Tips(monetary) for Tanks

I've seen people advertising as a healer or a tank for a queue before but I've never see anyone ask for some sort of gil tip at the end of a run.

Do, however, tip your red mage for every time they have to scrape you off the ground.

What if the RDM's LB3 is the reason they need to be scraped off of the ground?

I don't even feel that I should have to tip waiters to do there jobs. So why would I tip a player to do there job?

Then your tears of salty blind rage are payment enough.

PSA if anyone was confused by this or whatever:

1) You can not trade in dungeons/instances, so it is impossible to tip inside anyway with random people.
2) It is against ToS to offer services for gil in the Party Finder (aka "Mercenary Work")
3) It is NOT against ToS to "hire" someone to join your party. Obviously you'd be offering to pay and should tip in this situation.
4) This is most likely a joke thread anyway; I've never even heard of this as a thing.

Wait...you are not allowed to offer service for gil in party finder? I thought that was okay as long as it is not a real money transaction. People advertise to pay for clears and sell other things in game for gil transactions. I swore it was allowed as long as it is not real money.

I found it oh my gosh I forgot about that in the wall of text that is the tos. You can not advertise to get paid to give someone a clear but THEY can advertise to give you money for clear. My mind is officially blown at how weird this is. How....what they are literally both the same thing and this is common in many mmos. Unless scamming is an issue but if that is the case I swore there was something in the tos about altering the deal when making a contract with a player to give them gil for service. You can get action taken if you do not pay up or do not fufill the contract. That I did remember.

It was allowed until very recently. In October of last years they changed the rules. You can offer to pay for help but you cannot offer a service or clear for any sort of reward.
