GM Events Friend Invites

[Basil Darkratte]

Now, I know you all saw a player asking a Gm, " Can you be my friend?" or, " Can I join your guild?"
Why do people keep asking this when on the site it tells you that the guild is only for POTCO Staff?
As for the friend part, the GM always replies, " ( enter name here) I'm friends with everyone!"

I can understand why the GM's can't friend invite. If one person does it, everyone will want to do the same thing. Plus, there will always be bragging.
