I generally don't advertise, I wait and see who is looking in /ooc, and I then send them a tell. I port those who are needing it for a CR, and those under level 20 for free, and refuse to accept a donation from them, even if offered. When I am porting and/or available for a port, I take off my /roleplay tag, so people can see that I'm a druid. I often get random tells.

As far as income: I get anywhere from 10 to 100 per port, per person. I NEVER tell people a price. I also have been stiffed from time to time. Sometimes its the person telling me up front they have no money (I'm ok with that. I've been there myself) Sometimes they let me port them and then just run off and say thanks. (That's just rude). The average amount of the tip is between 40 and 50 plat, although it depends on the area and the time of day.

During peak hours, less need for porters, and there are lots advertising their services. I often go /roleplay and go get xp during that time, and/or camp something. During non-peak hours, its not uncommon to earn 500pp per hour or so, depending on how long I can play.

I guess I may as well keep leveling then and just port when asked for one. People are telling me that donations are usually HIGH if asked for a port to Skyfire.

I guess I'll be able to make more money at 49 anyway if I feel like farming for something. Maybe I'll find a day when frenzied ghoul isn't being camped round the clock.

Wouldn't fuck with porting until you get to 49-ish. Then you can do some KC solo while raking in fat stacks. Ejacs are where the money is at.

I would NOT recommend this camp as your cash crop. Not only is it rare to get a frenzied to spawn he might not even have the sash. Plus being a druid it is a harder camp to hold due to indoor dungeon area.

Your easy money is HBC in MM or Jboots in OOT. I'm sure there are a couple other options, however these are the 2 that tend to spawn decently and have a good drop rate. Plus both of these items move pretty quick.

I'm gonna farm whatever items I can for a Pally, HBC and Diamondine Earrings at least.

I doubt I'll go past 49. Hell, getting through 30 was a major pain.
