Why not just solve the problem and join a guild or make one yourself. Do some recruiting! Use a VOiP program like Teamspeak or Ventrilo....That is what my team does...it makes for alot better gaming and we take care of each other...we dont split costs, we do share profits. Bottom line...dont go into a business deal with folks you dont know...

I like that Dougal So if you go to underworld or fissure every party member would have to make the offering. Thus the larger the party the larger the offering. SO party of eight 8k cost... 1k from each member... party of two 2k cost, 1k from each member. and have the spirit take it from each not gather it to one person to give. if everyone does not have it... then the spirit refuses until everyone has the 1k to enter.

But to make it more interesting... Have the drops rated on how much was offered... thus Ecto and shards and gold items ect... ONLY drop for large parties because that was the max offering... I actually REALLY REALLY like this idea. this gives the scamming WaMos a good boot size enima. If anything it will promote more Full parties to go to bonus areas.

Less exciting but more practical, have the spirit automatically take the % of the offering from each party member automatically. And if someone does not have the % of gold required entry is not allowed, until they do.

so a wamo Necro party would have 500 taken from each at offering. 1k/2
a 3 ranger 1 mo group would have 250 taken at each offering. 1k/4
a true balanced party of 8 that actually plays the bonus mission would have 125 gold taken at offering. 1k/8

this also serves as a message system to ensure everyone is ready to go as the message box would pop up saying is it ok to take 125 gold to enter the underworld. clicking ok implies that you are ready to go. Clicking no stops the transaction and the offering is cancled.

Why does hundreds of people then stand in ToA looking for players or parties? Players don't want to start or join guilds just so they can feel secure when joining a FoW or UW party. Okay, it is a good idea but it just doesn't work. I've tried but failed misserably several times, you have to see one thing from differnt point of views to know how something works and not works.

I don't think players in ToA who say they can't afford 125 or 500 is gonna taken seriously by anyone, and then get kicked. I don't think that new players are gonna belive them either. I don't think new players can't afford it. I think alot. Anyway, report one, 2 more show up. To get rid of scamming you gotta put hard against hard, okay, reporting someone is kinda hard but it takes along time before anything happens and you have to have some kind of proof. I say in with more systems that makes scamming real hard or impossible. If we honest players come up with systems that work somehow to prevent scamming then Anet doesn't have to bother with reports of scammers to look into, that gives them more time to develop and make an even better game.

yes they will, and that we don't want, because even if you don't seem to support this, you surely are against scamming, which I realy hope. So even if you ARE careful, you will get scammed some day.

I never stated either way whether I support the even distribution of the entry fee....in fact, I do support it!!! I think it should be a flat rate per player regardless of group size. What that price should be, I dont know. That particular area of the realm is not for the faint at heart...so if you are gonna play it, you better be ready to pay it!!!

Joker, I'll just call him a douche to reffering all asians as these online cafe sweatshop koreans. If your going to talk about a select farmer race as you were trying to say , lay off the asian word.
