Thread: Wrong to charge for a res?
I think NO rocks...
Been playing since release... know how many times I have sent a tell to a doc for a rez? never... if they aren't in my group/guild and in the area... I dont even bother asking... not because I think for a sec I would be turned down or that I dont have enough creds to cover it... but because I dont want to inconvienence another player to come res my dumb/carless ass somewhere...
Charge away if you are in the immediate area... why? because if your in the immediate area, chances are that person/group is honing in on your hunting anyway.. and if your not in the area... 10k-50k doesnt really cover the loss of time and hunting spot... well maybe 50k covers it, but 10k? thats one mission... if it's going to take longer to res then to complete a mission it isnt worth it... and I aint no motha theresa neither!
Any group I hunt with gets stims and rezzes and cure poison/disease free. They allow me to pull missions my template would never be able to touch. If I like the group, I might even buff for free.
Guild gets all my services free, but hell, that's cause when I send a waypoint about 950+ OQ/PE/DR fungus, next day, I get 500k of the stuff dropped in my supply house. I get Uber herbivore/avian free (up to a certain amount) and discounts on anything I want above and beyond that.
If I feel generous, I'll come and TRY to rez you. I might ask for money, I might not. If yer a tool, you get charged. If you blow up my screen with /tells, you'll get charged and added forevermore to my /addignore list. If you yell at me cause I died 4x trying to get yer stupid AZZ from Ft. Tusken, and then yell at me cause you don't believe that there is such a thing as a Rez Timer, I might just /duel you and disease all yer blue stats... Yeah I'll die (I mean, comeon, look at my template and race) but I'll laugh all the way to the cloning center about you walking around with no blue stats whatsoever.
If you are a fellowhealer and have helped me learn the trade, find waypoints, hunt, etc.... I'll travel across the universe for you.

Nice to know there are at least 2 PA's that cool out there. I'm in the other one 
Count me in with the ranks of charging for a res.
The first hour after getting my Master Doctor Iwas pinged by three different players that wanted me to find them in the wilderness to res them - they forgot to insure their armor, they each told me. I learned quickly that day to make myself unsearchable and to pull down the Master Doctor title when I don't want to be bothered.
The only time I will res a player for free (that is not in a mission group with me), is to help reset buffs when they are buying a set of buffs from me. Even then, some players are kind enough to tip for the res on top of the buffs.

Since that didnt go the way i planned. I was in the geno lab the other day doing the missions, had my master doc tag on as always. I am soon Spammed with like 10 tells asking for a res... Now me Im not the strongest doctor out there so i would have to risk my ass to go res them in some incredible large mob.. So i make a reply and ask for 10k.. Now most of them were more then happy to pay.. Considering getting rebuffed the drive the wounds.. they would save money. But a few people just blew up and flipped out about asking money for a res. What do you think, i dont want to be the only doc to charge to res someone. If i am the only doc to charge i will just stop ressing.So theres the vote /charge or /no
/charge
It's a game. . . charge what you want and have fun. If you want to charge and you have the skill they either pay or rot.
Personally I wouldn't charge but that's just me.

I was selling a holoa couple ofweeks ago, and this guyasks how much and I told him my price and he said that's way to much and that blah blah blah they are worthless and he knew a guy selling them for a lower price. So i asked him how much he had and he said he had as much as this other guy was selling them for hehe. Needless to say I told him to go buy it from him, and the funny thing was for the next few weeks everytime I went into coronet Ifound him constantly spamming that he was buying a holo and offering that same dumb low price that the "other" guy was selling it for. If I was so expensive it should have been easy for him to buy it at the price he thought was fair right? Basically when you hear people complaining it's b/cthey have no sense, or no money. I'm much more likelyto go downin my price if someone gives me agood offer, butif some idiotis just complaining and telling me I'm ridiculous thenthat doesn't help him much, probably what would help him a little more is to use his time to do a few more missions instead of complaining about prices.
