Ok, i've never really posted to the flameboard till now, but I just need somewhere to rant, and throw a tantrum ^^;... logged in this morning and got bombarded with tells while I'm afk for tele's and a raise, everyone was nice, but one person, and it totaly killed my good morning...
Did you all know that whm's true duty isn't to heal things and keep our partys alive? Infact, it's to be personal servants for anyone who needs us on the drop of a hat.
Lately our true jobs are taxis or raisers for partys other then our own. Don't get me wrong, I'll be happy to tele people if I'm not busy. Also if I'm not in a hurry, I'll go raise people in the same zone as me if they ask... *Ask my freinds about this ^^;... They've gotten annoyed before at my kindness when we've been doing things* but if I'm really busy, I'll send you a tell back with a basic (I'm sorry, I'm busy now.)
Honestly, what's going on? People are yelling at me while I'm in xp partys, because I won't disband and teleport them, then go back to my party. Or stop in the middle of a ZM and run 3 zones away and raise3 someone.
*Sigh.* Yes, it's understandable for low level players in the dunes who are just starting out in the game, but, here's the worst part, the majority of players who take their time to rant and rave at me in tell are over level 65.
I've been getting 1-5, sometimes more, angry tells because I won't teleport people, I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, I simply say "I'm sorry, I'm busy doing (whateva) right now, I can teleport/raise you in about so many minutes if I can though..."... and for some reason, lately I've been met with rude comments, even a few rants, on how horrible it all is to get a tele. "What kind of whm are you, don't even teleport." "Are you a noob? Do you even have your teleport spells?" "i bet your a gilbuyer, I offer 20k for a raise and u wont take it" Remind me to pester you guys next time you're in sky farming for items, and I want you to do a random task for me.
Here's a quick example: I'm sitting in bastok, trying to level my alchemy... I've got a full inventory of crafting supplys, and I've got an /sea message saying "Leveling Alchemy, Party: X, I'm sorry, I'm busy." About 20 minutes into crafting, I get a tell from someone asking for a teleport-holla. I simply respond, "Sorry, Busy" and they procede to go off on me for not tele'ing them, complete with cusswords and singling me out, acting like I'm the cause tele's are 1k-2k now instead of 500g and 1k. I'm thinking to myself, *this guy's gotta be either 12 years old, or a total noob.*... So, I do a /sea... rank 8, level 63 pld.... *sigh*
So to that pld and anyone else who's sent angry tells, sorry I can't remember your name, because honestly I didn't care enough to write it down, but whoever you are, yes, I admit, It's my fault. All of it. I've single handedly manipulated the teleport prices, and cause you to have to always wait 20-30 minutes now. So, I'm sorry.
Ya, I know it's bad for some reason... Why? I dunno, greedy pplz? Lazy whms? Just plain busy whms? *shrug* I'm sorry you have to wait 30 minutes to find a tele... don't take it out on me, if you want to whine, please do so here, because nothing kills a fun party like getting yelled at by a random person because I won't drop everything to do what they want.
I myself know that tele'ing is really bad these days, I tried leveling my thf, and it took me 20 minutes to find a tele-dem, and I only found one because I offered 2k, for something that should be 500g.
Anyway, I'm not trying to tell anyone not to ask me for a tele, or raise anywhere, I'll even be happy to raise or tele if I'm just sitting in Jeuno waiting for my static, or a LS event, or just plain bored. Just stop the angry tells, it's annoying. If you're really this displeased with the whms these days, go buy a dang teleport-whatever ring... level your whm, I don't care. Walk. Take an airship. Choco. In that 20 minutes of /shouting for a tele, you could have been there already...*shrug*
/End rant.
With that outa my system, hope yall have a good day, and thanks for listening to my rant, n' sry for my crappy spelling/grammar >.>;

Teles are worth much more than 500g these days. With the 500%+ inflation we have seen, teles should be 2.5k-5k depending on which you want. 500 was a good price back in the day, but if you apply current inflation gains, they are only worth 100 gil in the old system. That just isn't worth anyones time. That is also why it is hard to get a tele anymore. Everyone is earning more gil because of inflation on all their ah sales, but they are unwilling to pay whms more for teles. I make a habit of teleing anyone I see offering 1k+ for a tele now just to encourage a price increase.
