Woman banned for bad tipping

it depends on what you consider a
"fair" wage. I, for one, would not be a sever for minimum wage.

ps. your example doesn't apply It was not an example of eliminating tipping and paying servers a fair wage. It was an example of keeping the entree price the same, keeping the server pay the same, and including the tip on the bill.

if you eliminate tipping, you need to add 15-20% to the price of the entrees, and guarantee that this extra amount is going to the server. ah! but which amount? ( I usually get 20%, sometimes more, sometimes less.) also I DO think service would fall off. I worked with one waitress who grabbed all the parties of 6 or more she could, knowing she was automatically getting 18%. then she didn't have time to give these patrons good service. why do I care? because it reflects on the restaurant.

actually, that thread is ONLY a tipping "info" thread. no opinions allowed, or discussions about the merits of tipping/not tipping.
the only things you can discuss are:

tipping is optional at DW, unless
you are a party of 6 or more, in which case an 18% tip will be added(even at buffets).

that's it in a nutshell. about the only discussion is when people try to say they are not a party of 6 or more because they are paying seperately. they are informed that if they are at one table, they are one party, regarlelss of separate checks. one poster was thinking of sitting at 2 dif. tables, hoping to be seated at the same time, and near each other... all to avoid an 18% tip! can you imagine sitting a a table in between them?

That would explain why this thread already dwarfs that one in spite of the other one being open longer.
