As a cleric, I rarely had to 'pay' for ports. Most wizzies/druids did them on the house especially if they were porting me to rez someone. Invariably, if they charged I'd find their corpse soon enough and I'd rez them for free just like always. Funny thing, they never charged me after that lol.

Funny Rez story:

I get a tell one night:

Darwyn: Dude, run to the ring.

I was in some godforsaken zone, I don't even remember... I trot off to the druid ring and Greymaan appears with a naked Darwyn.

Me: Dude, you're naked
Darwyn & Greymaan: Don't ask....

We port to Misty Thicket.

Me: Dude, Misty?
Darwyn: You can't tell ANYONE about this.
Greymaan: Man, you can't keep stuff like this quiet.
Me: WTF?

We run down to the RV zone tunnel and there lays a Darwyn corpse.

Me: Ok, if you want a rez, I want an explanation.
Darwyn: Dude, no.
Me: Ok, gating.
Darwyn: sigh, Ok, we were porting out and I started a nuke on the guards, I mistimed the nuke and it went off WAY too early, hit the guard and he killed me before the port went off...happy?
Me: ....
Me: ....
Darwyn: You gonna rez me now?
Me: Can't see tears blocking eyes
Darwyn: Tears?
Me: laughing pain face and ribs
Darwyn: It's not that funny
Greymaan: Yes, yes it is.
Darwyn: Hush!
Me: can't breath
<time passes>
Darwyn: Ok, it's been like 10 minutes, get with the rezzin
Me: Wait, a minute longer
Me: Ok casting, I can see again, whew, that hurt
Darwyn: DIAF
Greymaan: Ok, porting....want to try that again Dar?
Darwyn: omg stfu
Me: Don't die zoning to Freeport or anything
Darwyn: OMG I shoulda eat the death.
Greymaan: You couldn't, someone would have noticed you were 49.
Me: OMG You lost a level? HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH
Darwyn: ...
