Try tracking their progress for a week or so (both level and rep, maybe even XP since it's harder to level up at 140). If they appear to be very active, then I'd drop them. It sounds like they have added too many friends to handle. If they aren't playing much, I'd give them a little more time in case they're on vacation, sick, or whatever (although I honestly cannot justify tar since sending a better fixer doesn't take any longer).

I have also put up very easy CIs on my WL to see if any of my non-board friends will share with me. Even though my friends from here are super quick to give me those CIs, I don't see the harm since they're easy ones to get; plus, I can use the extras to help lower level friends.

If they don't bother to send even an easy CI, then I'd let them go. It's not as if there is a shortage of good friends here!

One other thing you may want to consider (and some here may not like this suggestion), but you could put WhyTar in your name (e.g., EmmaWhyTar). Then see if they keep sending tar or send something else.

As a general rule, I'm in agreement with Beazus. If you don't enjoy them, then let them go. But I also understand how hard that can be when the friend used to be more thoughtful when gifting. So I tend to give those players a chance, and if that really does not work out, then I will drop them. It's hard to do in the moment, but I feel relieved later.
