How To Ignore Gift Requests When Using JGrabAllGifts
Share:
The most irritating thing about gifting events is hanging on to the gifts that are useless now but will have value when the event is repeated or expired. While a gifting event is active, accepting a gift that you have already mastered does nothing for you. In the example below, I have mastered the LCD Monitor on the Gold Level. When I accept one, it doesn't count towards anything and is a waste of one of my 200 requests for the day. Deleting requests after I mastered a gift isn't a good idea either because I will regret it when it's time to replay the event.
The solution to this problem is right in JGrabAllGifts. I've talked about this tool many times on this blog. Since the third gift is of the current gifting event is going to unlock in three hours, this is a good time to review this feature. You can ignore any type of request that you want and it will save them to open at a later time. Simply open up the program and select "Options".
Now check the box that says "Skip gifts that contain:" and a box will open up for you to type in.
Now type in any word located on the requests that you don't want to open. For our current gifting event, I typed Monitor for the LCD Monitor requests and Spindle for the Blank CD Spindle requests. You can use any part of what is on the request and it will be skipped.
You can use any part of what is on the request and it will be skipped. I also skip energy so when it's time for me to hunt for Mini Energy Packs they won't have been accepted when I didn't need them. Your Facebook request page will only hold 100 gifts at a time so if you have more than 100 gifts you want to save you will have to wait util they get pushed back by new requests.
When it's time to replay the event two more times, you can adjust the number of gifts to accept, add and remove the gift request phrases as needed. Once you've mastered the gifting event 3 times, you will want to ignore all of the requests until the event expires. Once this happens, all the gifts will be converted to Mystery Bags so they are worth hanging on to. If you don't have enough requests from your mafia, use the Get-a-Nator from Team Spockholm and do a Facebook refined search looking for the gift links you need. I do hope this is the last of the gifting events for a while. The whole process is a pain and something I could do without. If you've never used JGrabAllGifts, watch the video Josh made to explain how it works.

Don't like any of these options to get your Free Gifts? Enjoy the few hours of accepting gifts that it will take for you to master a Zynga gifting event.
Thank you so much for reminding people of this AWESOME tool. I've been using it for over a year and it is simply FANtastic!

All I get is Thanks for trying JGrabAllGifts. You appear to be using Firefox. Google Chrome is the best browser to use with this script but Firefox works as well *IF* configured correctly. You need to either disable the pop-up blocker or just be sure to allow "www.facebook.com" for this script to work. Try accepting ONE gift as a test, make sure you see a pop-up window somewhere and check that pop-up window to make sure you received your gift before doing more than one gift while using my script with Firefox. Thanks!
I disabled my pop up blocker and pretty much every single add on. I can't imagine anything else causing a conflict.
Thanks for this info. I'm not sure if it has always been there or not. I have used JGIFTS for months now, but never for MW. With this feature, I can now use it with MW.
~~> I realized that I can use this IGNORE feature to get ONLY the "insert gifting event name here" items I need. ---> Eg. If I only need 10 more of "gift.1", I can IGNORE "gift.2" & "gift.3" and set the "Max number of gifts to grab" to 10.

a really good program but opening too many windows or tabs is always a problem for me, it slows things down!

I use Josh's tool all the time and while it's grabbing the gifts I use the tabs it creates to return the gifts that need returning. It's a great tool.
