I don't expect to port anywhere until 10p or so is pocket change. Even 10p is being cheap, but I wouldn't expect it's worth a mid-20's druid/wizard time for any less.

I call 20pp the norm. There are times when I don't have that much on me though and also times when I tip more.

It looks like im walking! Only lvl 8 with about 19pp (just upgraded to leather armor bought from a vendor). Found a Split Paw tunic on a vendor also for 4pp and a bronze bracer for 7pp! Once I hit lvl 9 I was going to try to do the Cure for Lempeck quest for the Shinning Star of Light so I am Qeynos bound with a stop over at Misty Thicket.

Thanks for the feedback.

I tip 25pp as a ranger, my main is a druid.

I don't charge people for ports but if they want to donate im more than willing to take free money but I probably port for free twice as often as I take a tip.

Agreed. As a wizard, I never charge for ports; but accept and greatly appreciate the tip :]

Im cheap as hell because I can't solo anything decent. I usually offer a free corpse drag or lock pick for ports/rezzes.

It's very rare that I /auction or /ooc for a port, but when I do I offer 40pp minimum. Most of the time I just make the run and don't bother people.

I guess it's just a personal thing, but it bugs me when I see people shouting 'WTB Port to Lavastorm from Sro' or something like that. I guess I'm old fashioned and used to taking care of things myself.

It depends on how badly you need a port. I do 50pp for "I could walk if I wanted" to 200pp for "get me the hell there now".
