I always know. How? One of the main things on there is I don't accept players under level 30 and below 2 stars. That's the very first thing I look for in invites. If I see you don't have those requirements, I know you didn't read my wall. I wouldn't take a chance and accept you cause I already know what type of player you are.
As for gifting, I have very little neighbors. A little over 40. My neighbors and I have a communicative relationship. As said on my wall, they know they can tell me when their gifts change and same for me. They know I'm busy and only gift by news feed. They know I don't like receiving basic parts - just goal and cappuccino.
Out of them all, only 2 want basic parts after goals. I know the rest only want cappuccino. So at reset, I only have to go through the gifts list twice alone.
As for goals, I just gift what I want in return. My neighbors and I tend to complete goals at the same pace so when I'm ready for capp, they are too.
Only a little few (like 1 or 3) will let me know "Syddie, I still need this" and I'll gift what they want cause on my wall I have the rule to tell me when your gifts change.
However, this peaceful playing style is crumbling cause all my neighbors are doing various goals. It's frustrating when they're so caught up in cooking to forget to post what they want. And when they do post, every body wants something else! Then you must go from a 3 minute gifting at reset to 20. Please note reset for me is 3 am. Plus all the pressing since gifts for 5 days goals are so far away like capp.
