I've never charged the thought of it is silly.
Hmmm... Pay me to do my Job. Pay the smuggler more or less if he does or does not have to "mezz" something? Cut the TKM more cash for the damage dealing? Hell why don't we pay the TKM 2x everyone else because they will have to run to the target more than the ranged professions?
Loot is loot, rolled or divided as per the group loot settings.
The thought is absurd...

I'm not asking for payment. I'm asking for equal chances to get loot or credits. If I do not have equal chances of those 2, and I'm asked to join a pickup group....I'm going to charge, or I will do something else.
I'm not working for free regardless what system is put in place. I don't do it today, and I'm sure as heck not gonna do it with ability based healing. If I get nothing out of a group, then I'm not going to take part it in.

Congrats to koldbones for posting without reading!! 
I think you will notice that people are happy once the loot system gets set appropriately as I mentioned before. What I do not get is people getting annoyed at me as I won't keep them alive while they grab a pearl make their mills and do not expect me to get some form of guaranteed renumeration. This is what happens if you are a suport class to a melee in a freefor all loot environment. If it is first come first served and you are a swordsman grabbing the chance of a pearl but will die without the doc then you pay him or her, if they're not a mate why should they trust you to give you the cash share when you sell?That said,if you both accept another loot type then why should you pay the doc? You're both there helping each other have the same chance of winning something valuable. It would be good if the person who gets what they want tries to hang around long enough for the stranger they've just teamed up with to get a chance and who knows? you may not just end up with a hunting partner with complementary classes but somebody you are glad to call a mate.

This is percisely what I was talking about in Docs Banding together thread down bellow.
I do think that if you go with a group of people that you do not really KNOW or are not guilded with then it would be fair to say please pay me because....Unlike you I will not be getting the loots associated with combat raids.
Many professions have "skills" that do not cost money to preform (IE Creature Handler) but that doesnt mean they dont charge to mount your pet and train it. Now they dont charge an arm and a leg but hey they do charge.
The only thing that really has me going Wait is yes doctors traditionally charged for services...but did combat medics in turn I say No to that...as a Combat Medic I never charged to throw my heals and poisons... so I guess we have a serious issue here- How do we proceed to make money in the game?

Missions for one....and if you going in a Pickup group, ask the leader to set the loot to Random. Otherwise don't waste your time. I for one think it's very stupid to charge to group....***UNLESS***You get nothing in return (ie loot or mission credits).

I agree- I mean if I did charge it would be under the assumption that I wouldnt loot nor get credits....mission credits of 300credits dont count much in thebulkof things. Maybe it will just be that Said doctors will stick with their guild mates....
I dont know but the idea of it all is a stress for sure LoL....

The whole thing is different..
.for one CMs can now res as well just with a longer Sickness time.
The doc will buff just a different type of buffs and one i am not sure on how it works...waiting for more info from some testers....and they will heal wounds and they are the only ones who can do this.
Docs will not craft.
