With the new addition of a wishlist, I think it would be reasonable that by gifting a certain amount of players an item on their wishlist, you would be able to get an acheivement.

For an example:
A has Lion Scrotum on their wishlist. As soon as you gift them a Lion Scrotum, no matter the original quantity on their wishlist, it will count as one player gifted.

I am aware of the fact that people may be able to "cheat" this achievement by adding items to wishlists and exchanging with their friends. So, my counter for this would be that the person gifted with only counts as one person, no matter how many different items you gift them.

Example:
A has Lion Scrotum and Buffalo Scrotum on their wishlist. B gifts A both Lion Scrotum and Buffalo Scrotum. However, it would still count as 1/?? people gifted.

(This would also encourage people to gift more! )

Gifting people is a wonderful thing, so why not encourage it with a small acheivement? :D

Sample achievements:

Generous Heart
Granted 10* lions an item on their wishlist

Shooting Star
Granted 25* lions an item on their wishlist

*A user has pointed out that the previous amount of "100 lions" may be too much for an achievement. I've adjusted it to a lesser amount to make the achievement less demanding.

Fab! ...it should also be added to the Leaderboard IMHO! :)

Encouraging you to essentially give a gift to one of EVERY player on the game- no matter how small or 'insignificant' the gift... COOL.

...and No, I don't care if this means people will get a lot of gifts given to them (on or off their wishlists, however it ends up working!) because you CAN turn off gift-accepting from your den if you don't like it. :)

Maybe you could earn a title once you pass a certain archivment or is that already applied to the December event?

I would definitely support this if it was implemented with the anti-cheating precautions you've laid out.

I support this, and it's good that it's only wish list items; someone could just dump their old feathers on another player and get an achievement if not :/
But anyway, support !

It always puts a smile on my muz to see a gift, and then I go ahead and gift someone in hope they will be enlightened too. This is a great idea. :)

Good idea! It would be lovely if there was some small reward for donating items. Maybe, after you've gotten the max achievement, you get some sort of exclusive decor?

No support. I love doing my best to get achievements and I'd rather not take a blow to my pocket just to earn one at the gain of another person. Yes, call it greedy, but your examples are the exact reason I'm not interested in it. Lion Scrotums, Buffalo Scrotums, GMO Cows, ect are hard enough to get as is and tossing them away for free for some achievement is not what you should be doing with such items.

"Then don't go for the achievement!"
I like collecting the achievments. What I don't like is being told to gift someone to get it, especially expensive items.

"You don't HAVE to give those items!"
When's the last time you've ever seen a wishlist with non-expensive items listed? It exists because it is something you wish you had but can't get your hands on easily.

Overall, it's just a grab for free stuff. If you do want to do this, 100 giftings is not realistic and way over the boundary of someone who is kind enough to give something up. 5 giftings is the maximum it should be, much like how you only need to buy 5 oasis items for the "Specialist Customer" achievment.

Heya, thank you so much for the input!

Now that I think of it, gifting 100 users for an achievement can possibly be be too ambitious. I'll gladly adjust it in the samples, but I think in the end, it's something that the admins would decide if this idea gets implemented. I'll note it down, though!

I'm hesitant to say that it's just a "grab for free stuff", though. I feel like the spirit of the LD community is one that is based on mutual kindness to one another, and I suggested this achievement to award, or at least pay tribute to this positive attitude in the community. If you don't want to gift away expensive things, but still want the achievement, then it doesn't take much to look for people who want easily accessible things like feathers, Broken Drones, or Dry Palm Leaves (one item would satisfy for one player). In the end, this is an achievement centring around an act of kindness, and I would especially be happy to see that both people gain something from the interaction -- you an achievement and them a nice surprise in their mail. Would you miss out on an item or two? Yes. Would you make this person's day and earn their friendship? In most cases, actually, yes!

Thank you, again, for the feedback! I really appreciate it, and I'll make a note in the OG post.
