So yes, please. Ask the sprouts before you send them a FC invite ^^/ Those invites can be just as intrusive as the RMT spam, believe it or not.
Yeah, it's basically this on Zalera, when I was running around without an FC for a while I'd get one every once and a while just out of nowhere, sometimes I'd decline and I'd get another from the same folks immediately.

Like c'mon, if you want to invite someone bad enough to hit them with 2 invites the very least you can do is say 'hi', right? Take em out to dinner , woo em just a bit. Doesn't have to be like a rigorous screening process, but something.
