    Do you send your internet friends presents? If you do, how often?
     
    Back in the day, I thought about doing so. Besides maybe a free game on Steam though, I haven't sent an internet friend a present before.
     
    I've gifted my friends dozens of LoL skins back when I played LoL. I've also gifted supportership and shiny Pokemon! Giving gifts is one of my favorite things to do even if the other person doesn't care for it much x)
     
    i'd like to consider my presence to be their presents. :)
    but in all honesty no, none that i can recall
     
    I've written a story and made a song for an online friend before. The former was for his birthday, and the latter for christmas.
     
    I have in the past! I'd send cards around the holiday, letters, and in some cases I have sent gifts :) I don't remember if it was for Christmas or birthdays or what though x__x

    I like doing things like that. A few of my online friends outside this forum regularly send letters and I love getting them. It's fun to be able to have something tangible when everything is pretty much digital with these friendships.
     
    I'm making the attempt to get back to sending cards/letters to a friend I met online. (Your card is coming, Sneas! It's just my desk is a mess!) I haven't really sent much else out gift-wise to friends.

    It really is! I keep letters and cards sent by online friends, even if I haven't really talked to them much in recent times. The card is a physical reminder of the friendship!

    That's super sweet actually.



    Anyway. I've been pen pals with w couple of ppl from here, it was like 10 or 11 years ago tho. One of them sent me a cute little bit of embroidery with my name on it and another a bracelet, and I sent some frdinds manga and penguin charm too.
     
    I've done it in the past and would probably do it again. More often than not, it's just little digital items because those are easier to send online buuut... I've sent a few actual gifts through the mail before too. I usually only do it for friends I know well, but then there was a year I did Christmas cards for any random followers who signed up for one on Tumblr and ended up doing sketches and cards for a whole bunch of people I barely knew. :'D
     
    Yes! I did a gift swap with my friend purple_drake from Australia years ago - she sent me little Pokemon figures and a cute little towel with Aussie slang on it, and Moogles and I sent each other Pokemon plushies. I've done a couple other little exchanges, mostly of cards during the holiday season (Jax even sent me a fan fic!). I also went to an internet friend's wedding recently with a bunch of other internet friends, and I got Icelandic chocolate from Dragonfree and a Pokemon glass and notebook from Negrek! <3

    I send them love and insults, but nothing physicals.
     
    I was offered to be given a gift but I couldn't accept it even though it was awesome. We still talk though.
     
    I've sent a card in the past, and given a few online gifts. Outside of that... Not really. And not in quite a while either. Maybe I should, but who, and what for, and what... I'm terrible with gifts anyways 8)
