Obviously, I would take h, because that option doesn't exist and inviting them to vana and then going on solo to see them wasting 10 energy is just SO EBIL that it actually is not worth doing so.. because they may have 5* friends HURR

Option Z...

I just play the 'Why do you need it?" game.

Example:

B(beggar): Can I have some crowns?

M(me): Why do you need it?

B: I need it to buy something.

M: Why do you need to buy something?

B: I need it to get better gear.

M: Why do you need it to get better gear?

B: I need it to get better gear so I can get better at the game.

M: Why do you need it to get better at the game?

B: I need it to get better at the game because it is a very good weapon.

M: Why do you need a very good weapon to get better at the game?

B: So I can kill monsters faster.

M: Why do you need it to kill monsters faster?

B: OMGSTOPITSTOPITIMGOINGCRAZYSTOPSTOPSTOP (head explodes)

M: :)

I don't really come across beggars that I feel worth doing this to, I usually ignore, but sometimes I just do this to annoy them. Once, some guy got REALLY annoyed, and sent me a friend request asking me to stop. Then he ran away. Probably to a different Haven. A second time, I did it on some old guildy who had left the guild, and had scammed me once, so I felt obliged to do it to him. He got really annoyed too, and called me a little (male part), and ran away. I felt satsified after that.

Maybe I'm just a jerk...

I prefer to taunt them with my sort-of-richness.

-When they send a trade request, accept it.
-Input 50,000cr or so.
-Watch them freak out for a few seconds.
-Say something like "whoops, I thought you were someone else, nvm."
-Cancel the trade.
-Observe reaction from a safe distance.

None of the above

I play poker in the trade window with them if they start dumping junk mats in the window to entice me to give them something.

If they don't ante up, I fill the window with the most valuable things I can, and/or the largest round number of CR and CE I have available, and I go make a cup of tea.

I do this..

I show them my stuff and leave for a minute or so.. Usually they stay for a while waiting for me to hit confirm. Then I go back and say I was afk soz and then get rid of all my valuable items and put in a scrap metal. I only do this to beggars who are unusually persistent.

LOL heres one technique I use

LOL heres one technique I use for really stubborn beggars:

Step 1: When beggar trades, accept.
Step 2: Put in 1 crown.
Step 3: Hit confirm.
Repeat steps 1 to 3 for continued desperation from the beggar, and play this

If it's a small sum of cr, materials or a spare weapon I have, I hand it over.

If not, I ignore them. Beggers don't really bother me.

Well, I guess this isn't particularly evil but...

Pretend beggar is an old friend, congratulate him on his recent shadow lair run. Compliment his great nooby-looking disguise.
Watch rising frustration.

Doc: "You want to wait more time to get your money? Okay"

I start going on about how my family abandoned me and I'm a poor guy living on the street with nothing but an extremely lagged-up laptop, and then start stating reasons why he should give me crowns/CE instead.

.

1. Force them to give a well-reasoned and supported argument, employing appeals to logic and emotion (They lack any credibilty by begging). Anyone who encounters me better work for their money.

2. Punch in a lot of money and head to the toilet.

3. Force them to quote from various movies and works of literature. I'm leaning on dialogue from Pulp Fiction and prose of Wordsworth at the moment, but anything else is possible.

4. Convince them that a player of merit would earn their money through work. If I managed to grind my way up to 12+ 5* swords and still remain free to play, they can earn whatever amount they ask for.

I know people that put 10k ce

I know people that put 10k ce in the trade screen, then go afk for a long, long time.

I personally ignore/report them. Tell them to stop spamming, and if they don't, report.

Stay a while and Listen!

I tell them to work hard and get their own crowns!

Or I call in my Angelic thugs to do the dirty work of "divine condemnation and tossing him/her into the bottomless burning pit".

Then I eat cookies and cakes :3.

Here is one for Psychodestroyer for being a good man!

Beggars, eh...

Well, i'll probably do it like this,

Beggar: I need 2100 crowns

Me: You know, no-one likes beggars, did you know that?

Beggar: ... (yep, they usually just ignore me, and ask someone else for crowns...)

Me: *Going to do my own business*

That's good way to troll beggars.

Wouldn't it be funny if your younger brother/sister hit confirm while you were at the toilet? :3

It would be: d) Give

It would be:

d) Give crown.
e) Advice them.

Or, I tell them to go get me some flowers from western bazaar. That makes them confused.
