Everybody who has played a porter has been stiffed by the portee. I was donated 100 gold pieces for a evac to EJ once. I didn't care about the donation but the guy was an epic'd shaman.
He tipped me an EVEN number of gold pieces. Gold pieces a fuckin side, how do you hold on to that last bit of gold pieces and only tip 100?
100 gold pieces for an evac is a joke. I have to stop what I'm doing to run all the way to KC and this greedy bastard tips me gold? And not even all of it? On that day I decided I'm not porting until the tip is in the trade window (retired porter btw and free guild ports always).
And that's my advice to every porter. Sit until they tip. Hell, I may only have 83pp on my character but I'll tip 50p for a port. Because that's just what you do. When a homeless guy comes to your car at red light and scrubs your windshield clean you don't just drive off. You give the man a tip and go on about your business. And not some "all your pennies in the cup holder" tip. You pull out your wallet and tip the guy for his services. It's just that simple.

No, you tell the guy to get a job and drive off.
