How much money in general can a porter make a day on average?

Let's say a Lv40 Druid spends 3 hours a day doing nothing but porting people around, offering his/her services in EC. Ends up making a port every 15 minutes. How much would he/she make in average assuming modest donations?

I recently made it to level 40 on my druid... My advice is you'll be happier thinking of yourself as a transportation service provider rather than a plat generator. I ooc "Porting for donations" and always SoW them right away and then hit the port spell button the instant I'm grouped with my passenger. After we arrive, I always thank them and then either wave or salute whether they donate or not. Only a very few folk don't realize that it is just common courtesy to say "thank you" before running off.

Most folk donate 40 or 50 plats. So I would consider it more than satisfactory to donate 80 or 100 plats for a two port trip. The most I've received is 350pp and it is not uncommon to receive 100pp for a single port.

I like the one plat per level suggested donation and say so if I'm asked. No matter how twinked, for example, I think 12pp for a porting a level 12 is appropriate.

Always respond to pleas for "port for CR"! People remember.

Porting is second nature for us druids! ...and fun too!
