Shit like this results in an automatic “No Tip” from me.
I've started to do that. If I don't see 10-20% options, I've started doing no tip--even if I would have tipped more.
It irks me.
They'd done some data analysis and I guess if you show higher percentages people just click them. So I am bringing it back to reality with my 0%.
Many people habitually click the lowest option, so they made the lowest option outrageously high. Fuck tips, I always go for a flat zero.
Custom tip > -100%
If the system is shitty enough to allow negative tips then I would also think it might be shitty enough to do something like treat it as unsigned and add a 4,294,967,196% tip.
