Not sure if you're directing these comments at me, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume these were general comments.

All these tipping schemas are just "like whatever." I understand you can't be a ridiculously huge tipper if you're playing for a living, but it should be a personal choice based on the dealer's merit and whether you appreciate them.

You should also tip and encourage dealers and floors who obviously care about poker and want to do a good job and improve themselves.
