If I ever don't have at least 100pp for a port, I make sure it's alright first or make up the difference with peridots or whatever. People could avoid a lot of dumb bullshit if they'd just state their intentions before the service is rendered.

I always thought using the word "donation" when offering ports was stupid because because 95% of people mean "payment required unless you're a deadbeat." I think the term caught on because it's less greedy-sounding than "porting for plat."
