Your reason was Christmas. You said as much earlier.Quote:

The generosity is appreciated, but it's important to understand and accept that this is not an easy time for everyone and a little consideration and perhaps some forgiveness is in order.

Maybe it is the servers i have presence on, or the time, or my face, but any time I try to get rid of anything by giveaway I usually won't end up getting rid of the thing I tried to get rid off.
And like, few years ago I tried to even giveaway whole FC with small house :'D
No takers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But on positive last note, I still like Pugy Puk minion a lot, my first minion ever and it was given to me by random person in town. And my lastest alt got Trike, which was very nice. The benefactor of that Trike just ran after my sprout face at Roots Lake/South Shroud and /tell'd: "Dino friend!!" -

Sometimes I read replies on threads like this and realize just how miserable some of the MMORPG players are.

I say OP should've move on from replying to people in this forum, there's always that one guy that will get your nerve :)

12-28-2022, 07:13 PMCarin-EriTo be honest, I often give Cookies (with a PM telling them it's a little gift to say welcome to the game as well as a small EXP boost when used before a fight), and the occasional minion I don't need, to brand new sprouts I encounter. I haven't thus far met anyone who didn't appreciate it.Quote:

If the cookies or whatever the OP was traded was paired with religious proselytizing, then I can see why they got reported.

Okay so nobody paid attention to my post where I said the guy was in the wrong entirely and instead are just going to keep hating on OP. Yeah, Great Community BTW indeed. Right even when they’re wrong.

You can't talk like that, with the double "??", insults and stuff and convince people at the same time that you are doing something nice. That you are a nice person. -

Unsolicited advice is treated like a war crime but unsolicited trades are supposed to be a good thing? bruh

12-28-2022, 11:23 PMRanakuRandomly trading with people is not against the rules though, lol. Doing it over and over again after someone told you to stop that is a offense. No gamemaster will warn or even ban you for trading someone cookies.Quote:
