For some strange reason, I sat and read this entire thread with all the things about Druids, Shamans, Wizards, etc. People need to keep in mind that noone forced them to make the character that they did. If you think youre gonna want ports, make a porting character. For buffs, make a buff character, etc., but NEVER act like anyone owes you anything. On the same hand, if someone does you a favor, show your gratitude, whether it be by way of pp, buffs, or even just a kind word of thanks. I just happen to be a 52 Wizard. My portal fragments cost me just a bit over 1pp each. I TL for free much more than I do for donations, but if I run a bit low on funds, I may auction ports for donations. I never dictate how much that donation will be. That is up to the grateful or ungrateful individual being ported. At the same time, an abusive person WILL be remembered much longer than the one that donated or gave you that cool buff. It's kinda sad, but it seems that the greed and rudeness continues to grow on a daily basis. I, personally, agree that kindness will come back many times over, thus I have no problem helping people in need. Damn shame some cant grow up enough to form a solid reputation for their character. I pattern Sav after my RL beliefs. Perhaps others should do the same. Just my 2 cp......(TL'ing for bout the next 10 mins while I'm here!!). Donate or not, its up to YOU, but is surely not required!
