If it's added into the bill, then pay it. If it's not, then I definitely agree with not tipping if you don't want to.

Over loading them with a large group.... Lol you're telling me they would rather not have a large group? They make money by the amount of people coming into the restaurant ordering food. I have taken 40-50 kids to eat during season and they don't ever charge us gratuity. If they did we wouldn't go there. I do however make each kid leave $2 which equals a pretty good pay day for the waiters.

Are you serious? Of course they'd rather have multiple tables with different cook times as opposed to a table with 40 ****ing kids...

They probably groan and curse every time they see you enter with your 40 little heathen brats.

Actually, they offered us a better price than normal and I was complimented multiple times on how well behaved of a group I had. Even had another customer stop at my table to compliment them. I'm fortunate to have some well behaved "heathens".

On a slower week night, I would prefer a large group. On a Friday or Saturday when I can keep a full section and turn tables over quickly, I would rather have the smaller tables. Large tables (>12 people) rarely tip more than 20%, whereas I average more than 20% on small tables. I have only placed automatic gratuity on one large party, and that was because I was advised to do so by a member of the party.
