This is ridiculous, they earned it, they should have you BEGGING to be ferried...

Real life analogy: sometimes the government makes a policy that you don't agree with, even though it's perfectly legal that they do so. Nothing stops them from making the said policy but people are still going to complain about it. Telling the critics to "don't agree with how stuff are? Run for presidency then" certainly won't help.
The difference here is that the alliance didn't get voted in. They earned their place. It's like saying someone who bought a ferrari should give you rides in it all the time.

Just a point of comment: EVERY Alliance that has problems with ferrying somehow breaks up. I've seen it happen many, many times. I never know why, but it does.

As an Ally of the Luxon and former member of the Crusaders alliance, then Keys alliance, and now our (non-faction devoted) own alliance, I have to say that ferrying and ceasing ferries due to tips is forces me to disregard any and all respect for the Godz alliance.

I ferried thousands of people and didn't earn a cent. If you want MORE tips, then ferry MORE. Not less. Go to the International districts,t here's lots of euros there needing ferries.

Last time I checked it wasn't obligatory for a person to Tip someone.I never Tip anyone.If they want me to pay they have to specifically ask them to pay them for their services.Otherwise it's free.(Mind you,this applies to Video Games.Not real life.If I was given great service by a specific employee I'd give them a tip..oh em gee service..MOER LIEK BUTTSECKS!)

Shantel, I believe it has been stating many times, it has very little to do with tips at all, it is to cut down on leachers that do nothing but leach off of tips and dont do anything proactive for the alliance.

Good luck with this. The depreciation has started and these items will never go up in price significantly again.

im in the dth alliance, i dont think the deep would ever be closed like that as it is not reasonable and if such a occurance was real, people would become quite angry at those who are in the Godz alliance

In all honesty, I never understood why people get so worked up over these two areas. It is the controlling alliances right to say who gets acess and who doesn't. They put in the work to earn that right and everyone else that is complaining should really take a hard look at themselves. To automatically expect something from people who have earned it while you do nothing except for b**tch and moan is a disgrace. Morally and legally speaking, you have no rights to the area unless you are part of the controlling alliance. It really isn't difficult to get an alliance together with the sole purpose of faction farming to gain control. Yes it does take a lot of time to do, but its what you do if you want control. So stop being lazy and put in the time yourselves and quit sponging off of the hard work of others.

I seriously expect to get flamed for this, but I am tired of people whining like children who want things now without putting in any type of effort to earn it themselves.

Not trying to put a damper on your point. But most of them them were thought to have been autistic not dyslexic.

How about we just not stone anyone, okay?

Seriously though, the Godz alliance has a point. I wouldn't want people joining my guild just so they could collect tips. Besides, once more members get their titles than the amount of ferries should go up, right?

I agree with Godz entirely. Only certain people in alliance should earn the right to ferry and the possibility of getting tipped. I see retards in house ferrying all the time and I didnt tip the guy first time I went and he said "OMG IM REPORTING YOU FOR SCAMMING BECAUSE YOU DIDNT TIP" So I gave him one gold to let him know what I thought he was worth. And now because of that one guy, I dont respect the nubz at house.

Welcome to Guildwars Factions, try to have fun....

They dont have to ferry and whether you like it or not, they own the town. Their Rules.

As much it pains me to say this, if you dont like it, maybe you are looking at a wrong game to play.

Edit for spelling.

Seems like that's the only answer for GW problems nowdays.

I can care less who they want to ferry. There are plenty of other places to farm.

And by the time I start to care again, they will be gone and a new set of rulers will be in place.

There doing you a favor,its not there DUTY to ferry you,especially not ingrateful fools that start flaming and insulting to be ferried,you think theyd ferry you with such an ingrateful attitude?I certainly dont hope they do,they can lock it down completely if you ask me,especially keeping the ingrateful folks out might teach them not to take it all for granted.

There is a HUGE difference, favor is gained through victories at HoH, therefore the country has the right to be able to enter UW/FoW while they have favor. HOWEVER this is a gift to all of the people in European servers, not just the alliance that gave them favor.

Luxons owning Cavalon or Kurzicks owning House Zu Heltzer, should let people in for free, the way every place ingame is supposed to be. Instead they leave the alliance to decide, this could cause people to leave, or people to become enraged with the people in these alliances. Ooooooook.... Self Righteous... everyone wants to be rich, you and I are no exception, why blame this guy for wanting to be? You shouldn't, the leaders want to be rich, but if they charge 10k per ferry, it's a totally unfair way of making money, they abuse their power like that, they will be overthrown. No question about it. [/post]
