Nor I Nisha!

I’ve said this in other threads, but I’ll say it here too. I have no trouble gifting an entire collection if someone needs a particular item like flying time. I enjoy sending complete collections to people and wish I could figure out who would like what. Opal is easy - I’ll send her any items I have from the hypnosis collection, whether I have just one or not. I’m happy to support her in her Candyworld obsession! I haven’t had to craft that collection yet for a quest, so I can wait to do it. I have all the beans I need! But she’s the only person I’m aware of that has a WL that revolves around the same items (mostly) that has offered us a reason why it’s like that. If there are others, I’ll support them when I understand why they always ask for the same things. By all means, take Opal’s example and tell us.

I’m of the school that people can ask for whatever they want and I will gift it or not. I don’t object to anyone asking for any number of items from a collection, so long as it’s not their permanent wish list. I don’t object to people asking for craftable fixers when they need them - I ran out of flasks, flowers and runes on occasion when I was first playing too, and still can. If I have them and someone needs them, I’ll gift them. But I prefer to gift people who need things, so if an item has a permanent place on your WL, I’m likely to skip you and gift it to someone who needs it, not someone permanently completing the same collection over and over again. And I just don’t believe that someone never has enough items to craft their own fixers - ever. I learned to pick and choose the collections I cashed in; you can’t cash them all in.

I don’t think people who swap out items on their WL with new ones when they receive the old ones are greedy. To me, it’s an affirmation that the item was received and they don’t need it any more, but they can use something else. If I’ve got it, I’m happy to send it. Sometimes I run out of things and need to ask for CI’s to stock up too. And if a WL is empty, it tells me someone is doing okay in the game and doesn’t need anything at the time.

I don’t keep track of who sends me what. I don’t gift CI for CI But if I have it and you need it (and I don’t at the moment), I’ll gladly send it, even if I only have one of it sometimes. I try to pay it forward and, if you’re asking for a pass and I happen to have a collection for it, I’ll send it. I regret that I can’t always thank people for the sets and CIs they send - oft times because I have so many generous friends and others because I accidentally hit accept all. I’ll also send things out on a whim, or because I think someone can use something more than I can. And I hope people don’t condemn me for the way I gift.

But as I’ve also said before, that’s just me. Play the way you play. I won’t unfriend someone over the way they run their WL or the way they gift CI’s.
