No Begging In The Marketplace?

It seems lately that there has been a lot of noobs begging for prints to get them started. Obviously its not offensive, but it is annoying. Rather continually telling people to check out the spore rings or spend the cash at the vendors, wouldn't it make more sense to start a new rule that no begging is allowed. Something like: Please do not create posts asking for prints without offering something in exchange. Please see our list of reputable vendors for your spore requirements. This could also direct a little more traffic towards the vendors. Any threads then found in violation of the rule could be locked with the above statement inserted.

You wouldn't have a spare print to give me, would ya? 
No seriously though, I agree... the Marketplace is about trading, afterall. Offering to give prints away is one thing, but asking for them? Doesn't seem fair to me...

Thank the liberals.
Why work when you can ask for a handout?
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

I agree 100%. There is no reason to beg. If someone wants a print they could offer plenty of legal non-myco thing for trade.

I think this is probably a good idea but will leave it to the discretion of the Marketplace Mods, who have been notified of this thread.

that is not true, unless by some chance the parents were aware of it or somehow directly involved in the growing or selling.
