Thanks for the clarification! I thought if you didn't have a tree people couldn't gift. Nice to know otherwise.

I do know how to do the sP quests but I don't have the time to devote to hours on end of questing.

I love giving and receiving gifts but I fully support anyone who doesn't want to give or receive gifts. It would be great for users to be able to block gifts if they wanted too.

I definitely support this

I support this. Some people like gifts, others don't. I try to respect wishes when its on their profile, but sometimes I don't go to the profile to gift. Or gift friends that way. It would be nice to have a -Sorry this user does not wish to be gifted- message and continue on. Even non-Luminaire, but still. It can't be any harder than it is to not harvest organs right?

This seams to be a fair option

I don't know how most people handle their random gifting, but I still gift when I see the options section on a profile, tree or not. I won't go out of my way to manipulate links to force a gift. And I don't give to receive a thanks or a pat on the back.

That said, I rely HEAVILY on wishlist search for each item, and if this was implemented, I would like to see it in conjunction with other suggestions I have seen about omitting inactive users, as well as the one where folks want the ability to make their wishlists private.

Lumi is as incredibly busy online as Christmas is offline. I already have quit MM because of random complaining that people don't gift in the right way, it's time consuming to find active users that need items, and now there's worry about anticipating which people find receiving gifts awkward. I get it (more than you know), and I'm in no way saying that people are wrong with the way they feel. Unless changes are made, though, this is another feature I won't be using (except with friends and dedicated threads).

Full support.

I wouldn't personally use it, but I can completely understand those that do want something like this so definite support here!

I fully support this; I don't know if I'd use it personally, but I get a lot of gift anxiety/issues in general.

Every crimmas & birthday i absolutely have a tiny little meltdown. I'm able to (read: force myself to) work thru it because it's something i want to be able to cope with/get over (it's part of a bigger self-worth issue for me) and i trust my friends and fam, but on subeta sometimes it's just way easier to just not sometimes, yknow?

in a perfect world not having a tree on your profile and a little 'hey please don't, thanks!' message would be respected, but i don't think people take it seriously. they genuinely mean well, tho, is the thing so. it'd just be easier to turn it off without all the fuss and stress.

This suggestion has my full support. I didn't want to participate in Luminaire gifting this year for personal reasons, but someone(s) already pulled the URL trick on me so I kind of felt like I was 'forced' to participate (nothing against them as there was no way they could know). It would be nice if there was a clear indication whether or not someone wants to be gifted and some way to see their choice BEFORE someone else goes out to buy the gift, just so the gift giver doesn't need to worry about reselling it when the receiver has gifts blocked.

I'm not nearly as active anymore on this site and while I'm grateful for people who send me gifts, it makes me uncomfortable because I'm not able to thank people in a timely manner, and I don't really have enough sP to return the favour. :(

It'll also be helpful for story anons, if ever those are still a thing -- some people probably just don't want to receive gifts of any sort, and seeing a "Sorry, you can't send a gift to this user!" in all possible instances saves possible misunderstandings.

I'm in full support of this!

Full support on this.

I am so uncomfortable receiving presents. I usually try not to even voice this, because there are so many people who disrespect these feelings. Even IRL for me, people tell me "Oh well, it makes me happy to give presents." Like okay I guess my feelings don't matter though? I thought the point of giving a gift was to make someone happy, not make them uncomfortable but cool bruh. You do you I guess.

Anyways, this year I'm only gifting very close friends that I talk to on a regular basis. I am sure come the day to open the trees though I am going to regret that, and feel like absolute garbage over it but yep. That's just about every year am I right. T_T

Supporting this for the people who really do not wish to be gifted. I made the mistake already and I'm still unhappy with myself over it.

I'm all about the gifting and such, but I can definitely understand people who aren't, or people who simply don't want to participate, and they should have the option to be able to back out.

Definitely supporting this.

Yes please!!

Completely, totally, 100% full support for this.

Support. I stick to gifting threads for Luminaire to make sure everybody I'm gifting actually wants something, but the more thorough things are, the better.

yeah i want this too.. i saw my tree and it has the 'full' presents, even tho i have on my profile and my forum text to not gift me.

it gives me hella anxiety and i dont 'play' subeta enough to have sp to get extravagant things for people and it sucks.

i know they mean well but i wish they'd just... read the stuff i put down

I feel like people's preferences on receiving gifts should be respected with more options. No reason to cause people extra stress unnecessarily. :c Also, some people might like lumi trees but not like receiving gifts so uncoupling that somehow would be nice.
