Hi there, I'm Vowe. Long time lurker, first time poster.

So, I've noticed a common thread running through many of your entertainer posts. And that is,entertainers areat the mercy of patrons' tips to sustain them, ifthey don't do other things to providethem with income.

In my opinion, that kinda stinks. Given that combat professions can go out and run missions for a couple hours and make a couple 100k, you're in quite a bind.

A lot of people seem to ask, how can an entertainer make money? Buffs shouldn't be the only significant means of an income for an entertainer. Not with how important their Battle Fatigue/Mind healing skills are. And many folks are content to utilize this benefit from Entertainers, sometimes without tipping. I've always tipped for getting healed up. But, from this day on, I'm going to do my best to single-handedly try and make a few lucky entertainers on Starsider millionaires solely thru my tips. And many will have 100's of thousands in their bank courtesty of me. Here's how.

First off, I'm a TKM.I can go run missions and make some cash. I'll make a few 100k in a couple hours time. I run missions for various important things in-game, like armor, food/drink, or for maintenance on houses - well, entertainers sure are important to me, too - they keep my Battle Fatigue at zero and my mind wounds healed. They deserve more than the usual small tips. So, I'm going to start running missions for entertainers.

I'll dedicate some mission runs to solely give away that money to some lucky "at the keyboard" players. If someone's AFK, their loss. I think it'll be fun to run missions for a couple of hours, knowing I'm going to make some lucky entertainer's day with a 300k tip. Or maybe 3 Entertainers will get 100k. Just keep a lookout on Starsider for Vowe Darkwave, and maybe you'll get a handsome tip

I feel it's time for me to "share the wealth." I hope by doing this, I can start a trend. In real life, there are always people at the local pub who are the big spenders - buying everyone drinks etc. It's time us rich folks in the game were more of the big spender type, rather than the miser holed up in their mansion a la Mr. Burns in The Simpsons. Besides, I want to be known as the "rich" guy in the cantina who tips well lol.

So, if you're on Starsider and see me enter a cantina, be sure to say hi back if you're not AFK. It could be your lucky day!

P.S. Sorry for the long post, but I just wanted to really express how important you guys are to me, and how much I want to help your guys' game be a little more fun. Also, keep in mind that this will *not* be something I'll do for every entertainer, it's all in the fact that I either just ran some missions for entertainers, or that particular entertainer really did a great job at entertaining me.

I also have plans to incorporate a game of chance into this, using dice or a chance cube. Maybe each side of a 10-sided die is worth 10,000 - if I group with you and roll a 10, you get a cool million. A chance cube roll pays out 50,000 for the color you didn't choose, and 100,000 for the color you did choose. Sound like fun?

Thanks Vowe. I think it's great a TK hangs around, even though you don't have to all that often due to the benefits of you prof.

You sound very generous and I think that's awesome! I'm on Starsider too and after I'm done one more level, I'll be in Cnet when I dance. Except I don't really need the money either. I can run missions if I need to. So you can give it some noob it would benefit more.

Oh and the dice game? I'm a gambling woman so bring it on!! Except instead of me getting the money, you give it to a person of my choice who's an atk entertainer or is being healed and can use the money. Deal?

Oh and Kit's not my in-game name. I'll send you a PM if you want that. (I have reasons for not having it in a sig)
