Is there a different tipping etiquette for staying in restaurants for a long time?

I like to go to restaurants to study. I wouldn't consider myself a burdensome client because I'm just quietly reading notes and what-not. I generally leave about a 25-35% tip, but you'd also have to consider that my total check is generally less than $15, that I'm there for at least four hours and that the waiter keeps coming by to refill my drink.

What would be good tipping etiquette in cases like these?
 
typically you would want to tip a little more if the restaurant is full because that would make up for a table the waiter would have otherwise had- also, all that free soda they bring you.
