That was scary for a minute, I thought I knew you...just the way you spelled your nickname and the hair on your HA and the way you do your :] smilies...but then I saw you were from America. Relief I didn't like that girl. X;D I know; what're the chances, but it was kind of a horrible flashback to highschool.

Anyyyyway, I totally agree; a simple thank you makes someone feel nice. Honestly? I disagree with most of the people here when they say about how they don't need to bother and such; that's the wrong attitude D=

If no one bothered, what state would the world be in? DX

I usually always try to tell a person thanks when I've been gifted. I still write out thank you cards to people who gift me things in RL as well. I do agree it gets depressing after gifting someone and not getting a thanks.

I honestly was never brought up in a house where manners were a big thing, but I'm still super anal about saying thank you. I compulsively say it and if I think I've forgotten to say it, I say it like 15 more times.

It actually bothers me that most people on Subeta don't like for you to comment them and say thanks for buying from my shop. Although, given, I don't like to receive those comments either haha. I just think about convenience store guys who say thank you come again every time you buy a pack of gum or gas.

I don't know! I don't care about receiving thanks too much, but I make sure to give them. I'm probably annoying lol.

I think it is different to say thank you for buying from my shop. (I don't enjoy those comments either.) 99% of the time I buy from a shop because it is on the top of the list, not because it is anything personal. But sending a gift to someone IS personal. You take your time (hopefully) to find just the right thing for that person, because you want to make them happy. To me that is a whole different ballgame than random shop purchases.

i do and don't agree

it's a thing i do since my neo days, i always thank the person that sent me something, no matter what it is.. but sometimes, it's annoying generally, i'm not a person that easily thanks others cause, in a way, to me it seems like somebody helped me with something i didn't WANT help with

and i never send gifts to anyone unless it's for a friend i just cant make myself care about anybody's wishes unless they're on my friends list

To be honest, I don&;t really agree here...</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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?</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>That&;s why I send the gifts anonymous these days too. Saves me a lot of time Dx

Your situation is totally different, one because you are on a gift giving thread. And two the only people you seem to bomb are friends so its more of a mutual thing you know you're thankful twords eachother and return the favor.

The OP is more or less talking about random people getting gifts and not bothering to say thank you, which should happen IMO. :P

Gift anonymously - it's more fun. You don't have higher expectations. Like me, sometimes I don't even REALIZE I've gotten a gift because I clear all my events when I log on. I also don't stay on for long spouts so any gifts I get and forget who sent them, I just thank in the thread. If I don't say thank you, I've probably already paid-it-forward.
