i usually either just say no flat out or accept them and remove them later. i tend to feel bad about saying no but then i realize it's a game and they should know that.

i still feel a bit bad but i need people on my friend's list that can help me, not hurt me.

I was curious about that, because I chose this option several times as well.

Please! Give us a kick from boat button! How the heck do they get on the boat without being in the Guild or being your friend anyway? I never understood that.

They are either someone else's friend who is on the boat, or I found the other night that a noob clicked me as I was launching my boat and then came to me from there.

In our guild we are asking members to ask before just appearing on a boat. I think it is only manners. Or we announce that we are going plundering and invite any guild members.

I appreciate when people ask me "Hey, you going out sailing?" or some such, but to just appear on my ship irks me. I like what your guld does, asking if anyone wants to go.

I had a lv24 just "appear" on my ship. No one else was on but me, so I was really confused about how he got there without being a "Friend" or in our guild. The idiot was shooting at a Revenant as I was trying to get to Cuthroat to finish a quest. I let the Revenant sink us by turning away from whichever cannon he ran too. Then as we were about to lose the hull, I typed "Stay off my ship".

If you're about to sink, "return" using the map. That way, you avoid the groggy.

There is a glitch that hit's if you wait too long to "return" that allows you to stay out of jail, but any time you try to TP anywhere, it says you can't TP from jail. In other words, the game "sees you" as "in jail" even though you never actually went to jail or got groggy. It was worth it to me to aggravate the stowaway with going to jail.

I wish there was the option to disable friend request too. In toontown that's the first thing I do when I log on.

I don't find it hard to just hit no anymore. The majority of the friend requests I get are from people that don't bother talking to me so I don't feel guilty about turning them down. But it is annoying when that window pops up blocking my view when I'm busy doing something so I would love to be able to not get the pop-ups.

I just click the X and move on. My friend list has only 4 people on it, and they are people who don't get their feelings hurt when I say I want to train alone.

I had to drop my guild because people were either too sensitive about you not saying hi when you're in the middle of a tough battle, or they just TP to you and start swinging on enemies without so much as a "mind if I join in?".
