So, my mail box is now completely full from people on my friends list and faction sending me demands for items. I am constantly having to delete mail. This, along with being spammed because I am someone's love match, or a noobs potential friend, is becoming extremely annoying. b:angry

Is there a way to decline these mails? Or to take my name off the list of people begging me?

New update is cool, but there is some extremely annoying aspects.

    I agree. I used the find thing for the laughs. I regret using it. It is so annoying, I want to turn it off. The begging thing as well, some people can't take a joke when you send one. They flame about it in faction chat and then two minutes later they are spamming everyone with it.

    I have to agree with this.

    This feature can be easily be used to spam/annoy/harass other people b:angry

    This makes me almost want to completely purge my friend list and leaving faction because of the insane demanding mails I got in one day (although they seems to be joking about it), it became more of a nuisances b:angry

    Go to your match settings uncheck all "find mentor", "find friend", "find lover" uncheck it all and you wont be listed on matchings.

    Its not the matching system problem, got to Boutique and you will see "send" and "want" button, and you can send those to your friend list or faction member.

    Its like an advance version of begging gold items from boutique b:surrender

    I thought it was hilarious sending people nonsense through the "want" option, but yeah.. clearly this is in need of fine tuning to prevent abuse.

    Lol, sucks to be a big cs'er/known person I guess.

    Honestly I didn't see it as much of an issue though, seeing I'd just kick an annoying person like that off my FL. And if it happened in faction, I probably wouldn't be the only one getting it, causing a reaction of the officers xD

    Ewwww really? People from your friend list spamming? Let's say first time is ok, I'd tell them the joke ain't funny, but second time off the FL they go.

    Yeah, honestly, sounds like a friends/associates problem not a feature problem.

    I like this new feature because you no longer need to meet in person and trade so things are faster. A couple of my friends tried it once for the lolz and after that they stopped. I didn't have any spam issues.

    The same applies with the perfect match feature. I tried it out and check unchecked everything so I'm no longer listed thus no spamming.

    I sent a few of my facmates some toothbrushes for the lols, one of them sent me some SOS fireworks back. Nobody constantly spammed each other though. If you're getting spammed by an overzealous friend who thinks it is sooo funny, tell them to stop. If they won't leave you alone and harass you with it, then I'd delete them permanently. I think the fun of this will go down once it stops being new though.

    There should be more like a general "wish list" rather then "want D: gimme" for a specific person on fl.

    I've had no problems only problem is that's sin is called Pantys and from time to time I get spammed but I ignore it and it goes away.

    I find it difficult on my 101 veno since a lot of lowbies need help when I'm not able to do anything due to being busy already.

    As for the want and gimmes haven't had any problems with it haha
