When playing Teradeer I wear only the zombie pelt (no mask, no antlers) most of the time. Usually if someone casts a spell on me I get the impression it is either A) because they are asking me to do the same for them or B) it is simply in good fun. I don't usually get this attention any more often than I do when playing Queze (who's set consists of antlers, pelt, and mask), though I have noticed people tend to give pelt spells to deer they see as 'naked' (meaning not wearing a pelt).

Really, I don't see this as a problem. Giving each-other spells is part of the game and an important part; the more people express a dislike for being spelled the more difficult it is for new players to enjoy forest magic. They end up walking on eggshells, "I can't spell them, they are an older player and will get mad!" and it has already become very hard to find deer in-game who are willing to help get a set; players never used to have to resort to posting a blog to get that sort of attention. Spell-casting only becomes a problem when a player ignores another players wish not to be cast upon, that's just disrespectful. Still, there are plenty of ways to momentarily avoid magic, so players do have 'defensive' tactics available to them.

I personally find letting said deer get one spell away from a complete peacock set, and then reloading my deer's spells to be very gratifying! C<

All of my characters wear pelt, mask, and antler combinations (aside from Blixt), but I understand where you're coming from. Generally I give a spell to anyone who isn't wearing any spells at all, or occasionally to someone who isn't wearing a mask/antlers/pelt. But if they immediately sneeze it off, I understand that to mean "This is how my character is supposed to look". I'll bow and nod my head afterward to try to say "Sorry I didn't know".

So in other words, if someone casts on you, just sneeze it off, shake your head, and bow. I think that should be understandable.

Edit - As far as mini-deer, I don't cast pelt spells on them unless I'm sure they want the spell. The only person I really associate this with is Kaoori, if she's not wearing her nightfall pelt I'll take the time to give it to her.

I run around the forest naked. I don't like other animal spells casted on me. Unless I loose the bunny spell and I request help getting it back.

Well, recently I started playing as my new deer, Aislinn, and her set is simply a pelt and some flowers/candles, though she doesn't always wear anything on her antlers. I did get spellspammed with masks a little bit yesterday, but it was all in good fun, and I just sneezed off the masks afterwards. But what really annoys me is spellspammers who spam pelts onto minis. It's so annoying. I wish that being a mini automatically stopped you from having more pelt spells cast on you, or something like that. >_>

I understand that the action is there to be used, and I don't have a problem with being spellspammed. I'll just reload my set when they're done, or even join in. But it just annoys me that when you're a mini and you go AFK and your deer falls asleep, nearly every single time I come back I have a different pelt, so I have to go and get my old one back. It's not a huge deal, but it still gets on my nerves a little. But casting pelts on minis hasn't really got anything to do with what this discussion is about. XD
