You know, I actually think that you have been quite unfortunate.
The people that has had an issue with my gear and cause trouble about it is in one hand for me and I played FFXI for 6 years - Or maybe I was just so 1337 :P (lol just kidding!) But I am rly sorry that you have had ppl pestering you, it's never nice. Maybe that's why it would be great to have it either on or off.

At any rate, I have grown self-conscious about examining people because I get distracted very easily and so I OFTEN go to examine someone then close it before I look through the gear -- only to open it again -- and close it before I finish -- only to examine them a third time to finish it. @_@ I do that all the time and I feel really bad about it.
Omg I did that too, I still do... And for this reason I completely understand why people want it away... lol
However... this has also led to some funny conversations with the person I was examining. Communication is the key to most of the issues to be honest. A quick "omg sorry I examined you so many times but I love the jacket you're wearing and I wonder how you got it" erases all the spams in the world.
