I'm not going to be aimming this at all medics cause i was one, but lately I walk into a medcenter and ask to be healed I see people tumbleing and getting healed but I get nothing I can sit there for a long time and not bet a heal some times. I know alot of medics are nice but I send this to the medics who are doing it just to get the holo done. If you see a wounded person and they ask to be healed heal them please

Haha, yea i was fortunate to master the prof before it became so centered. I hate how (on my server at least [Shadowfire]) everyone has lost what the game used to be about. I've walked into med centers with my Master Combat Medic title out and asked for wound heals because i obviously don't need the xp and they've tried to charge me for it. The fun parts of the game are going away to quickly with some of the new people who might just be starting the game, bringing over ideas and attitudes from other games. It's just as much the vets though . . . that's for a different forum though, thanks for hearing me out.

For a long time medics have not gotten any respect at all. Peoplerepeatedly ask in tells for healing and do not even say thank you, let alone tip afterwards.
I have been a master medic since around july 7th 2003. I have only asked for money to heal wounds less than 5 times. I have been stiffed every time. You get a feel for who will tip, and for who will say thanks.
At this ppoint in my career, i would heal for a thanks. Still doesn't happen.
My best advise is.....ask politely...give some sort of hint that you appreaciate the effort that the medic made to hunt down the resources and gain the exp that they do. Say thank you afterwards, or even ahead of time.NO LEET SPEAK AND SPELL OUT EVERY WORD!
A player that can take the effort to say 'Can you help me' instead of 'can u help me' is 20 times more deserving of a heal IMO.
Please instead of plz
I'm sorry you had this problem. Any time I have to do anything that involves sitting in one spot and I don't have to be in front of a crafting station, I head over to the medical center and offer training and healing. Wearing a full set of comp and carring a t21 and not tipping makes you look rediculous.
As an aside.....Crafeters, entertainer and medics do not play to serve you...they play to have fun. Give them a reason to have fun, and things will be better all around.

Heeeeeeyyyyyyyy I thought I was the only one that felt that way. I figured I was just being **edit** or something. Well it is a little **edit**, but you're still right about those players.
Butjustthink of all the time those twelve-year-olds saved by skipping those cumbersome vowels and consonants.
Werd.
