A Big NO to a Moocher

I am sure you are aware that some people are tagged as 'moochers,' people who always ask for freebies. For me, it is fine to do this. In regards to a mobile app that I have been active on lately, there are so many 'moochers' who ask for gifts, coins, etc. It is a platform where we can earn some extra cash. But then, some just receive the coins and the like, and they do not give back in return. The aim is to reach a certain quota to have a free bonus with this application. So, I only choose people who will help me out, and all of us can reach the goal to earn at the same time. What is your opinion about it?

I've never been on an app like that. But we have the same type of people in real life. They ask and ask and no matter how much you've helped them, they never want to help when you need to ask.

It is indeed not a good thing. Now, I need to control people sitting on my panels. It is best to throw the coins or gifts to my main account on this mobile app.

@DaddyEvil I think it is fine. I like it better than the other app that I used to play in.

Those who always ask are usually lazy people who prefer to ask than to help themselves and when you are in need forget to get help from them.

You described them well. I also had a friend on this app that turned out to be like a sloth. At first, he gives back what I give to him. Eventually, he became a moocher. Now, he was trying to persuade and apologized about this concern. I am still thinking if I can still give him another chance.

@LadyDuck That is not a good thing. I would surely feel disappointed if I were in your shoes.

@Shavkat - We had a friend who was all the time asking for "a little money" because he had to buy something absolutely necessary. We found out that he spent the money to go out to dine with his girlfriend.

I think you are smart to do it that way. I know a few real life moochers, and they are so bad they embarrass themselves.

I agree with you. Since they tend to be moochers, they cannot enter other hosts' lives on this mobile app.

I totally agree with you. It needs to stop being so generous with these people.
