gingerbred.livejournal.com...if you can. Keep in mind, you can always open a Runestone gift, you can't be gated as you might be by full energy or ingredient vaults, so please, PLEASE do so. DO NOT worry about reciprocating.
1) Firstly, I don't want people engaging in risky behaviour just to collect gifts. That's bonkers. Give when you have them, and let people decide for themselves if they feel like sending if you can't reciprocate; don't try to make that decision for them. And please don't worry that they may have taken it poorly if no more show up; they simply may not have any to send. (The flip side of that is: try not to get bent out of shape if someone doesn't play as much as you do, or lives less opportunely and can't reciprocate. There shouldn't be any pressure here. This is a game mechanic designed to keep people feeling *obliged* to play, which is just rubbish. Don't feed into that. Let's try to take the positives without the negatives here.)
2) Especially with conditions as they are now and everyone's mobility impeded, when people are able to get gifts to send, it's a shame if they aren't able to. We can only stockpile 30 gifts. Your not opening gifts means they may have to throw gifts away. (I was able to get out both yesterday and the day before, I ended up having to throw out energy gifts because my vault was full and there was no one left to send them to. When I used the Fortress both evenings, I had to throw out still more, because I didn't want to waste potential Runestone gifts. That's a shame.)
Beauty*, Handsome*, Lumi*, and Spf* please either PM me your friend codes or post them here so I can add you. (gingerbredshaus is currently locked out of the game again for technical reasons...) Just add the rest of your nick so I know it's you. 😉
ETA: there have been some people complaining on boards about the Runestone gifts. (I think they're bonkers, but that's just me.) If for any reason you prefer the little Energy gift (or the Ingredient gift, for that matter) to the Runestone (keep in mind we're talking maybe three energy here), speak up now and here so people know what to prioritise for you. Cheers! 😊
