Any number of gifts in a day, including one, is just great. Since I have a bit less than 100 friends, I use TT to gift all of them once a day. On most days everyone gets a couple, and LBS and wiki friends a few more. I don't keep track of how many I'm gifting, but roughly speaking I try and give more to those having the most difficulties with the game. And then there a finally a small number who are gifters extraordinaire, and I try to show appreciation there with generous gifting. Whatever is comfortable for you is the key. I don't expect any kind of "Keep up with the Joneses" mentality. I help because helping feels good.

I have gone through a number of name changes, and the one I have now .....NoVisit, seems to have the greatest effect. Still get some people charging pictures, a very small number touching puzzles (argghh!).

As far as cleaning the board, I generally play the pictures with charges first, and that seems to keep LBS at bay, at least for me. Others are not so lucky, so this is an area where it is definitely "Your Mileage May Vary".

It is sometimes painful, but I have had to delete friends that are just more painful to manage than it's worth. I get that they probably don't know any better. On the other hand if they visit often and thoroughly, gift seldom and don't have LBS, I delete with just a modicum of remorse.

Hope that helps.
