor.

The only think I'm hoping to change is the tone/manner of some players. I have never had a set fee for buffs simply because I think every player should be able to get a mind buff whether they have 26 credits in their pocket or 26 million credits. Periodically this means I don't get paid for a buff but that's so rare that I don't worry about it. I also always send a private tell thanking them for the tip no matter the amount. I've had people even apologize that they couldn't tip more. Whenever they do that I always have the same response "Never, ever apologize for tipping". Now that's my general policy. I do on occassion set a price of 5000 - 6000 credits for a buff. I do that when the player is rude and will probably continue that as well.

When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the Earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor.

I'll do it for free and only use a macro that makes me sound like a bot so people can call me a buffbot, then when they start yelling at me I'll laugh to myself and let them know I'm not a bot.

I buffed for free before and I'll continue to do so, I also ID for free and people cry about that. Buff bots are not the only ones who do things for free.

Buffing for free is a far cry from being a buffbot.

I've given free buffs to those that can't afford it, and have never been screamed at by nearby entertainers.

Setting a price is the seller's prerogative.
