And how is that so? If I were playing a druid class, it is soley my discretion if it is mandatory or not, not yours

Just because you wish players would give you free buffs/ports does not mean they should, and your semantics argument is nothing but a petty semantics argument. If someone is porting for donations obviously it means they are trying to make money, not give you free buffs/ports, and I don't think anybody is confused by that
First of all, I do tip when I ask for a port or buffs. Usually 25pp, sometimes 50pp if I can afford it.

Second, if they are trying to make money they should say "porting for a fee of x plat." NOT "porting for donations." Because then the donation isn't a donation, it's a bill. A donation implies an optional handout at the discretion of the client receiving the service, not a mandatory one enforced by the provider.
