Forum Post of the Day: Pay to play

Power Word: Fortitude

Oh, sure, we all pay our $15 a month to play, and I'm not referring to that. No, what I'm talking about is something a bit beyond that -- paying people in-game to play with you. Poster Cruc on the general forums complains of an inability to find priests for groups -- and that the last time he was looking for a healer, the only thing he got was an offer to heal the group in exchange for 2 gold per player. As a priest myself, I've occasionally been offered gold in order to heal people -- as if an offer of gold will suddenly make me forget that I have to log off in 10 minutes. So is this just supply and demand at work? Or is requiring more than a standard share of the loot in order to participate just being greedy?
