I give a lot of gifts too, I love it when people make boards(or billboards!) cause that's fun and I mostly gift strangers

but that is so not necessary.all I need is a nice thank you to know their happy, but I have had a few instances where all the person did was take the items off their wishlist :x i hate that and it makes me feel like i wasted money.

so i totally know where you're coming from and i'm sorry that happened to you snugs

Sorry that people are rude everyone <3 it's definitely happened to us all haha. Pact to be polite? At least we can try, right?

I'm sorry! But sometimes people clear all their events and then you know it, it's too late. :c But really, I say 'thank you for the gift' if I see the event. ^^

yeah, that sucks, but I've never had that happen to me. I don't really gift randomly. I guess I just like to keep to myself for the most part. When I do gift, it's pretty much just to my friends on here.

Although it's very rare, I did receive two gifts yesterday, and I did thank my friend. :)

Lol I usually give my peeps excuses like gift giving was botched up or something. I know where you're coming from XD

I'm sorry to hear someone was rude. I don't understand how anyone could not be thankful when given something. It makes no sense to me. I always try to send something back if i get something i would feel bad if i didn't even say thank you.

Aww, that's why I always try to say thanks every time someone sends me something. I hate that feeling. :c

It's awesome of you to gift people like that though. c:

I try to say thank you at least publically, especially when it's an anonymous gift. it really bothers me when people don't say thank you, so I get you. however I also understand when people click 'clear all' because they have so many events and miss it, because I've done the same thing before. ):

I honestly don't care if I gift and do not get any thanks. I usually gift anonymously for this reason. I don't like the recognition, it makes me feel awkward.

If I am gifted, I will usually say thanks, but I forget... a lot. I just get sidetracked then I delete the events and I have no idea who it was that sent it. I feel bad, but it happens.

Oh god that sucks. I'm sorry :(

At christmas I recieved over 200 gifts in my stocking, and I even C&P'd my events into Word and saved the list so I could thank every person, in fact I saw I still had it and it was only last week I was reading over it!

I was really shocked that random people had gifted me with things like a Liam on a Leesh. o_o

I alway try to thank people how gifted me, but for some reason these days, the event for gifts don't show up for me :P

Some folks may be a bit shy about saying thanks. I know it's the internet, but some people even carry their mannerisms over to the net, can you believe it?!

I only gift people when I see an item on their WL that I own, and don't like :P

Someone gift-bombed me once. And I deleted all the events on accident.

yup, i always say thank you, unless if the user is anonymous

Hehe you're a sweetie ❤️

I figured if people don't say thanks, then my gift probably didn't make a difference to them, and I'll just skip them next time :P

It's the thought that counts really, even if it's a little thing.

I don't mind much when people don't reply when I'm mass-gifting though, because I can't really remember everyone I gifted really :3 and I might forget to reply to some so x)

I always thank gift givers with sexual favors ;)

aw, that's too bad... but not everybody is going to be grateful. or see all their events, I guess. :|

I always get a little scared and confused and wonder if it's a mistake when someone gives me something. xD so I don't always say thanks either, haha. usually it's, "um... was that on purpose? ._." but I say thanks after that, don't worry. :B

People hardly even say thanks when you hold the door open for them. most people just dont use manners. and I agree that even a small thank you, is nice.

It is a common courtesy which sometimes seems to be lost upon people sometimes, that in itself is tragic. Somehow, I've rarely had that problem unless it's a random act of kindness that I'm doing for people. On occasion, I will forget to say something or get a bit scatter-brained.

To be honest, I don't really agree here...

Yes, when I receive a usual gift of someone (like a giftbox or just sending the item) I say thank you, except it's from a Wishlist Giveaway board. But that only happens every blue moon.

But I don't see the need to thank everyone for everything they send me. When I get Gift bombed it's always clear that I gift back because I only do it with 2 people, so why should I say thank you there?

Also I always remove all events when I come online, ignoring what they are. So, I don't think it's rude not to thank for every Anpan someone sends you (Replace Anpan with any cheap item you want). Of course if I get a gift that is worth a lot I'm thanking, but that doesn't happen very often.

For me it's like saying thank you when someone bought a high priced item from your shop. When someone thanks me because I send out some random gifts I'm more annoyed then happy Dx Dunno, maybe that means I'm mean, I don't know, but that was something I hate on dA a lot, when everybode says 'Thank you for the Fav!' because you did so.

That's why I send the gifts anonymous these days too. Saves me a lot of time Dx

I agree it is rude and thoughtless. And it bothers me. A lot. I will share one little story with you. Christmas before last I bought really nice gifts with sP for everyone on my friend list, but a few of them I bought stuff for from the cash shop. These were people that are especially close to me and we share more than Subeta, you know? Well, all of them said thank you except one. And it really hurt my feelings. So as last Christmas was approaching I told this person that they wouldn't be getting a gift from me (I was in a bad mood, what can I say? :P) When she asked why not I explained how her lack of saying thank you made me feel. It actually ended up being a good talk. She said she is the same way in real life and seldom offers thanks and I told her that it wasn't a nice way to behave. And she apologized and changed her ways. I am happy to report that she got extra gifts from me this year, and she said thanks to me. And I also knew some of the other people who were gifting her nad I checked their comments, she thanked them as well!

It is so easy to say thank you. Someone was thinking of you. Take the time to be kind.
