In the name of total accuracy, I chatted with some other users and there seems to be 2 Schools of Thought om GIFTING

GIFTER-BASED  They tend to treat their inbox like an "extra-bonus" allocation of Item & Assemblers. You sent items to people on their WL,  but may "surprise" them with gift-collections or AA or whatever ... They'll either accept the gift or ignore and often will accept it to have the possibility of passing it along to someone lese. Keep in mind that the  HC "TY Gift" makes it tantamount to "exchanging an extra item" for a random assembler ...

RECEIVER-BASED :  You to comply strictly with their WL and "Avatar Directives", they manage their inbox as part of the Game Resources and not "extra bonus full of nice-ot-have"  and Pearl perfectly explain their views on Gifting.

I have no knowledge of how the split goes between the 2 Schools nut I wanted to make people aware that both are VALID positions providing we respect each other choices and agree *BEFORE* any extra Gifting takes place.

So in conclusion, to avoid any gaffe or faux-pas, check with the user before  Gifting stuff that is not  on their WL or Requested ( apparently at the exception of AA ;) ... Anything else will be considered rude & misbehaving by  the "RECEIVER-BASED" school of thought users & may, indeed,  greatly hinder their game as explained in the other post ...
