I don't know if it is only me being plagued by them lately but, I have to gripe about people begging stuff from other people that don't even know them. To me it is infuriating, annoying and really puts me off the idea of random acts of generosity, as it appears as this random gifting via forums tends to mark me as a sucker for what ever sob story that someone thinks of typing up to send me. For those guilty of begging like this, then for everyone else's sake, stop it and do what everyone else has to do to get items, earn yourself the gold and buy it yourself.

For those who like me are suffering from the random acts of begging, best thing to do is run them out of dodge and give them nothing, as this might show the beggars that they won't get anywhere without at least trying to get things themselves. Friends are another matter altogether, as you should try to help out your mates where ever you can, if you can, but strangers do not deserve the time of day when they come out asking for alms, as it is down right insulting in the first place, as well as demeaning to the giver as well as the beggar
