The purpose of this system is to keep medics from healing people who don't have money by coding. If you hear a whirrring sound in the background it is Hipocrates spinning in his grave.

Wait, they translated some kind of Earth oath from a distant galaxy in the far future into Shyriwook? I must have missed having to take any such oath in Doc school in SWG. Good thing, too, because I could have never been a Combat Medic if I had.

no, absolutely not.. we don't want yet another maintenance to pay, and what about when i want to do pro-bono work myself? do i _have_ to charge for my heals even though i don't want to?

I think the voluntary tipping, as bad as it is, is better.

Here's a wild idea: make it less expensive to make the **edit** meds, then we wouldn't have such horrible cash problems.

Off topic. heh i was able to read that sig Alila a fast as i read other things, only thing i had trouble with was "without"

maybe it should have been "wtihuot" since its a contracted word from two words.

"Sounds a lot like the great American medical system to me. . .

"What you're dying and you don't have insurance? Get your skinny butt out of my hospital!""

Cute analogy.. but dead wrong. It is against the law for hospitals to refuse treatment for anyone in need of emergency services regardless of their ability or intentions to pay. Insurance rates are sky high because those of us who are responsible for ourselves are paying for people who make foolish decisions with how to spend their own money. They say they cant afford medical insurance yet they CAN afford fancy cars with cool wheels, neon lights underneath, and 1000w stereo systems. Go figure. And those who truly cant afford insurance get 100 pct coverage from the government which again is paid for by the rest of us.

Doctors and medics already have the option of asking for payment up front for their services. I dont see the need for what you propose. Now entertainers on the otherhand really dont have any control of their services and could possibly use some help.

Entertainers do have some control over who they heal now. The /denyservice command.

Alila it's only an added maintence to those that don't tip at all. Let's even say that you make it optional and you could give away heals if you wish the system still would be useful to any service related profession. Also Zarlor entertainers have control of who they DON'T WANT to heal but still don't have control of who they heal enough that they could monitor or put a upfront price on thier services. At least we don't have to deal with AFK players that can give away services 24/7 without even being near thier computer. The idea of it being an availible option still has merit since all the issue you have with the system is it being force in the med center.

Pres Bush changed that law...

I would suggest you look that up it happened recently...
