I generally don't like those who try to skip the line. But even I have my price. If i'm asked how much to skip the line i'll generally reply "100k ontop of normal price." You would be surprised how many people will pay 110k/112k to not have to wait. Besides, who can pass up 100k for 1.5 min of buffin.

You should reply 10k to everyone in front of you and 50k to me

I know you're kidding, but that's a great idea.

I don't understand...what is the point of having a line if you let people cut it all the time?


Maybe we should just start buffing people in the order of how much they pay... highest payment goes first, and so forth...

From a monetary point of view, 30k equals a Janta mission on Dantooine, so that's 3 minutes? 4 minutes out of a total of 3.30 hrs?


The market we have is offer and demand. This means the doc can pretty much charge as much as he wants and set the ruleset as he pleases. If you don't like the offer, don't buy.

Being now almost master doctor - this is just greed and a lousy sense of fair play.


When I buff - its first come first serve.


I sure as hell am glad I do not play on any of you greedy bastards servers. What a freakin attitude.

If they bother to ask for a line cut, I tell em you must pay for everyone ahead of you too. Havent had any takers on it yet, but it has started a few great convos

If they have the money to buy special places in line they by all means i'd sell them a skip, but i don't buff anymore

I personally dont think it is fare as a doc to get extra $$ from someone that just wants to get in front of the line. Doctors who do that arent docs in my opinion. Im the doc that still heals people while waiting for a shuttle

only thing i can say is get ur @$$ back to the end of the line , and if i feel funny i might charge him 500K believe me then soon just tip the normal price then , and wait

but the problem is that to much docs are to damn greedy , there's no need imo but they think it is ,

anyways you just found a greedy doc , who doesnt think about gameplay , was sorry to hee it but nothing much u can do

Actually I agree


I know frightening a Doc agreeing but umm line skipping is Sh**ty in my opinion. But then so is 50k for a buff *shrug* Not everyone you buff is running solo group. Some of them are just trying to get by and grind.


But then I might be a bit soft hearted and well poor *chuckles*

Ahhh yes but my solution to the problemdoes NOTget me ANY extra money, and everyone ahead of that guy would get a free buff for having to wait an extra 10 seconds because havla would be used.... So the greedy doc thing is thrown out the window there, and why would people complain if that guy is paying for their buff? Makes perfect sense to me! All bases covered, all parties happy.

been a doc over 6 months, noticed the premium services appear in last month or 2, dont think its really fair on peeps waiting inline, and never offer the service myself. I think the idea sucks personally.
