Gift 4 gift
 
So I got a suggestion because basically every g4g is a scam you give them a gift then get blocks but I got a suggestion to stop it. You know during Easter how they have the egg trading you can trade and egg for an egg you pick an egg they pick an egg then bam you can accept or not instead of egg just do that with gifts it will make it so player won't get scammed. I know there is secret Santa but you can only do it like 10 times a day and it takes about 5-15 min to get my gift. Or this won't be added cause dusty likes his secret Santa $10 gift money :3 I know I like having a secret Santa but I just don't like being scammed or seeing people be scammed thanks for ready bye :3 well time to go get gralats almost to my 50k XD

People are going to say the usual, "just don't g4g if you don't want to get scammed", but I like that idea, hope it gets implemented next year.

I think the idea of gifting was more for your friends rather than trading with randoms so there isn't some sort of system in place

Howl 12-16-2016 02:26 AM

imo it makes it more fun meeting people and talking to them rather than just sending them a gift trade request, I've met so many nice people because of the trust system.

Cooldog45 12-16-2016 02:31 AM

^ and I have met so many greedy people but the only person I've ever met that I didn't get scammed from was from 2 years ago I've spent about 15k on scams I have like a full list of scammers

Eugeen 12-16-2016 03:08 AM

This hasn't been added cus it's about giving not receiving

Fair point. Adding it would promote having to receive something for the gifts you give. Opinion changed.

Springy 12-16-2016 03:27 AM

But what if you had the option to trade a n d gift.

Milo 12-16-2016 04:01 AM

The idea is about gifting not receiving. Adding the same trade system that exists for Easter contradicts that idea. People do g4g with others knowing the risk of getting scammed and get pissed when it happens because of greed. Then there's secret Santa if you really want something back

Raeven 12-16-2016 04:02 AM

The idea of gifting will be forgotten

Zetectic 12-16-2016 04:18 AM

After reading Howl's post. True. So i don't want just trade that u can put 10 gifts in and fill 500 in no time. Prob 2-3 at max. And other person can leave it empty or add a gift back with a message

^this is what i call BS.
Unixmad would immediately add a trading system if iclassic lose about 10k g4g profit.

Bu strkien are like the ppl who gave out the most gifts than anybody in the game. Would u still call them a greedy cuz they g4g'd?

This is a game, we play to collect and pay money to get things we want. Don't call ppl greedy when they're feeding the server and unixmad.

+most people start with gifting their closest game buddies first and move on g4g.

Notice how its always in order: gifting buddies first->G4g->max out/help out friends or giveaway??

Gift 4 gift
 
I'd say not to change it, partly because it's part of Christmas like others have said with giving and not expecting to receive anything in return.

My main reason, however, is that it's pretty entertaining to see people rage about getting scammed. Not that I wouldn't rage as well if it happened to me.

I'm not referring entirely to the game itself, I'm referring to Christmas. You don't go around to relatives saying hey, give me something and I'll give you something of equal value. I never directed the greed at the person who scammed or the person who got scammed ether. It could be either. Neither have I said that everyone who does g4g is greedy.

Yeah but that doesn't necessarily get the scammers to go up in smoke

Raeven 12-16-2016 12:47 PM

And game or not Christmas is christmas , if it was just a game then they shouldnt have put xmas ingame or even new yr or any other irl holidays coz f*ck its just a game , making gifts tradeable sounds bs that wouldnt justify the word "gift"

Zetectic 12-16-2016 05:33 PM

if graal really wants christmas to be christmas. let us select the gifts and limit the total gifts to 50, 1 gift per each person.

right now, what i see in graal is just a business. which im not against. so either discourage scammers or improve it. don't say stuff like 'its at ur own risk' or 'use secret santa', when secret santa limits 10 per day.

for casual users like me with 40 gifts. it's like NP. but sympathizing with bu who gaveaway tons of gifts after maxing out and he wrote a status about how he feels bad that noobs who got scammed. just gotta support him.

yup. give to those who you feel deserve it. don't trade.

Weeno 12-20-2016 02:58 AM

Seriously though why would anyone want to do g4g when there's secret Santa.

Alexmo 12-20-2016 03:08 AM

And then there is lonelys like me with 3 gifts makes you want to scam to feel good

Sir Travis 12-20-2016 03:46 PM

Give me the ban hammer and I will walk through graal city like Sulla Felix :D

Just make more news about the Secret Santa. Maybe repeatedly
Repeatedly
Repeatedly
Oh yeah... You did

We got all year to debate changes for next time :)

But if you are crazy enough to sent gifts to strangers you really shouldn't expect anything in return. That's like... Extortion :o
