Problem..

(Sorry if this is in the wrong section)

I don't know if anyone else has had this happen, but this dude is ALWAYS online and sending me Creatures. Not that I HATE getting Creatures through the warp, I'd just like to go online in Docking Station without getting a Creature every two seconds.... If anyone could help me work on a fix it would help me a lot.
Thanks :)

You can block him. Stay offline when you start your world up, set his status as blocked, and then when you go online you shouldn't get Creatures from him anymore.

I don't feel we need to know this person's username to fix the problem. Just set them as a red frowny face in your contacts list and you shouldn't get any more norns from them.

People use the warp differently - when I'm online, I usually clear out my worlds of norns and hope that someone will send some new norns back to me, or strike up a chat. All too often I just get knockbacks. :( Does anyone have any more tips on warp etiquette that might be applicable?

I just updated me "receive from" list... It was set to "recieve from any online user" :$. Sometimes I think my brain is made of cheese, lol. Sorry about the name, Malkin I didn't think it would cause any problems.
Thanks for all your help :)

Reason why I view naming people from the warp as problematic is that that person isn't on the forums and can't rebutt a frustrated statement by saying why they do what they do.

It's not necessary, and it effectively labels them as an annoying newbie to the forum-going community. :( It could even be that they periodically send out norns to meet new people, if they don't know about the Who's Online page.

I didn't know about the Who's Online page, so thanks for posting that!
