Thread: Wrong to charge for a res?
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
As for how much, that would depend on the danger.

Guild/Group free, everyone else Pays!
Being a Doc isn't easy, never has been. Ingrediants are hard to come by. Do you walk up to a Gunsmith and ask for a free FWG5. Walk up to an architect and ask for a free harvesters. Tools of the trade you pay. If they whine, they can easily be put on ignore.
Price is up to you. Everybodies Danger level is different. Charge for risk and resources.
i totaly agree if its not a guild member, group member or mate then they pay simple as and by the time you have explained to them that they need to /consent youbefore u can res them 7 out of 10 times you will find your self running for your life as well unless you are with afew people who can distract the thing that killed them while you res, if you cant take it down your self first that is.
i think the best way to work is unless its someone you know or a guild mate then they pay for everything from wound heals, buffs and a res - the only time i might not ask for something in return is if theyseem newto the game or its a new char, i just examine them and see what bages, profs they have if they have nothing then i might just do it for free ![]()
i always charge for any service i perform as a master doc. if they complain they just make it easier for me. just another victim of my huge ignore list. lol. even when paid i still consider it a major inconvenience to me to have to run out, find them, then risk my own toons life to rez them. usually i dont even bother with wound healing or state treatment when people ask me to do so. if i ever do those things its just because im either bored or in a good mood and the person didnt ask to have it done. i think the way to address a doctor who's services you are in need of, should be "/tip *insert gracious ammount here* please o master doctor grace me with your hard earned and well deserved power of life giving." if every request came to me like that i would buff, heal, treat wounds, cure states and applaude their courtesy every time.
xarkuhn- no crap takin doc
