weeks i have watched the wishlist, something needs to limit there request. when i see players asking for multiple items. to me it changes from wishing to begging. 1 or 2 items is acceptable but not this 20 or 30 list. you are making the beggers at the towers looking good right now

I don't go there, but I have noticed that since the Vikings are not posting a official thread, wishlist pictures are starting to appear in signatures again. I guess they aren't getting the views or items, they use to now that all the individual posts clog up the board.

Wish list pictures always appeared in the signatures, if not pictures links to pictures. I honestly think it shouldn't be there. It should just be a contest section.

hmm I thought they stopped people from posting wishlist pictures in their signatures when they created the size limit. In fact I thought that was the reason we got a size limit because of those pictures, so many complained we had to scroll by all of it to read stuff..... :lol:

Thats what I thought. I just ignore anything unpleasant like wishlists, and stick my head in my happy, happy, sand. :lol:

I'd agree with you. And I gift A LOT. But I never gift people with a 30 item wish list. Ever.
I gift people who I feel like need or deserve it.

I'd be completely embarrassed if I had to post a picture of 25 items to get stuff.
I'd be more embarrassed if someone in my household did it.
You don't go around in real life asking people to give you shoes or hats or wigs
so why do it in a game? I think it's in really really poor taste.

I've asked for two things in my lifetime on Yo. 1) a celtic cross when dad died (which apparently
are so rare that few have them) I didn't get that. and 2) angels.. any angels.. hoards of angels
for a doctor who themed group of rooms I am doing. (I never got any of those either)

I'm not complaining that I didn't get them but I'm saying I watch for people like me who
don't beg on the daily when I go gifting.

And all their lists are the same...

If it was one of my kids I'd take their right to play Yo away from them. They better not let
me catch them begging other players for stuff. Ever.

I have seen postings regarding a wish list but never quite understood what that is.... I always felt we payed, played & earned what we got & sometimes our friends & neighbors would leave a small gift at our home, in the message box. I am perplexed :roll: :?: :roll: :?:

I agree.. There are a lot of greedy people on this game.

I have posted a wish list I must admit, however, it did only consist of 3 - 4 items. That being said, I'd never expect those items to be handed to me without any sort of coin payment/trade. People work hard for the items they have and people begging for them all the time can be really annoying.

Good friends are like stars. You don't always see them, but you know they're always there.

I don't enjoy seeing those lists and don't want to gift so I stay away.

That said, if the players posting 20-30 items on the wishlist thread enjoy their ability to do so, who am I to judge? I am not going to gift them, but dreaming that they may some day be gifted may bring them joy. I say let them have their joy and just stay away if it isn't your cup of tea. Just my point of view. :)

I would have gladly helped you out when your dad died if I had had the cross. It is a shame you did not get one.

I say listen to how you feel and stay away from the things that bother you, tink. *nodding* Its a different thread than it used to be, and I share your desire to find people that are FUN to gift. I have started adding surprise gifts in when I trade with people! I just like experiencing their surprise reactions. :D

Every time I post about wish lists I get yelled at for being mean! I am thrilled some of you share my opinions about them. This game needs to discourage parasites
And leaches.
I give but not to those who beg or tell me what to give them.

I went there once years ago and the self entitlement made me sick, Ive never been back.
I love gifting people but only if they are genuine and aren't expecting/demanding it.
Its just a different way of begging...

I agree Wingy, it isn't my thing, but hey if others want to make them fine with me. I just dont want to have to scroll though signatures that have picture wishlists in them when I am in discussions.....
