The moment this command to "block people from watching" or "setting a price to pay before watching" is implimented, people are just not going to bother with the bs and simply watch/listen to the afk entertainers.

"No no no no. You're confused. Battle fatigue EXISTS SOLELY to give entertainers a reason to matter. "



Yup, that's right. Live with it and quit your Boo-Hooing over here.



"You're NOT HEALERS."


I disagree. We are - we heal Mind Wounds and Battle fatigue - or did you miss that point?



"WHY should I have to care about what you do? ONLY correct answer: I shouldn't. "


Yup, I don't care what you do. I pay my subscriptions, just like you, to enjoy the game how I like to. Unless you've totally missed the point, all the professions are reliant on each other in one form or another, and if anyone tries to cover all their bases (by learning as many novice professions as possible) then they're never gonna be good at anything. I am reliant on tailors for clothing, architect for structures, weaponsmiths for my pistols, chefs for food (I have a pet - yeah, had to get that off a Bio-Engineer then a Creature Handler to train it - who I have to feed) and the list goes on.



I seems you just have an axe to grind about entertainers that has nothing really to do with tipping or healing. I'd like to close by stating that you are paying to play an Multi-player game where different people have different skills. If you feel so angry that the only people you *have* to interact with are entertainers, then I suggest you take a deep breath, cancel your subscription and go play Quake where you don't have to be so reliant on another player.

Does anyone know of a player-run cantina on Tempest? I could sure use a steady paycheck rather than the few pennies I get thrown at me by all the jerks who think I'mlittle better thana whore. Maybe paying for the privilege of watching me dance will force them to accord me and myprofessiona little respect.

Since June 2004, running one of the game's first completely nonviolent characters. Testing the limits of non-combat MMORPG play and trying to have fun into the bargain (although the developers make it difficult).

Combat is no longer compulsory.

I have always been fond of the idea of having additions to your faction standing if you maintain a certain rate of entertainment tipping. Positivereinforcement of behavior usually work better than negative.
