Something to consider

[Fyrce]

I like to donating to new players. The problem is distinguishing between the new players and the professional beggars. Maybe an NPC Ally Santa where players Elves can donate items and new players can get 1 item a day. Gold could also be donated in set amounts. It can be abused but should be less annoying than beggars. Maybe 1 in Windmoore, 1 in Travellers, and 1 in Kraag? Redeeming players would not be able to see the gift. It is random and blind.
