How you deal with in game beggars
How do you guys deal?
I've been getting trade requests too much lately and cannot even.
like I'm cool with giving out some stuff but jesus. It's like you attract more as soon as you feed one.
sos I need help.

Just turn off trade requests in system settings and generally you'll be free from people randomly opening trades lol. I find it a bit annoying when some random opens a trade window when I'm trying to do something F3 like chatting with my friend. Just use something like the a teleport to another town skill like Mercedes' link skill, alternatively if you're a phantom, use the Lumiere skill (airship ftw), or if you're not in town... Open a mystic door and walk in. '-'
I ignore them unless i like their IGN and/or their character is cute.
I would try to educate them.
If they say please I give them money, if they say plz I don't and defame them.
I talk back in french, or chinese.
"Je n'ai pas beaucoup de 'meso'..."
Learn to "even".
OT: Give them like 5m if they seem like new players. Otherwise, I usually trade them and not say anything.
f6 at them.
Give a man a fish, feed them for a day; teach a man to fish, feed them for life.
I usually try to give a decent amount of mesos to new players but sometimes they try to take advantage of you.
Last week this guy asks me if I can buy him some mastery books because he couldn't afford them. I was feeling pretty generous and gave him 20m. He then asks if I could also help his friend buy one, I was a bit hesitant but said I would if it was only one more person. He said he was going to go get him and then went away. At that point I was getting a little suspicious as to why he didn't just message his friend so I used /find on him. I saw cc'd to channel 2 and then logged off. A few seconds after this other guy logs on and tells me that he was that other person's friend. At this point I got pretty annoyed but still wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, so I asked him where his friend was. He didn't answer and just kept asking me for mesos. I told him I would help him out as long as his friend also logged on while he was still logged on. He went quiet for a few minutes and then continued to follow me trying to make up a bunch of obvious excuses like "he had to go" and "we share a computer".
smh
I just say i'm in debt cause I actually am in debt with a few friends .
I give 'em 100k, ignore them, or troll them. Speaking of maple, I haven't been on in forever o.e
I usually give a certain amount that would round down to the nearest zero number. If I have 15,678,910 - I give 5,678,910 mesos.
I use my Hyper Tele Rock to move to another continent.
What I do is to block trade. If they ask, I act afk. I don't mind sharing I do daily give away of solid gollux stuffs but sometimes people tend to take advantage of your kindness.

see this is what i say and like they dont stop ;__;
I usually hand out 100k to them and then just ignore them. Its no loss to me, it doesn't help them at all, and yet I don't feel as bad for completely ignoring them.
I learned to ignore them. At first I give a beggar a weapon or some pots...then they continue to ask for more. What's even more hilarious is when I have a sw wand and someone trades me asking if I want to buy their crappy wand. lol
Put in 1 meso at a time into the trade.
I lecture them about how easy it is to get a lil bit of mesos (usually they ask for ~10m), ways to get them and at the end of my lecture if they haven't left already I give them 20m.
I'll pretend I'm poor and quickly leave LOL
I like to share wealth with others, but sometimes its too much. Isn't hard to get 1mil. Just play the game.
Dude it's like you're popular or something. Be happy.
