Greeter stick
How many of you actually used yours? Mine's still sitting in my cabinet. I've only played a little over a month, but I feel my level's too high for me to use the stick now. :s

- I've never seen one... can I touch it?
- BTW, I've heard of a level 60 using a greeter stick (not sure how that happened), so as long as you feel like you have something to ask that won't waste the real-life greeter's time, go for it :).... or keep it forever as a monument to your total self-reliance.
- It is almost impossible to waste a greeter's time. On the other hand, don't feel obliged to use the stick, because once you do, it's gone.
- I'd love to buy it... how much do the things go for?
- Aren't they soulbound?
- As are Play Cubes. But I've figured out how to trade them at will. Same method would theoretically work on a greeter stick (I'd love to test my theory).
- Ah, I was not aware Greeter Sticks disappear once you use them. I think I'll keep mine as a monument(:
- Should I be envious that I never got one of these greeter sticks? :D
- I was just too enthusiastic about the game to actually use it, so I stuck it in the cabinet to make room in my pack for other stuff. Later, I invited my brother to play Glitch, and he told me how nice his greeter was, so I started wondering if I'd missed out on a key newbie experience. But I like like Shepherdmoon's suggestion to keep the stick as a souvenir, so that's what I'll do. :)

They are 100% soulbound and not able to be dropped, placed, SDB'd, but can be put in a bag in a cabinet.
Unless you actually do need help the nice people who greet in the game are all well known people who you will encounter on a daily basis anyway.
If I decided to use a twig just for the experience (which really is a waste of the greeters time but they are so nice I'm sure they wouldn't complain) I would suggest using it in a weird or instanced location that only one person could traditionally exist. - I used mine on almost as soon as I got it, and met the most wonderful Glitch. She has taught me so much, and still teaches me now! MyooKat <3s MerMaid 4 eva XD
- I have a greeters stick that I snuck out of an area I was not meant to be in. I cant bring myself to use it, if anyone wants to buy it send me a message. person with top price in next 24 hours can have it, if they know how to get it off me that is...
- Some soul-bound items can be transferred by putting them in a small bag and then trading the small bag.
- We tried that on the greeter stick in a bag and it said this bag cannot be traded/exchanged as it contains a soulbound item
- Here is how you waste a greeter's time: call one, then tell them when they arrive that you don't want to talk to them (or just run off without saying anything).

i think i somehow got rid of mine and i have no idea why i did that :(
(one time my bf was like, "you still have that thing?" and so i probably tried to be all grown up glitch about it and discarded it, but now i miss it as a souvenir.)
i actually had no idea what it did - i don't know how i completely glazed over that part, i just knew i had this stick in my bag for some reason. -
Does this happen?
Who would do such a thing?
How odd. - What in the world is a greeter stick? This is the first I've heard of it.
- EDDIE: behold--the Greeter Twig: i.imgur.com/DJ6Mo.png
- I thought it was a stick to find something.. like water. Then I tried to use it the other night and it told me all Greeters were busy. I like the idea, but maybe if there was a quest to make use of it earlier on in the game, like a tutorial, that would have helped greatly. Some newbs are afraid to ask people for help so that would be a nice ice breaker.

The tutorial tells you at the end how to use your stick. But maybe the tutorial tells you so many things that people don't really remember it.
In general, I don't mind greeting people (and meeting people), no matter what level they are. Meeting other players is fun.
But calling and then running away or refusing to talk is indeed a bit annoying. -
What Louis said.
As a greeter, I can tell you we wait anxiously for the needy Glitch to tweak their Twig and we are disappointed/frustrated to be ignored or ditched by the greetee. If you use your Twig, please at least stop to talk for a bit. We like to socialize and help other players broaden their experience of the game (and we have a wealth of information and experience to share)--those are the main reasons we became greeters. Many folks' first and longest friend in Glitch is their greeter. Don't run: start a friendship!
