i'm in the coronet med center for the past few nights and seem alot of people come and go i usally stay there and make some nice tips and if i make enough to cover me and the crap i have to buy (i really really hate grinding crafting boxs) and not to mention all the stuff just to make it all

but most of the time i get good tips and try to tip the tumblers as much as i can (around 1-3k)

and most of the time if alot of people need xp i'll start my tumbling macro and heal and tumble got 1 4 4 0 in doc tonight and 2 1 0 4 in cm the other nights

i just really hate when i have been there a while and people starting sniping my heals when the tumbler behind me is no being healed

then i just edit my macro to 1 sec and blast away on the tumbler to counterattack the xp drain lol i know its mean and all but it is fun

but i would take healing wounds over tumbling anyday just seems u get more xp from the wounds then tumbling

You know, giving someone strength and quickness buffs just because you dont like that he's making it easier for someone else to get to master doctor than you had it is flat out griefing. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Bendi has it pretty much right on the ball, I love what she said..those of you that whine about how easy it is to get doctor now are pompous, self-righteous, windbags.

Forums like THIS are what makes it easier to get doctor now, you do realise that dont you?!? all the information posted here that maybe you didnt have access too when you had to walk 20 miles through 3 feet of snow to get to the med center without any snow shoes.

I'm a PvPer, I wanted doctor to combat the growing poison epidemic in PvP nowadays, so I did master doctor in 12 hours, and with the knowledge I have now I bet I could do it in 6. I didnt want it to take weeks for me to get back into PvP so with the right forethought I screamed my way through doctor. That is MY right, and if you wanna do it at a snails pace by all means do so, dont try to force your opinion on the rest of us.

As people learn what they are doing they WILL always do things faster, get over it.

All I have to say to those that buff afk tumblers to screw them over is, GROW UP and get a life.

No, you buff them to be a jerk.

Its a form of griefing and you know it.

AFK tumbling isnt like shouting come buy my crap off my vendor every 5 seconds. The only way you'll be spammed by it is if you have the combat window open.

Like I said already, dont try and force your opinionsdown otherpeoples throatsbecause that is much much worse than what they are doing.

sadly i ddint tip my tumbler, he actually tipped me 250k or so...i had just started ont eh server and only done artisan merchant dancer and entertainer and scout...so i had very little money...very little...had enough resources saved from scout to do all thecrafting in medic and doctor...but borrowed money form my tumbler (was actually one of my good friends in my guild) so i could get started with everything...he actually was on vacation at the time...so in the monring he would get on and start tumbling, then when i would get on like 2 hours later, i would start my macro and come back every few hours to refill on stims and get trained...was a good system...sadly he stopped playing a week after that so i havent been able to repay him...but now that ive done 3 elite brawlers and kept master doc...i have a lot of money...well i did...armor recently broke and ran out of buff packs...combined with a low amount of money isnt a good combo

That's sad reasoning. Doctors are well able to make up their own mind what they will do. Just because your neighbor dresses sexy does NOT mean you neglect your wife to go mess with her. "They made me do it" is not a valid excuse. If you want to grief then find a way to grief a doctor that actually doesn't treat patients.

And just because a doctor uses tumblers doesnt mean he doesnt treat patients. I make rounds. I hit the cantinas, most of the time they are are keeping themselves healed, if thats the case I hit the star port and usually find a few there that need wounds healed. After I spend 10 minutes or so there (hoping a shuttle comes in with lots of wounded) then I hit the med center. I wait for wounded and hit a few tumblers while I wait. After a five minutes if no one comes in I make the rounds again.

I tip tumblers, dancers, healers. I tip so many people that I sometimes get asked what I tipped them for.

I don't tip afk entertainers in Theed or Coronet. That's just plain supply and demand. Many other people will give it for free, why pay?

I do definitely tip the afk entertainers in player cities, particularly my own.

Ninja buffing anyone, tumbler or not, is a **edit** move. At least admit you're doing it to mess with someone. Not everybody plays the same way or has the same goals.

I find roleplaying silly, personally, but I never hassle anyone who's doing it and I try to play along a bit if they do it to me.

I also find the notion that all doctors should be this benevolent Marcus Welby type providing service to the world's wounded to be a bit presumptious.

I have a doctor to support my combat character. Others have one to make money buffing. Some are crafters who solely sell medicines.

Others are the roleplayer type who feel it is their duty to sit in med centers and heal people. None are more of a "real" doctor than the other.

I just recently starte the ardious travel to doctor and thanks to a guy in the Theed med center I maxed out my med exp in under an hour we were chatting and I was still healing wounds of the people entering the facility, when I finaly maxed out I tipped him 12K... but for the most part if your AFK then I agree, why tip?

wrong, wrong, wrong. Everytime i've seeen tumblers ( I even saw one in the coronet STARPORT today) they've been spamming TIP ME! TIP ME! BLAH BLAH BLAH

Wedon't need that spammy crap in the med center and tumbling should not be done in a public facility anyway - take that crap to the upper levels of the med center or keep it in yr house, otherwise if and when i see it - you will be buffed - end of story.

and if I see you spamming for tips and yr tumbling - i don't care where you are - you will be buffed - If I could do somthing equivilant to make peoples spams in coronet starport for naught i'd do that too and do it proudly - we have enough spam in this game we don't need 0002 marksman contributing to it

I still don't understand why there's a health/mind drain on tumbling at all anyway .....

These forums are retarded. I clicked "Submit" on my last post and it took me to Silverion's profile. So I figured okay I must have clicked the wrong button. I clicked the back button and hit submit again.... ended back at his profile page. I am thinking okay.... I bet that was a double post. Stupid forums.

I do not have any strong negative feelings about afk tumblers tumbling for credits, nor about those aspiring medics healing them for xp. It isn't the play style I personally favor, but to each their own. What I dislike seeing however is this. One or more afk tumblers in the main room of the med center, surrounded by afk medics healing them.

Wounded players run in and instead of quickly finding a doctor that is ATK to heal them, they run around and ask for heals from those that are not present to do so. Nine times out of ten I'll see them of course, and move over to help them. Worse is when a player slips past, sits amidst the large group of afk tumblers/medics, and escapes my notice because they don't say anything, perhaps using tells to try and get a medics attention.

I remember prior to starting up my doctor the annoyance of coming into a med center to have my wounds tended to, only to find the medics present not willing or able to do so. While some had AFK tags, others did not but did not reply to my says or tells. A vast majority of players run into the larger of the two first floor rooms looking for heals, and as long as the afk tumblers are not in this room I personally could care less about their choiceof how they play the game. When they clog up the primary med center room however, and I see patients go unattended to because of their presence, I find it irksome.

I would request all tumblers do so in the smaller of the two first floor rooms or on one of the higher floors. I think most Docs would leave them alone if they do this, and be appreciative of their consideration. Those that continue to do so in the main first floor room simply end up on my list ofplayersnot to buff in the future, and may receivemy lesser quality strength and quickness buffs then and there.
