Every where you go in Gaia you hear people asking for donations (or people being upset for being asked for one) and so I decided to try giving one myself. I never found any instructions anywhere and I asked in a forum but got no response. It would be nice if there was a button for donations like the add friend or buy gift (which should also be a give from inventory link!!!). Imagine how nice it would be to click on a beggar button, enter the amount, pw, and confirm. The only way I found is to trade. Should it be called trading if I give something and get nothing? My friend I picked to trade with (donate) was gracious enough to send an item back to make it a proper trade and I wonder if others do that too.
The trade system itself sounds interesting enough. Set up a trade in the forums or pm and send a pm and the agreed on terms. I wonder how many people get scammed doing it? I will have to try it out. Maybe a mini-shop for starters.........
